Becky Lynch is one of the biggest active WWE superstars. Her name on the match card can fill out an entire arena, even if she will just be cutting a promo on the show. ‘The Man’ has a huge following on her social media too, with over 3 million followers. She is always active on her social handles and sometimes replies to fans to engage with them. However, she recently dropped a warning to caution her supporters. 

Becky Lynch wrote, “It should go without saying, but I, or any other WWE superstar, would not ever message any fan looking for money or gift cards.

Please, if anyone ever messages you, pretending to be me, asking for money, or anything else, immediately block and report.

The amount of times I have heard of this happening is sickening.”
