“Hey guys, there’s been a fake account on Tinder trying to impersonate me.
“Just to let you know the club and the police are involved in this matter.
“If you have been contacted by this fake account, please ignore and report.”

Details of the impersonation on the app

The imposter has shared the photos of Jermain on the dating app and also claimed that he or she is a former England International. But it is not known how Jermain came to know about this account and the message from his imposter on the dating app Tinder.

Whether Jermain himself found it or was he made aware of it by his friends is not clear. Nonetheless, his action was prompt and right and would help the police catch the culprit.
