According to Ozokwo, she was attacked by a group in France who claimed she took a huge sum of money from them, a business she knows nothing about.
She wrote:
“Why do people always try to discredit genuine businesses by creating fake accounts and duping people of their hard earned money?
“I cannot count how many messages I have received about giveaways I’m doing on Facebook or other social media platforms.
“A while ago, I was vehemently attacked by a group in France who swore I signed a contract and took a huge deposit to do business with them – it certainly wasn’t me.
“To be honest,it is quite disheartening. Any brand I support is genuine. If they stop being genuine, I leave sharp sharp.
“My apologies to all those who have been duped in my name. I have tried to close so many fake accounts -still trying.
“Please note that anything that sounds too good to be true is probably not true. Investigate before you invest. Check for real accounts and contacts.”
