ABI Webster’s ordeal is far from over as she receives abuse from trolls following the viral deep fake videos.

Corrie viewers know that that Abi (Sally Carman) was left horrified when her friend Tyrone Dobbs (Alan Halsall) revealed he’d been sent a revealing email featuring her in a sex video.

The former drug addict feared her past was haunting her having admitted to blackouts before.

Unbeknownst to Abi, however, the sex tape is actually a nasty deepfake, with someone out to get her.

She is determined to find the culprit, and has got the police involved.

But, Abi was left even more distraught after discovering the video has been shared on other websites.

Upcoming scenes due to air next week sees a tearful Abi confide in Kevin that her online troll has reposted one of the deep fake videos.

Craig calls at the garage and admits to Abi and Kevin that they’re no nearer to knowing who posted the fake videos and she might be best to hire a lawyer.

After two lads call at the garage and make lewd remarks, Abi is in despair about the fact that someone is trying to ruin her life.

Nina suggests they try the online management company Dev contacted for Asha.

Asha’s intimate video to Corey Brent was leaked onto a group chat sent by Kelly, leaving Asha embarrassed and devastated.

Asha’s leaked topless video caused a furious Dev to take drastic action and went to the police to help get the video removed. Can Dev help Abi with her video?

Later in the week, when the twins adopted mother cancels their visit to see Abi, she realises she needs to try and get the videos taken down.

When Kevin and Abi find out that the online management company will charge £5k per month to remove the videos, they despair, knowing it’s unaffordable. What will Abi do next?

Meanwhile, Tyrone tears a strip off Cassie for trying to cause friction between Kevin and Abi.

He suggests that if she wants her job back, she’d better apologise.

Will she do the right thing?

Some fans aren’t as convinced that the culprit for the videos is none other than Cassie.

Introduced as Tyrone’s believed-to-be-dead biological mother, Cassie has made her interest in Kevin previously known.

Taking to X (formerly Twitter), one viewer speculated: “I bet it was Cassie who made the sex tape of Abi. That’s pure evil.”

Another commented: “Bet Cassie has made the deep fake,” while a third agreed: “I knew it Cassie is all over this Abi tape thing.

“She really is the worst. I hope this is the beginning of the end for her. She’s pointless.”

A fourth suggested: “I reckon Cassie is behind the Abi tapes, she’s be trying to set her up since she arrived.”
