'Account hacked': Carlton president deletes social media account ...

Carlton president Luke Sayers says he is the AFL’s latest social media hacking victim after a lewd image appeared on his personal account.

The since-deleted photo featured a naked man, including his penis but whose face cannot be seen, and was posted on Sayers’ X account on Wednesday night.

A female marketing executive, whose company has a partnership with the Blues, was tagged in the post.

Carlton’s boss quickly apologised for the post, claiming it was not him who shared the image.

“Sorry my account has been hacked – please ignore all posts,” he wrote on X.

Sayers, who has been the club’s president since August 2021, has now deactivated the account.

Blues members voted in February last year to extend Sayers’ term until the end of this season.

A Sayers Group spokesperson said on Thursday that Sayers’ X account was hacked and had been temporarily deactivated. Carlton were also contacted for comment.
