Peter Ash, known for his role as Paul Foreman on the popular soap opera Coronation Street, recently took to social media to warn fans about fake accounts impersonating him. These scams have become increasingly common, prompting his bosses at the show to issue a similar warning.
In a post on his official Instagram account, Peter clarified that he does not have a Facebook account and only uses his Instagram and official X account. He also urged fans to be cautious and not be fooled by these fake accounts. This is not the first time that soap operas have had to address these scams, as both Coronation Street and Emmerdale released a joint statement earlier this month to bring awareness to the issue.
The statement emphasized that no cast member will ever ask for money in exchange for messages, meetings, or any type of personal interaction on social media. These imposters often use deep-fake technology to create realistic footage and messages, making it difficult for fans to distinguish between a real account and a fake one. The shows urged everyone to remain vigilant and report any concerns to the respective platform.
The safest way to meet and interact with the real cast members is through official events organized by ITV Star Tours. This is especially important for fans who may be eager to connect with their favorite actors and may fall prey to these scams.
Peter Ash bid farewell to Coronation Street last year as his character was written off in a heart-wrenching storyline about motor neuron disease. However, he recently reunited with his on-screen husband, Daniel Brocklebank, who plays Billy Mayhew. He shared a photo on Instagram with the caption "Reunited! In that there London!" Fans were quick to express their excitement and nostalgia for seeing the two actors together again.
