Jeremy Clarkson often has hoards of fans turning up to his Diddly Squat farm to take a peek at the vast land he owns, as well as being keen to try some of his homemade items within the Diddly Squat Farm Shop.
However, one thing that Clarkson does not offer is to meet and greet with his fans, but recently had to reiterate that fact and gave a stern warning to his fans on his social media account.
Posting an image of a large spider's web, the official Diddly Squat account captioned: "Avoid getting tangled in online scams! Unfortunately, we’ve recently heard about some individuals who have been tricked by scammers posing as our show cast and farm staff on the internet and social media.

"Please note: Diddly Squat does not offer farm tours or meet-and-greet sessions in exchange for money. Stay vigilant and don’t let scammers take advantage of you!"
Despite many of his fans already knowing this, some were still let down when the farmer had to reiterate the point, leaving one to comment: "Awww a meet and greet would be cool or an extra when you're filming at the shop."
"Maybe in the future farm tours will be offered when there is a period of rest for the main cast," another added before a third said: "Still sad that you guys don't do meet and greets on the farm! You'd get a great turnout."

Others were left consoling Clarkson and his team, as one noted: "So annoying! Just not something that you need, scammers need to get a life." (sic)
The warning comes just one week after Clarkson issued a fresh warning to visitors of the farm after receiving backlash from Chadlington residents for "purposeful" installing beehives.
He was accused of "strategically erecting 11 beehives behind a five-foot-high hedge at the start of a lane that leads to his Cotswolds farm," according to the Daily Mail.
Chadlington residents and local ramblers proceeded to moan about being stung by the swarm of bees when they walked near his farm.
Clarkson soon spotted the complaints from around town and mocked the backlash on X as he teased: "Hilariously, the Mail reports that ramblers are being stung by my bees. Diddums.
"I put some bee hives there because that’s the regen field and there are many things they like to pollinate. And now I’m in trouble because someone might get stung. Who’d be a farmer?"
He also went into further detail during one of his The Sun columns and jibed: "It seems that some ramblers are saying I’ve deliberately placed bee hives near a public footpath on my farm to stop people using it.
"Horse s**t. I have bee hives all over the farm – placed not to deter Liberal Democrats but because the plants growing nearby are suitable."

Clarkson remarked: "Could people be stung? Yup, probably, if they mess about. Do I care? Not especially. What they haven’t realised is that next to another footpath about a mile away, I have a sodding great bull called Endgame.
"And if you annoy him, he won’t sting you. He will turn you into pate. In short, the countryside is full of dangers. If you don’t like that, go to a waterpark instead."
