Nollywood actor, Bolanle Ninalowo, has cautioned the public to beware of online fraudsters impersonating him after a woman alleged she was defrauded of $5,000 in a romance scam.
The 45 year old actor shared on his Facebook page a screenshot of an email from the woman, who claimed she had been tricked by someone posing as him. She said she had gathered evidence, including emails, photos, and bank transactions, and was preparing to consult her attorney.
Ninalowo clarified that he had no connection to the scam and warned that several impostors are exploiting his identity to deceive unsuspecting people.
He urged fans to be vigilant when approached online by anyone claiming to be him, stressing that such interactions are fraudulent.
In his words:
“So after this, madam realizes she has been scammed, then she does her due diligence to find the REAL Bolanle Ninalowo’s IG & Email and ever since, na so so emails of threat & accusations!
I really hope you & many others who fall victim to these impersonators WAKE UP
