Mum-of-22 Sue Radford desperately urges fans to ignore family Instagram post after son Daniel is targeted by hackers
SUE Radford has urged fans to ignore an Instagram post apparently from her son Daniel's account, after he was targeted by hackers.
The mum-of-22 has been quiet on her social media pages over the summer holidays, returning only occasionally to share family updates.
And on Friday, she pleaded with her followers to take no notice of a post that came up on her 24-year-old's Instagram page.
The post featured a picture of a stunning house, and the words: "Congratulations to me. My very first house here in the UK.
"All thanks to bitcoin mining and my mentor @julia__fx_mentor thank you for everything I’m really grateful.
"Y’all go follow my bitcoin coach @julia__fx_mentor."

A post on the page's Instagram Stories showed the inside of an unknown house, alongside the caption: "This cost me a lot but it was all worth it. All thanks to Bitcoin mining."
However, sharing a screenshot of the hackers' post on the family Instagram page, Sue wrote: "This is not Daniel - his account got hacked and he can't get it back.
"Please don't fall for the scam."
Daniel - Sue and husband Noel's fifth child - added in another Instagram story that he's been forced to "turn off comments" on the posts mentioning Bitcoin because "a lot of people are asking me for money".

Prior to the posts about the house and car hackers put on the page, Daniel's last entry came seven weeks ago, when he shared pictures and videos of himself apparently on a boys' holiday.
Daniel used to work for his parents' pie company, according to their website.
"Daniel helps Sue and I with anything from taking orders, preparing pies ready for delivery to making sure everywhere is spotless after a long day of pie-making," Noel wrote on the site.
However, back in 2021, Daniel's admission into the Royal Air Force was documented on the family's TV show 22 Kids and Counting.
