Paige Spiranac details ‘scary’ impersonator ordeal in warning to fans

Paige Spiranac is sending a major warning to fans following a “scary” ordeal involving an impersonator.

In a post shared Monday on X , the longtime golf influencer — who has dealt with doppelgangers in the past — detailed the apparent incident in which an impersonator “took a screenshot of a video I did a couple years ago holding a head cover and photoshopped a sign in,” and posted the said image.

“Someone sent me this picture that some impersonator sent them. This is honestly so scary!” Spiranac began.

“… PSA do not talk to anyone claiming to be me! I’m not on any chat apps. I will only ever respond from my verified social media accounts and my passes account. Please report and block anyone claiming to be me!”

The image in question features a smiling Spiranac holding a note that reads, “I love you,” with hearts and kisses.

Spiranac, who boasts one million followers on X and four million on Instagram, previously outlined social media red flags in a guide back in 2022.

“Is the message coming from my verified account? If so, it is me,” Spiranac said at the time.

“Is the message coming from an account under my name that has zero followers, it is not me, that is a fake account.”

The influencer also stressed that if an account claiming to be her asks for money and or gift cards it’s an imposter.

“If this person insists on talking to you on WhatsApp or Google Hangouts, it’s not me,” Spiranac said. “If they show you a badly Photoshopped passport, driver’s license, or an old picture off of my Instagram to prove that it’s me, it’s not me.”

Spiranac’s star has continued to rise over the years.

Most recently, the former golfer was featured on one of the star-studded covers of the 2024 edition of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit, where she was profiled as a “legend.”

“I can’t put into words how special it is to be on the cover this year with so many inspiring women!” Spiranac exclaimed in May. “Honored is an understatement.”
