The Internet hasn't been very nice to Selena Gomez lately.

As if death threats against the starlet because of her relationship with Justin Bieber weren't bad enough (not to mention a foul-mouthed hacker tapping into her Twitter and Facebook accounts), the squeaky-clean Disney darling is now having to deal with something downright dirty—and totally untrue, too.

It seems somebody with a not-so-original way with Photoshop posted a pic of a supposedly topless Selena on the World Wide Web.

But her peeps are wasting no time getting the word out that the nudie shot is indeed a fake. 

"The alleged photo of Selena Gomez is absolutely not her," a rep for the Wizards of Waverly Place actress tells E! News. "Selena's family is pursuing all available remedies to deal with the offender."

Here's hoping the girl has a better rest of the year. Actually, make that rest of the month!
