'Unfortunately I have discovered someone posing as me on 3 different profiles on Google + and in the Google search engine,' she wrote on Friday. 

'I have a troll who has set up fake Twitter accounts to harass and who is posting defamatory comments posing as me.

'I know who the person is behind the pages and the police are investigating.'

The popular personality apologised for any hateful comments her followers had received, and gave an extra apology to the Cancer Council in Victoria, who assumably have been targeted. 

The person in question appears to be trying to destroy her relationship with television personality and producer Eddie McGuire, who Gina is working with on a pilot for a new TV show.

'They are trying to portray me as a smoker, that I hate Eddie McGuire, that I am rude and disrespectful to my fans - all things that I am not.'
