It went on to state that the person had won the chance to speak to Woods on a private chat.

But this was in fact a hoax as Woods let her followers know it was nothing to do with her.

Alongside the screenshot, she said: “Had a lot of messages about this account.

“It’s nothing to do with me, so please block & report if they message you.”

She then added: “I also don’t have any private Instagram accounts in my name & I don’t have an assistant, so again please block & report.

“There are some awful people about! Be careful.”

Woods was most recently seen presenting Tyson Fury’s clash with Francis Ngannou in Saudi Arabia on Saturday.

During TNT Sports‘ build-up of the fight, Woods revealed she has always been a fan of Fury.

The presenter said: “For the record I’ve always loved Tyson Fury.

“In case you’re watching Tyson.”

Fury went on to claim a controversial split-decision victory over Ngannou following a dismal performance.
