Bobrisky Falls Victim to Online Romance Scam, Loses $990

Nigerian crossdresser and socialite, Okuneye Idris Olanrewaju, popularly known as Bobrisky, has revealed that he lost $990 in an online romance scam.

Taking to Instagram on Sunday, Bobrisky expressed his surprise and disappointment, admitting he never expected to fall victim to such a scam. According to him, the scammer had been in contact with him for several months, initially claiming to live in the U.S. before later saying they had relocated to Canada. During their communication, the scammer showed consistent interest in Bobrisky’s life, calling almost daily.

“I never thought I’d ever be a victim,” Bobrisky shared, describing how close their interactions became.

The situation took a turn when a client from the U.S. reached out to Bobrisky for a promotion and wanted to make a deposit via CashApp. Since Bobrisky didn’t use CashApp, he asked the scammer to receive the payment on his behalf. However, after the payment was sent, the scammer immediately blocked him.

To warn his followers, Bobrisky posted screenshots of their conversations and a photo of the alleged scammer, advising his fans to be cautious and avoid similar online frauds.
