What is all the stuff about Emma Willis on instagram?

There’s various posts about Emma Willis being arrested! Ruining her career! Has anyone else seen it? She’s Confessed about something! I’ve looked in the papers and googled it! Has something happened with her or has she been hacked? Probably! But I like her so I’m hoping that it’s all made up. Anyone else seen it?

Ha ha it’s usually Gordon Ramsey or Chris Packham on my ones, they are quite obviously fake, they just want you to click on them.

I definitely did notice something doing the rounds but I don't know what it is. If it was one of those pop up thingys I never open them.

Are you confusing her with Wile E. Coyote?

I've never heard of her. Just saying.

Makes 2 of us.

Scam fake click bait, I had loads for a few days.

EmpressSisi · 24/10/2023 17:03

I keep getting them for Emma Willis & Gordon Ramsey on insta. It’s driving me crazy! I keep reporting them as spam/scam but the same accounts keep posting it. It’s clearly real people being arrested with the celebrities’ head superimposed on them.

Ladybird69 · 24/10/2023 17:15

Ohh @Hobnobswantshernameback such a lovely poster you are.
Thanks everybody else, it was a knee jerk reaction to post this on here! In hindsight it obviously was a scam but to be fair it is my first experience of one!

Seriously, do people not realise these links are made up clickbait?

Perhaps I can interest you in $4m from a Nigerian prince and all you need to do is send me a processing fee of £500.

Sorry posted to wrong thread so deleted

I managed to resist the one about the dog that wasn't a dog, clinging onto a wall in some kind of pool.

No-one cares if some randomer on the internet doesn't know someone.

Lusf · 25/10/2023 15:30

I have seen it too. So it’s you that needs to ‘lye down’

Beezknees · 25/10/2023 15:36

It's so weird to click on a thread about someone you've never heard of solely to announce to everyone that you've never heard of them. Very self important behaviour.

I've seen that one. Half human half dog. You'll spend half an hour clicking through adverts to be told it's a trick of the light.

Exactly.

If you don’t know who someone is, try Google !

I like the “you won’t believe what this 90’s celeb looks like!” Ones. Usually not much different with a few plastic surgery bloops. But it’s nice to see them again after all that time

ThinkAboutItTomorrow · 25/10/2023 18:58

How does the scam work? Or is it just ad revenue they're after i.e. click bait?

You would have thought the social media owners could find a way not to give ad revenue to this sort of rubbish. When it lies about people it must be stressful.

The media owners should be made to at least give up any ad money for those.

YouAreBeingUnbearable · 26/10/2023 11:07

That Gordon Ramsey one is absolutely hilarious! How anyone fell for that one is beyond me but I am now rather hoping they start popping up on my instagram too.

TheWeeDonkeyFella · 26/10/2023 12:17

I know they're probably protected from a lot of sm nonsense but it must be weird to see yourself featured in one of these click bait things. Martin Lewis took action a while back (against FB if I recall) as it was using his name/face to promote financial scams and vulnerable people could be taken in because of trusting him but I guess it's harder to stop the "so-and-so's real life partner will shock you" nonsense articles.

Missmissiemoo · 26/10/2023 13:36

yes I’ve just come across it off Facebook on story’s it’s a scam naught Facebook book allow it looks like a sponsored add

Surreyclaire · 26/10/2023 13:40

Never ever even heard of her
