Lindsay Lohan has been tricked by a man pretending to be Sex and the City star Jason Lewis.

The singer was fooled when the impostor left her a voicemail message, beginning a week of text messages and phone calls between the pair. It was only after she tried to invite her new friend to a New York nightclub that Lindsay realised she had been duped.

"It's mean," Lewis told the New York Daily News. "The guy was trying to set her up. I think he's a creep."

Jason is currently dating Sin City actress Rosario Dawson.
