Through her socials Wakavinye narrated how the whole encounter transpired noting were it not for her man she would have ended up losing a whole lot of man.

“Wacheni niwaambie, I was about to be conned. Na mimi ni mzaliwa wa NRB (and I am born and raised in Nairobi),” started off the mother of 2 highlighting she understands by now she should be impervious to all the tricks and tact that these devious thieves use.

Cele went on to narrate her encounter with the said con men and how great their web of lies, that she almost got caught in, were. The content creator noted that they preyed on her instincts as a mother which threw her into panic mode without clearly assessing the situation.

“Someone calls me and pretends to be my JSS student teacher ati wamekimbiza mtoto hosi she had an accident and she is loosing a lot of blood wanataka doh wamfanye operation

Weeeeuh sema mshtuko,” added the mother of 2.

“I was about to send money as I rush to the hosi only for Kimani to ask me nipigie matron ama director wao niskie. Kucall teacher mtoto ako kwa class anasoma tu. Nkt! Na kidogo nilie.

My point is hawa wakora washindwe nkt. Hadi saa hii bado natetemeka aki. Number yake ndio hii 0780374199 kama ukona time mcall utoe stress na yeye. But nimeshaireport!” The last of her post read as her story came to an end.
