Former professional golfer and golf influencer Paige Spiranac has opened up about a 'scary' situation she has been dealing with, in a Q&A session on her Instagram Stories. The 31-year-old golfer was asked by a fan about the hardest part of dealing with fame and being in the public eye.
Spiranac said that she has found it difficult to deal with situations where someone has impersonated her or made a fake account in her name. She said:
"The hardest part lately actually has been dealing with all the impersonators and the fake accounts. It has spun into a couple very scary situations and there's really not much I can do besides reporting and blocking and coming here and warning people to not fall for those scans, but still people do."
Spiranac enjoys a large fan following on social media. She has 4 million followers on Instagram, 1 million followers on X (formerly Twitter), and 422k subscribers on YouTube. She further appealed to her fans and said:
"So here I am saying please don't talk to anyone claiming to be me, my management team, or talking on any other accounts that aren't my verified personal accounts or my passes account."
Spiranac said that she doesn't use WhatsApp or Google Hangouts; the only place she'd respond to you were on her personal verified accounts and Passes accounts. She further asked her fans to report and block the fake accounts.
Paige Spiranac said she adds content on Passes site multiple times a day
Paige Spiranac, who is among the top golf influencers, recently joined a new subscription site, Passes. She closed OnlyPaige, her subscription-based content platform which she started last year. OnlyPaige was used by her to share exclusive golf content including tutorials and personal updates.
Last week, Spiranac announced that she had moved to Passes. She said on her Instagram Stories:
"OnlyPaige is done. That would be no longer. This is the new site; everything will now be on Passes. This is a new subscription site; it's better than ever. So, you will not longer be able to go there. There would be no other exclusive subscription sites. This is the only one I will have."
In the recent Q&A session, Spiranac was asked how often new content by her was being added on Passes. She said on her Instagram Stories:
"Multiple times a day you are getting something from me—from like a voice note, pictures, videos, you can request content, special content... really everything. It's been so much fun. People are absolutely loving it. And the best part, it's all never-before-seen content. So check it out."
Paige Spiranac's page on Passes offers multiple types of subscriptions. The basic subscription is the Golf Only which offers golf content only and costs $5. As per her Passes profile, it will include golf pictures, course vlogs, instructions, and more. Another subscription is Par Tier which costs $10 and promises exclusive content from her wall.
There are two premium subscriptions—Birdie Tier and Eagle Tier—priced at $25 and $100, respectively. The Birdie tier offers access to all the wall content and live streams, while the Eagle tier will earn the subscriber access to all of the Birdie tier content, plus 5 free DMs and DM freebies.
