Graham Norton

Facebook has already had to remove ads featuring RTE's Ryan Tubridy, Miriam O'Callaghan, Bryan Dobson, and Pat Kenny.

The adverts are always sponsored to reach the biggest audience possible, and underneath there is another caption that claims: “The microphone was still on when he said that live.” According to reports, the caption written on Tubridy and Norton’s scams says: “He didn’t know the camera was still recording . . . is this the end of his career?” The scammers are currently using a Facebook account that has garnered over 80,000 followers, and are using the BBC host’s image alongside a fake headline in order to coax people into following the link to a fake website.
