Abhishek Kumar, a popular contestant on Khatron Ke Khiladi 14, has recently alerted his fans about a troubling scam involving his name. The actor took to his social media to warn everyone about a person named Shivam Saini, who has been pretending to be him. Kumar shared his distress over this situation, as Saini has been contacting people in his circle, asking for money while posing as the actor.
In a video posted on his Instagram story, Abhishek explained the scam in detail. He appeared visibly upset as he described how this person, Shivam Saini, seems to have access to personal details about his life—like his daily activities, locations, and even his current work projects. Saini has been reaching out to Abhishek’s contacts, asking for Rs 10,000 by claiming that his Google Pay isn’t working and promising to return the money the next day.
Abhishek mentioned that he had previously reported this scammer to the police, which temporarily stopped the fraudulent activities. However, the scam has unfortunately started again. He is now urging his followers to be cautious and not fall for these tricks if they receive any suspicious messages using his name.
To tackle the issue, Abhishek has filed another police complaint, and his father has also reported the scammer. Determined to stop this, Kumar said, “Iss baar usko hum chodenge nahi” (This time, we will not let this go). He even shared the scammer’s phone number to help others avoid being tricked.
Abhishek Kumar is well-known for his role in the TV series Udaariyaan and gained a lot of fame as the first runner-up on Bigg Boss 17. He is currently winning hearts with his performances on Khatron Ke Khiladi 14, hosted by Rohit Shetty.
Through his Instagram story, Kumar emphasized his commitment to resolving this scam issue. By taking a proactive approach and issuing public warnings, Abhishek Kumar is dedicated to protecting his fans and making sure that such scams are stopped.
