Segun Arinze: I’m Not A Beggar
Star actor, Segun Arinze, has raised an alarm over a Facebook impostor defrauding his unsuspecting friends and other members of the public on the social media network.
The former president of the Actors’ Guild of Nigeria, AGN, has therefore sent a disclaimer informing members of the public on the activity of the impostor, who has been begging his friends for financial assistance.
Segun said he has been off Facebook for over two years now, and that the impostor frequently uploads “pictures of me and my family, which he obviously gets either from online magazines or blogs and then pretends to be me.
“Please DO NOT fall prey to his antics.”
Segun Arinze hinted that the impostor “will beg for money or ask for some favours. You also will find many typo errors, incoherent and inconsistencies as you chat with him.
“So, please friends, this, once again, is a disclaimer! I’m not on Facebook again. Thank you, God bless and good luck to anyone who does any form of transaction or chats with him,” Segun Arinze said.
