Scarlett Moffatt issues warning about posting information online after stalker tries to kidnap her at train station

Former Gogglebox star Scarlett Moffatt has explained she's 'pleased' she was nearly kidnapped by a stalker last month - because it was a stark reminder to be be careful of what she shares online.

MirrorOnline reports the 31-year-old presenter was approached by a man as she arrived into London's King Cross station last month, who said: "Scarlett, I’ve been waiting for you. You’re coming home with me."

Now speaking about the ordeal, Scarlett described the kidnap attempt as "scary" but a wake-up call. "I'm, in a way, pleased that it happened because it reminded us of how important it is to be mindful of what you're posting on social media", she told MailOnline.
