Megan Fox 'gives out phone number' to millions to 'have some fun'

Millions of blokes thought it was their lucky day today - as Megan Fox announced that she was 'giving out her phone number'.

Sporting a pair of specs and a seductive leather ensemble reminiscent of her Transformers days, the actress offered her digits out to the masses of fans who fawn over her.

This shouldn't come as a surprise considering Fox recently blocked her ex-fiancé Machine Gun Kelly on Instagram, despite the pair sharing a child together.

In the clip which left lads scrambling to find a pen to jot her contact details down, she admitted it was 'probably a bad idea' - but said she was keen to 'have some fun'.

A host of social media users got all hot under the collar after seeing the short clip of Fox pop up on their timelines on Thursday (9 April).

In the flirty video, the Jennifer's Body star said: "Hi boys! This is probably a bad idea, but...I am gonna give my phone number.

"So call me, text me and let's have some fun! The number is 32349..."

Unfortunately, Fox never finished this sentence - as the mascot for the soap brand Dr Squatch then appeared on screen and seriously killed the mood.

The mother-of-four then reappeared and explains her number ends in 1 and 5, while adding: "I can't wait to hear from you."

Just imagine the amount of people sat trying to decipher the missing numbers as we speak, eh?

Hundreds of people admitted they fell for the savvy advertisement in the comment section, before their bubble ended up being seriously burst.

Take it a reminder that if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

One social media user commented on the post: "Bro...ngl I was ready to write down the number. Lmfao you got me."

Another wrote: "Dawg what’s the number!"

A third devastated fan then added: "Cruel joke (I’m buying Dr Squatch stock)."

Others were more preoccupied by the clever tactic Dr Squatch had deployed to entice customers, as one person commented: "Great way to grab attention."

A second said: "The marketing team needs a raise!!!!!"

While another laughed: "Some random similar phone numbers about to get flooded lol."

Fox is the latest celebrity to get involved with helping to promote Dr Squatch, with stars such as Sydney Sweeney previously appearing in adverts for the brand.

In another video shared to the brand's social media accounts, the 39-year-old is seen introducing herself as the 'head professor at Dr Squatch's foundation for odour excellence'.

While oozing sex appeal, Fox says: "Are you tired of being stinky? I can fix that. Early enrolment is open. See you in class!"

In the caption of the post, Dr Squatch encouraged those who 'didn't catch Fox's number' to head to the link in their bio.

From there, you end up on the brand's website, where you can 'sign up now for an exclusive perk from Professor Fox'.

Let us know how you get on, lads.
