In April 2024, I was contacted via Instagram from someone claiming to be a celebrity actor Michael B. Jordan. I had been liking his posts on his blue checked account. I had also reached out to his real account via direct message. The imposter manage to persuade me to go off instagram to an app called Telegram Chat. They used the username privatefanchat 10. The username they contacted me initially via instagram was mbj_private_fan chat. It was my first time being on instagram and unaware of these scams. On telegram chat they trying to romance me and trying to persuade me to try investing in crypto and bitcoin which i dont have much knowledge of. They manage to persuade me to buy two Razor Gold gift cards and two bitcoin transfers. I got suspicious and stopped communication. They used two emails: [email protected], and [email protected]. They also produced a image of a fake VIP card of the actor with his name and photo. Currently they continue to send me fake follow requests on inatagram pretending to be different celebrities i follow or comment on their posts. Theyre trolling me online still. I managed to recignuze key words they use like lucky fans, private fans, chat, etc. I have reported, blocked, deleted all i can. Instagram doesnt do anything to stop these criminals. In my opinion, instagram allows these scammers to exist on their platform.
