EMILY PRESCOTT: Ex-footballer Alex Scott and radio host Zoe Ball are up in arms about scammers using their names
What do sports expert Alex Scott and radio host Zoe Ball have in common? Well, not only are they both BBC presenters, but they’re also up in arms against scammers using their names.
Last week, former footballer Alex posted a warning about a fake Instagram account created in her name, telling fans it wasn’t her.
Meanwhile, Zoe appeared on BBC One’s Morning Live to warn fans about a fraudster who linked her to a fake investment scheme.
‘Obviously I had nothing to do with this. It’s a complete scam,” says Zoe.

Charlotte, 23, told me she’s unfazed by drunken dating culture, saying she dreads the “inevitable ‘let’s go for a drink’ conversation.” Let’s hope she has better luck with a mocktail in hand!
