Carlton footy club president Luke Sayers snared in sext scandal after sordid snap was sent to blonde executive linked to club – as he insists he was ‘hacked’
Carlton football president Luke Sayers has accused hackers of infiltrating his social media accounts and sending a graphic sexual image to a female executive at one of the club’s key sponsors.
The former PWC chief executive’s X account posted an image of a mystery man’s penis while they were reclining on a bed, and tagged the account a top management figure with a company linked to Carlton at 5.41pm on Wednesday.
The post was directed at the female executive’s social media account, although the mother-of-two does not appear to have used X since 2017 and does not follow Mr Sayers on the platform.
Sources close to the executive told Daily Mail Australia she was distraught by the incident and ‘completely shaken up’.
The message remained online for 12 minutes before Mr Sayers noticed and hastily deleted the image before apologised to his followers, saying he had been targeted by cyber criminals.
‘Sorry, my account has been hacked – please ignore all posts,’ the football club president wrote.
The married father-of-four’s account, which has more than 7300 followers, was then deleted but the post had already been reposted and screengrabbed by other X users.

The ‘hack’ attack comes little more than a month after Mr Sayers and his wife Cate sold their mansion in Melbourne’s east for more than $16.5m

Mr Sayers, who is currently on a family skiing trip in Italy, where he has a second home in Lake Como, told Melbourne’s Herald Sun newspaper he was ‘outraged’ by the attack.
‘This is outrageous. I’m investigating and will leave no stone unturned finding out who did this to me and my family,’ he said.
The hack attack comes little more than a month after the prominent executive figure and his Cate sold their mansion in Melbourne’s east for more than $16.5m.
The Sayers snapped up the seven-bedroom home in Hawthorn East almost two decades ago for $4.84m.
Mr Sayers ran the Australian division of international consultancy firm PwC’s for eight years but left in 2020 to start the investment and advisory business Sayers Group after he was embroiled in the tax scandal that engulfed the global accountancy giant.
He has been the president of the Carlton Football Club since 2021.
Daily Mail Australia has approached both Mr Sayers and the female executive for comment.
