Akothee’s sister warns Kenyans to stay alert as cons are using singer names to make easy cash 

Akothee once said that anyone conned using her name is a fool that has only himself/herself to blame.

Her younger sister Cebbie Nyasego was recently on social media to also warn Kenyans against trusting parody accounts that have been asking money from fans.

Cebbie shared a series of screenshots online urging fans to be very careful after a fan lost Ksh 10,000 to the scammers.

‘When you do a business transaction online, you should be very sure that the account you are dealing with is legitimate. For example when you order for supply of goods or you make a hotel booking or whichever other service, you should verify the account before you make a payment,” she said.

Companies

Akothee’s sister added that even companies affiliated to the singer have separate communications and fans shouldn’t be duped by them in case they reach them directly.

”Akothee Kenya is a well known personality and her official name is in the public domain. She definitely is not Esther Akoth Onyango. She is and has always been Esther Akoth Kokeyo. Most importantly, Akothee safaris in an independent entity with autonomous social media accounts in spite of the interest Akothee might have in it. They don’t share a social media platform. Nelson also has no connection to Akothee Safaris,” she added.
