Eric Trump wrote "Unreal", above a 26-second video with the headline: 'Biden caught red-handed using a teleprompter'.
Telemundo, which broadcast the interview, said the claims were false and that it "has never allowed someone who is being interviewed on its news programmes to read answers from a teleprompter".
The network said it had set up a TV screen to allow viewers to pose questions to Mr Biden.
On screen, a woman had addressed a question to Mr Biden, after which the television apparently went blank. Mr Biden said: "I lost that lady" - not "I lost that line", as the tweet shared by Eric Trump had claimed.
It's not the first time allegations have been spread online suggesting Mr Biden used a teleprompter during interview.
In mid-September, President Trump promoted rumours that his opponent was reading from a teleprompter during an interview with TV host James Corden.
The rumours were false and Mr Corden has since publicly explained that the teleprompter - seen briefly in a reflection during the show - was for his own use.
The official Donald Trump Facebook page also promoted an ad making the same claim.

Re: Biden vs Trump: who is leading the 2020 US election polls
What I would like to know is, why a man of 77 is trying for such a demanding job in the first place?I mean, even if he did oust Trump, being realistic, how many years would he be be able to work under the pressure of being a President of a nation like that?
It's hardly a nice little retirement job to keep himself ticking over is it!
Personally, I think they should have a retiring age as with most other jobs, but perhaps even more so with such an important job as that.
It's like some judges you see too, some of them look about 90!
Do they have to pass any sort of test to test health and faculties after a certain age I wonder?
If not, they should do IMO.

But not so in this case Spitty, I'd bet on that.
You don't honestly think that elderly fella is the only man in the USA who would like the top job, do you? - Other than the orange one of course, and even he is 74.
