Dan Wootton denies High Court claim that he catfished 'former colleague'

Broadcaster Dan Wootton denies catfishing allegations made by a former colleague in a High Court claim, involving explicit photos and videos sent under false pretenses. The claimant alleges Wootton impersonated a woman named Maria Joseph to solicit the explicit content in 2009.

The case highlights a dispute over online identities and potential consequences for all involved.
