The Hairy Bikers team has issued another warning over a vile scam following the death of Dave Myers.
Earlier this month, just 10 days after the death of Dave, a cruel scam artist handed yet more heartache to his wife Liliana and best friend Si King. A warning was issued to fans on The Hairy Bikers’ Facebook page at the time.
Now, this week, they’ve been forced to issue another warning to fans as the scams continued. It detailed a cruel scam engineered to make money from Dave Myers’ death.
The Hairy Bikers fans warned over Dave Myers scam
Dave died on February 28, with his best pal Si announcing the heartbreaking news on their joint official Instagram page.
Dave’s wife Lili had previously shared that, other than that account, the duo weren’t very active on social media. And it seems one fraudster tried to take advantage of that to profit from Dave’s death.
Sharing a warning on Facebook this week, The Hairy Bikers team told fans to be aware of scams. A message read: “Everyone at the Hairy Bikers Management Team is deeply saddened with the passing of Dave Myers. He will be deeply missed by all of us. However, we now urgently need your help!”
A poster then followed, telling fans how to avoid the scam. The team wrote: “Many of you have been emailing us pointing out that fake profiles are appearing on Facebook and Instagram, the latest one is of Si King.
“Our Team has been desperately trying to get Meta to remove these fake profiles for the past 2 weeks without success. Below is a screenshot of a fake page.”
