One Kelvin Ogodogu has been arrested for impersonating Ghanaian actor, Majid Michel.
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.
Speaking to journalists, 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 the social media and also hinted on the monies
she’s been sending to him.
According to Majid, the lady even 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 out that another lady in Canada was scammed out of a staggering amount close to $30,000.
Through
their investigations, the Ghanaian police nabbed the impostor while he
was trying to receive the money through Western Union.
Narrating
his side of the story at the Police Station, Kelvin claimed that the
name Majid Michel is his nickname, and that when he was in Nigeria, he
used to love the actor and his movies, to the extent that his friends
started calling him Majid.
