REALITY TV star Gemma Collins has sent out an urgent warning after being used as part of a 'diet pill' scheme.
The blonde beauty begged her fans to "stay safe" after discovering that her image was being used to target vulnerable individuals to sell them weight-loss pills.
Gemma confirmed that it had been flagged to her that a fake Facebook post was circulating which appeared to insinuate that she had shed the pounds using their pills.
In her stark warning to her millions of Instagram followers, Gemma said: "Hey everyone just checking in as it’s been brought to my attention and I am getting so many messages regarding someone on Facebook is advertising slimming pills with my pictures attached !"
Adding a sense of urgency to her message, she then opted to write in all capital letters as she added: "PLEASE DO NOT PURCHASE ‼️ I HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS !!
"STAY SAFE EVERYONE if you come across it report‼️‼️‼️‼️ hopefully Facebook will take down … love GC x"
