The study is devoted to the analysis of the pragmatic basis of constructing fake reality and its components in the form of standard fake manifestations. The aim of the work is to identify the differential features and properties of typical manifestations of fake messages, allowing to identify such messages as false, fraudulent and containing unreliable information. The scientific novelty of the work consists in highlighting the characteristic properties of a special kind of simulacrum information, acting as a “conspicuous weapon”, directed at the attack recipient. In the result of the study, existing classifications of generic fake messages, revealing the mechanism of alternation of stages, transforming the constructed information into a deceptive one, the cognitive mechanism of semantic transformations is described, giving fake messages vector destructiveness. Further study of typical manifestations of fake information within the tunnel construct “targeted deviation from the truth” from the positions of integrative cognitive discourse is proposed.
