The team behind the Hairy Bikers has been forced to issue another statement to their fans after more scams came to their attention.
Earlier this month, just one week after chef Dave Myers died, the team had to warn Instagram followers that a fake Si King page had been created asking for donations.
These pages pretended to be Myers' co-star King and asked grieving fans for monetary donations that would go to his family.
Now, in the same week the final ever Hairy Bikers: Go West episode aired on the BBC, the team has taken action again.
This time on Facebook, Hairy Bikers fans have been warned to steer clear of unverified King pages on the platform as it tries to lure fans into a cryptocurrency scam.
The Hairy Bikers Facebook page shared a lengthy warning on the matter in which it read: "Many of you have been emailing us pointing out that fake profiles are appearing on Facebook and Instagram, the latest one is of Si King.

"Our Team has been desperately trying to get Meta, the owners of Facebook and Instagram, to remove these fake profiles for the past 2 weeks without success."
The warning then attached a screenshot of the aforementioned fake King page.
"You will notice that it doesn't have a 'Blue Tick' next to the name 'Si King'," the warning continued.
"There are instances where a 'post' has a link to a Bitcoin scam asking for donations to a cancer charity in the name of Dave Myers. Rest assured, this is not genuine in any shape or form."
Detailing their need for help, the post continued: "How you can help us, firstly, if you have fallen for the fake profile and currently 1,000 have, please unfollow the profile page as your information can be sold on. Secondly, please report the fake profile to Facebook."
The statement then included instructions on how to do this before the Hairy Bikers team took aim at Facebook itself.
They hit out: "To add to the confusion, the people behind the scam are copying posts that we are genuinely uploading to our own page. If you all join in and report the fake, Facebook may wake up when they see some 600,000+ reports in their inbox. #MarkZuckerberg take note!
"We gratefully appreciate your help and kindness. Help us drop this. It's not in the name of the Hairy Bikers. Shocking Meta's lack of action."

The warning on Facebook comes just days after the team had to take to Instagram, another of Meta's platforms, to warn fans about other scammers.
In an Instagram post on March 8, the team penned: "Hello everyone, It’s come to our attention that someone has set up a fake ‘Si King’ profile asking for donations for Dave’s family.
"This is a scam so please avoid clicking on anything or giving out any personal information. Please block and report the page.
"We are aware of the situation and are working to get it resolved. HB Team."
