Veteran Nollywood Actress, Patience Ozokwor, has narrated how she was wrongly accused of being a fraudster in France.
The actress said during a trip to the European country, someone accosted her, saying she was duped.
Taking to her Instagram page, she put out a disclaimer over fake accounts using her name and picture to defraud people.
She said, “Why do people always try to discredit genuine businesses by creating fake accounts and duping people of their hard-earned money?
“I cannot count how many messages I have received about giveaways I’m doing on Facebook or other social media platforms.
“A while ago, I was vehemently attacked by a group in France who swore I signed a contract and took a huge deposit to do business with them – it certainly wasn’t me.
“To be honest, it is quite disheartening. Any brand I support is genuine. If they stop being genuine, I leave sharp sharp.
“My apologies to all those who have been duped in my name. I have tried to close so many fake accounts -still trying. Please note that anything that sounds too good to be true is probably not true. Investigate before you invest. Check for real accounts and contacts.”
