Andy Cohen jokingly called Al Roker “ignorant” on Watch What Happens Live on Wednesday.

the reason? Hours earlier, the Bravo executive producer, 55, was questioned by Roker, 69, on the “Today” show about being scammed by hackers.

“Today's 'Jackhole' went to Al Roker for being a troublemaker this morning on the 'Today Show' and asking that question after my segment about being scammed by hackers,” Cohen said on “WWHL.”

During his interview on the Today show with Savannah Guthrie and Hoda Kotb, Cohen recounted how, after losing his bank card, he received an email that appeared to be from his bank's fraud alert system.

When he logged in, it He allowed the fraudster to access his bank account.

Cohen tried to log out, but the damage was done, and he said several “large wire transfers” were made from his account because he also inadvertently gave the hackers his phone number, allowing them to make wire transactions.

Rooker turned to Cohen and asked him if he had been scammed by “one of the housewives,” a reference to Cohen's association with the “Real Housewives” franchise, whose cast members are frequent guests on “What Happens Live.”

Cohen seemed confused by Rucker's question when Guthrie asked him, “Who's more likely?” To defraud him.

“You know, well, there's probably someone,” Cohen responded on the “Today” show.

“We'll talk about that later. I'll explain.”

Rucker then shrugged and arched his eyebrows — while Cohen told him he was a “smart guy.”

Cohen told the Today hosts that he filed a report with the NYPD's cybersecurity unit, but was told “when the money is transferred from your account, it's gone.”

“Don't trust anyone who invites you,” he said. “Don't get caught up in the urgency of the moment.”

Cohen wouldn't let it go, saying on “WWHL”: “Oh my God, Al, how could you?”

“This was basically the 'Today' show version of this,” he said, before showing a clip of the “Real Housewives of Miami” star's friend Marisol Patton asking the cast, “Who here do you trust the least?”
