JOHANNESBURG - Scams are nothing new when it comes to using celeb names. The latest to nearly fall victim is actress Andrea Dondolo, who almost got scammed by someone claiming to be ‘Generations’ creator Mfundi Vundla.

Taking to her Instagram timeline in true storyteller fashion, the actress gave a detailed explanation of how she almost got scammed.

“Yesterday morning I got a call from someone saying he is Mfundi Vundla. Well, I picked up a few subtle typos in the SMS but told myself to stop being so OCD. I called back and he said he will call back in 10 minutes with an international number ... I did wonder why but then told myself, this is Mr Vundla — rich people can call you with whatever number, maybe by the time he calls he will be on his private jet.”

Though there were definite red flags, Andrea convinced herself this could be the real deal.

“I was excited, shem, I won’t lie. He said they are doing a production with Connie Ferguson and someone else — I can’t remember the name, I was too excited. Six months’ contract, I was like, ‘yes, yes, yes’, before he even finished.

“Haybo, you can’t blame me. I haven’t really worked in the past two years with the journey of embracing my sangoma calling — even my shoe size has gone up from size 9 to 10 from two years of walking barefoot. I was beyond elated.

“He asked how soon can I come to Jozi for a meeting. Without thinking, I said: ‘Tomorrow’.”
