A GEORDIE Shore star and a former Miss Newcastle are among seven reality TV personalities who have admitted illegal promotion of foreign exchange trading on Instagram.
Scott Timlin, known as Scotty T, appeared at Southwark Crown Court in London yesterday. The 37-year-old admitted being one of seven influencers who broke the law when acting as so-called "finfluencers". The others are Lauren Goodger, 39, Yazmin Oukhellou, 31, Rebecca Gormley, 27, Biggs Chris, 33, Jamie Clayton, 34, and Eva Zapico, 27. Gormley is a former Miss Newcastle who has appeared on Love Island.
The court heard how they urged their "significant" number of Instagram followers to sign up to an account offering FX trading tips, despite having no qualifications or authorisation from the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA).
