Naga Munchetty: Scammers spread fake nude pictures of me on ...

The fake article about me suggested I had been detained by the government following a "controversial" interview on ITV's This Morning, where I allegedly gave details about a "lucrative loophole" to make money.

It was made to look like a BBC News article, complete with logo and branding, and it contained links to a scam cyber trading website, which has now been taken down after my production team reported it to the BBC legal team.

I'm not the first high-profile face to be used by scammers to trick people out of their hard-earned money.

My fellow 5 Live presenter and Money Saving Expert, Martin Lewis, has previously spoken out about his face being used to front cryptocurrency scams.

Wildlife TV presenter Chris Packham told me he first saw fake articles about himself appearing on social media two years ago.

He recently opened an account with Bluesky and within hours saw fake accounts re-posting these scams from other platforms.

Packham said the posts on Bluesky were a bit more sophisticated in that scammers set fake accounts, found people within his professional circle and contacted them asking for donations towards a non-existent "conservation fund".

"What they're doing here is taking the authority, the integrity, the credibility of the BBC and, not in an immodest way, ourselves," he said.

"It's extraordinarily offensive and worrying, I loathe the idea vulnerable people could potentially be exploited [by my image]."
