Ryan Tubridy has threatened to take legal action after his face was used for scam ads selling cryptocurrency.
His warning comes after a top Garda told the Irish Mirror that a woman had lost €1,000,000 in an investment fraud scam. Ryan said: "Yet another person stopped me yesterday on the street. I'm on Instagram, I like being on Instagram. I was walking yesterday and someone told me that my face kept coming up in ads for cryptocurrency.
"Unfortunately. the difficulty is it's like whack-a-mole - as soon as they get rid of one, another pops up. The truth is - do you remember that 'I don't know what a tracker mortgage is'? I don't know what cryptocurrency is. It sounds like something from the Simpsons: Monorail, monorail, cryptocurrency, cryptocurrency. I have nothing to do with it.
Those ads are still going on YouTube today
