Bukky Wright, the Nollywood actress, has cautioned her fans and the public regarding a surge of fake social media accounts operating under her name.
The veteran actress revealed that the impostors are actively attempting to defraud unsuspecting individuals.
In a message posted to her official Instagram account, Wright called on the public to be vigilant against these impersonators.
She clarified that she would never solicit money, ask for personal information, or request private conversations on alternative platforms.
The actress also disowned a recent job vacancy post shared from her account, describing it as “fraudulent”.
“Dear friends and supporters, Please be cautious of fake accounts pretending to be me. I never requested for money. Then, I will never request for personal information or private chat on any other account. This is my main page,” she wrote.
“If you receive any suspicious messages or offers, kindly report and block those accounts immediately.
“NB: A post was made on my account offering a job vacancy in UK and in turn we realize was fraudulent please disregard!!!
“Thank you all for your continued love and support. Your safety and trust mean so much to me.”
