Days of Our Lives Star Stephen Nichols Involved In Online Scam

We’ve got bad news for Days of Our Lives Stephen Nichols fans this week. According to new reports, the actor is the victim of a major online scam! New reports indicate that someone out there is impersonating them on social media and apparently, Stephen is none too pleased about it!

The Days of Our Lives actor warned his Instagram followers that someone has made a fake account under his name. Stephen wrote, “Heads up everyone! There is someone impersonating me on IG. They use the account,” along with, “This individual is sending messages to some of you. I have reported this to Instagram.”

Apparently, a lot of Stephen’s fans are used to this sort of thing. Many have commented with, “I’ve had weirdos contact me claiming to be a particular celebrity. Wanting money usually. I just tell them to “buzz off!” along with, “The horrible side of social media! Loving your real posts.”

Of course, this isn’t the first time that a daytime television star has accused someone of making a false social media account under his or her name. In fact, this happens almost all the time. Many stars from General Hospital, The Bold and the Beautiful and The Young and the Restless report this all the time. Unless you see a verified blue check mark next to their name, then chances are that that social media account is not the right now. It’s no fun following your favorite stars on social media without knowing whether their accounts are authentic or not!
