One Kelvin Ogodogu has been arrested for impersonating Ghanaian actor, Majid Michel and defrauding two white women of $5,000, $30,000 respectively.
According to reports, the impostor was arrested while trying to dupe unsuspecting fans and solicit for money for the burial of the late actor’s mum.
He was arrested after defrauding a US-based lady of some dollars, supposedly meant to help in the preparations of the actor’s mum’s funeral.
Majid revealed that he got wind of the situation when he met with the white lady, Ikay, at an event in the United States.
Ikay was said to have approached him and told him about their chats on social media and also hinted on the monies she’s been sending him.
According to Majid, the lady said that he (Majid) informed her of his mother’s death and requested for an amount of $5,000, an amount she was willing to send.
Right there, he found that another lady in Canada was scammed out of a staggering amount close to $30,000.
On carrying their investigations, the Ghanaian police nabbed the impostor while he was trying to receive the money through Western Union. The suspect will be arraigned in court soon.
