Man arrested for impersonating MBC radio 2 presenter Dickie Shumba

Police have arrested a man for allegedly impersonating Malawi Broadcasting Corporation (MBC) radio 2 presenter Dickie Shumba on social media especially Facebook.

Shumba also popularly known as Dictator confirmed of the development in a statement posted on his official facebook page seen by faceofmalawi reporter.

According to the presenter, the trickster created a facebook account bearing the photos of Shumba with an aim of defrauding ladies in the country.

“Finally the Police have arrested this guy who has been impersonating me for a long time on facebook. He has been creating social accounts bearing my name and photos e.g Dickie Shumba and Dickie Shumba using them to solicit funds as well coaxing ladies.His real facebook account is @MadalaClemoreExcuser.

“In one incident he managed to dupe a Malawian based in RSA by pausing as myself and went ahead to have a relationship with the lady up to extent that she convinced the lady to be saving money for their purported engagement (chinkhoswe). The lady has so far lost over K500,000.00 in cash meant to be money for chinkhoswe and in all this the lady was thinking she was getting married to me,” wrote Shumba.

He added: “Now after a series of approaches i made with friends for several months to trap this trickster, today he has been arrested after setting a simple trap which looked like he was going to dupe us 2 Million kwacha not knowing it’s our trick to arrest him. It took me and my friend Anderson Mwakyelu who has always been part of my strategy to get this guy arrested. After getting him arrested at the police , i was shocked to learn that this same guy was being followed by another man whom he had duped on a car deal and vanished with his Toyota belta . This very guy has also been impersonating Piksy in a similar manner. Big up Malawi Police.”

The suspect will appear in court soon.
