Shannen Doherty shares video ahead of tumour surgery<\/h3>\n

Charmed star Shannen Doherty warned fans on Wednesday evening after spotting a scammer on Instagram impersonating her.<\/p>\n

The 52-year-old shared a screenshot of an Instagram message from an account called theshado_01, which is remarkably similar to her own username theshando.<\/p>\n

The fake account seemed to have a verification mark and over 100 followers and shared some appreciation for \u201cmy fans\u201d in the message, all of which could fool fans into believing it was really the Hollywood star talking to them.<\/p>\n

She declared in the caption: \u201cThis is not me. Just an obvious fake.\u201d<\/p>\n

Fans took a lighthearted approach to the warning in the comments as a few shared their own experiences getting messages \u201cfrom famous stars\u201d, as one joked: \u201cGreat. Now you\u2019re going to tell me the message I got from Taylor Swift yesterday because she needed to borrow some money is fake too.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Another declared: \u201cThere is only one Shannen Doherty!\u201d<\/p>\n

A third, hopefully, joked: \u201cSo all the ray bans I bought from you are not real?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cJared Leto messages me often,\u201d another hilariously added with a string of laughing emojis.<\/p>\n

Some questioned “what’s the point\u201d of scammers impersonating celebrities, but many fans have fallen victim to sending money, buying items or even falling in love with fake celebrities over Instagram.<\/p>\n
