He posted this for fans: “Little PSA because social media can be an awful place sometimes. I only have one Instagram account, this one, and no chat accounts or anything like that….that’s the way it’ll always be. Be careful guys and gals, lots of weirdos out there…and @instagram is completely inept or doesn’t care (likely the latter) when it comes to safeguarding the public from situations like this, or helping me have them removed once i find out.”
Ryan did fans a solid by letting them know how to tell if a celeb account is the real deal or not: On Instagram look for a blue check next to the name of the celebrity to verify that it is legit.
