Scammer pretending to be The Weeknd

He befriended me online and once he got my trust he scammed me out of $800 for a ticket on cash app. I’ve been talking to this person since March 2022. When I requested my money back he refused to return it and was very inconsistent with his story. He is a catfish who has multiple Instagram accounts using different people/celebrities pictures he downloaded from the internet and Pinterest. The number also is a text app number from California, but his Instagram account originated from Brazil.

A business associate received what she thought was a legit email intended for my boss. She ****** ** ********** forwarded it to us.

I believe this to be a phishing scam related to a "fake" online purchase. See the last paragraph of the email.

Someone should tell the organizers of "The Weeknd: The After Hours Tour"
