A woman targeted by cruel scammers has spoken out on This Morning about her catfish ordeal. Helen, who only went by her first name on the ITV morning show, told how she was lured into an online relationship, thinking it was with her pop hero George Ezra.
Helen, 51, spent months thinking she was communicating with the 29-year-old Brit Award-winning singer, whose hits include Budapest, Shotgun and Green Green Grass. She is now warning others by recalling her heartbreaking story of betrayal.
Mother-of-three Helen, who had been divorced for eight years, was a big fan of George's music and typed a message on the Facebook page for the star to thank him. "I heard him playing in a shop and I literally burst out 'yay it's George,'" she explained to hosts Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield.
