TV personality Martin Lewis is well known for his top tips for avoiding scams and making the most out of your money. However, his likeness was recently used by scammers on Twitter to try and trick people into buying crypto currency in the wake of the site's verification issues.
Mr Lewis shared that a fake account had been set up, with a blue verification mark, appearing to be the MoneySavingExpert.com founder but it was Twitter's response that alarmed the TV personality and journalist the most.
He emailed Twitter, flagging the problem but received a surprising auto response with no actual words – just the poo emoji.
