Generations actress Namhla Diale Fed-up of Facebook Impostors

This is not the first time that a celebrity or famous person in South Africa and worldwide has had to complain against fake social media accounts created in their name. Given the relative ease to sign up on most platforms and the lack of verification needed, brands and individuals are having to swat down daily attempts to sabotage their reputations.

The actress, popularly known for her role as Namhla Diale the daughter of ex-convict Lucy Diale on Generations:The Legacy, says that she has quit Facebook because there are just too many accounts pretending to be her.

"I tried to open a Facebook account but there were too many fake ones that already existed which had huge followings that it made it difficult FOR ME to grow my following and remain active without being accused of being a fake account. LOL! So I just deleted it," the star wrote on her Instagram account .

The star has warned fans not to fall for any messages they see from her on Facebook.
