NOLLYWOOD ACTRESS EBUBE NWAGBO IN INTERNET SCAM!


NOLLYWOOD ACTRESS EBUBE NWAGBO IN INTERNET SCAM!
Star actress, Ebube Nwagbo is one movie star who`s currently troubled and the reason isn’t farfetched. The pretty Nollywood actress, we gathered recently fell victim of a hacker, a development that has become rampant of recent. It’s no longer news that impostors try to take advantage of popular stars to either defraud unsuspecting fans or for several other reasons. It was gathered that such culprits operate by opening a fresh account with the actor or actress` identification, making people believe the account is truly owned by such artiste and then later start asking for aids and money by setting up an NGO in the same account claiming to be the artiste and then soliciting for funds. Not a few stars have fallen victims of such ill act and many have also had to close down their facebook accounts as a result of this. However, these fraudsters have taken their craft to the use of Blackberry and their modus operandi is quite simple. They open a Blackberry ID with their target`s name or nickname and picture and start adding unsuspecting fans claiming to be the real artiste. A lot of stars, we further gathered have also fallen prey to this latest scam but the worst hit at the moment is Ebube Nwagbo.
It was gathered that a certain lady that uses a Blackberry I.D, as Posh Ebube which is similar to the actress` BB ID has been going around town adding people and claiming to be the real Ebube. And what makes matter worse is that the impostor is also taking advantage of the fact that the actress owns an expensive hair line to dupe people of money promising to deliver hair to them after they have paid into a certain account number she gives them, only for the buyers not to get any delivery despite having paid.
According to one of the actress’ friends, her attention was called to it when people started accosting her at social gatherings to either ask her why she deleted them or why she failed to deliver the goods as promised. At first she simply waived it off as mere coincidence until a particular ugly situation that caused her so much embarrassment led her into investigating the matter.
Quoting the friend, “At first a friend told her about it that she heard there is some girl who fakes to be Ebube and tells people she sells hair and clothes, there was also a case of somebody accusing her of telling her to pay money into an account to come to Abuja for some party”. The actress we learnt said she met the fake Ebube in a group on bbm and also reported the case to some of her colleagues, “ she simply told them it’s not her until she later met some girl again at an event who came up to her and was really furious about why Ebube asked her to pay money and didn’t bother about delivering the hair and worst still went ahead to delete her from her BB contact”. The sexy role interpreter, we further gathered was really shocked because she had never had such transaction nor met the girl before. She further gave out the fraudster’s pin as 22d27a3c.That makes the sultry actress the second victim of the BB scam, following another actress Rukky Sanda, who cried foul few months back over same issue.
