No. Unless you think that our deadly enemies of the time (USSR, Peoples Rep. of China and all their satellite nations) who would have loved to embarrass the US were all some how paid off to not mention their radar and radio telescopic readings. Common sense...our enemies were tracking it the same as we were...if there had been any funny business...they would have screamed bloody murder...instead, they re-doubled their own space and missile programs.

Well, according to a person who view the 1969's Apollo 11 live public broadcast, he was quite sure that it was real. Though, he said there are a lot of strange things happened when they are on the moon.
Apollo 12 was quite secretive and closed to the public.
Apollo 13... you know what happened.
Apollo 14 through Apollo 17, video replay only as I recall based on what he said, no live public broadcast.
Instead of saying 'Yes, all Apollo missions from 11 to 17 landed on the moon' or 'Yes, all Apollo missions from 11 to 17 didn't land on the moon', it might be better to say 'Yes, this particular Apollo mission landed on the moon' or 'No, that particular Apollo mission didn't land on the moon'.
All of the Apollo missions from 11 to 17 are certainly agreed by many parties to have been launched on Earth and landed on Earth.
Now on whether the human crew walked on the moon or not, that's a different matter.
Apollo 10 for example didn't land on the moon, but it did orbit the moon and done a practice on landing.
It should be noted that even an Apollo mission that indeed land on the moon in real life might have 'fake' moon walk photographies and videos for public consumption. So 'fake' moon walk photographies and videos didn't necessary mean a landing didn't happen.
As for the USSR did not scream bloody murder.
It was the Cold War, but the Apollo and the Soyus had a date and mated in the mid 70's?
Then there are also a lot of strange things that indicate that the USA and the USSR might be more toward allies rather than enemies.
Me think that the whole thing regarding the Cold War and the Space Race are a bunch of hoax.

After extensive scientific examination it has been determined that those people who ask if the 1969 landing was a hoax are really not there. This is why the hoax that the landing was a hoax continues, as no one is really asking these questions . In other words, you are not really there nor can you really prove that you exist.
There is some speculation, however, that you are really a computer program mimicking human verbal behavior.

No. If it were, then the Russians would never have let it slide. Anyway, how many people would have had to be in on it? It's literally impossible to have kept all of them quiet for all of this time.

Wit the research I've done on that subject...it is my opinion it was a hoax.

Yes, definitely. It was orchestrated by the Area 51 ET's as a distraction.
