Emmerdale star Mark Charnock put a fake ‘logistics manager’ on blast after they pretended to be associated with the actor.
In his latest Instagram post, the Marlon Dingle star, 55, shared a screenshot of somebody using his picture with their bio suggesting he was close to Mark.
‘Sigh. Here we go again,’ he began.
‘If you happen to encounter this guy, please disregard. Whoever he is, he has absolutely nothing to do with me. I mean you’d think my “personal logistics manager” would spell my name right.’
Fans and fellow co-stars weighed in on the matter with Danny Miller (Aaron Dingle) replied: ‘So you don’t appreciate me as much as you said?’
Hollyoaks actress Gemma Atkinson added: ‘Ffs David 🤦🏼♀️😂.’

This comes after Mark revealed how he overcame anxiety.
‘For example, for me the idea of going on a roller coaster would worsen my anxiety around heights,’ he explained to Metro.co.uk.
‘But I think watching a horror film does perhaps exorcise your fears. I think psychoanalysts would likely say that watching a horror film in some ways is good as it exorcises so many physiological demons. But you are living out the fears in the safe environment of your sitting room.
‘Whereas on a rollercoaster – you are not in the safety of your sitting room but rattling around at a very high speed on a very high thing. I think it’s not going to stop you feeling frightened. So for me it is entirely dependent on the circumstances and what your actual fear is.’
‘I did the singing show at Christmas on ITV called Britain Get Singing and we were singing in a group. I’m not a singer and even though I wasn’t singing solo I was really really nervous,’ he admitted.
‘But do you know what? Going through it was an amazing process. I was working with six other members of the Emmerdale cast who were extremely supportive and kind. So I suppose it was not unlike Marlon going through his driving ordeal and finding strength in group support. The support I got from my cast mates was amazing and by the end of it I almost couldn’t wait to do it. Which was an amazing transformation that happened over 72 hours and purely down to the people I did it with.’
