Nigerian musician Iyanya has released a
statement disclaiming reports of fraud by
someone claiming to be him on Facebook.
On Monday, August 26, 2013, Iyanya has made
the following statement available via Twitter: "I
have through the PR Company representing me
sent an official disclaimer on recent report of
fraud by someone on Facebook using my name".
"Please my real name on Facebook is Iyanya
Onoyom Mbuk please disregard any other
account that ask you to send money to them" he
said.
The musician also published the real name and
contact information of his manager and advised
people to ignore anyone posing as him to ask for
money.
Inyanya also mentioned some specific examples
of imposters' actions: "A lady called my manger
last week from Ireland saying she almost sent
50k dollars to a fake Iyanya (imposter) for a
show. Another guy from Uyo last night called
that he gave someone who claims to be Iyanya
money for a laptop and a phone and hasn't seen
the person".
Iyanya called on whoever was behind the illegal
acts to stop and warned that "We shall find
you".
