Yul Edochie isn’t the only celebrity whose business is being used to scam fans.
Award-winning singer, Peter Okoye a.k.a Mr. P, who runs a lottery program had cried out over how online swindlers were using his name to scam people on social media.
Responding to a fan who said he wanted N500,000 before the end of the year, Mr. P of PSquare noted how such online begging is the reason why internet fraud is on the rise.
Fed up with the alarming increase in online scams, Psquare had lashed out at fraud victims, questioning if fraudsters used charms while carrying out their activities as he can’t seem to understand how they can convince victims to pay for giveaways.
This came after a victim had dragged the singer to refund him his money and had rained curses on him.
Responding to him, Peter noted how a good name is better than a bad name as he pointed out how many of the victims are greedy because give always are meant to be free.
