Akshay Kumar blasts a fan online
Akshay Kumar tweeted, "Heard some upsetting news... some members of my "FAN CLUB" have been misleading some fans and duping them of money with false promises of landing an assistant directors job on my films."
While it has become convenient for fans to get in touch with their favourite celebrities through social media, these virtual platforms have given reason to worry.
Apparently, someone claiming to be a fan has been duping people on ’s fan club account, promising them a job in the actor’s production house.
Most celebrities take legal action to get the fraudsters penalised, but when Akshay got to know about this, he preferred reaching out to his fans directly.
He tweeted, "Heard some upsetting news... some members of my "FAN CLUB" have been misleading some fans and duping them of money with false promises of landing an assistant directors job on my films (sic)."
The actor also added, "If you are my fan, you know my story... there is no shortcut to success. Please don’t be naive and don’t give away your hard earned money to crooks (sic)."
Targeting the conmen, he wrote, "To those involved in this scam, may you get what you deserve (sic)."
