There are good sides to being a star, but there are also very bad sides. Kev Adams
will probably not say the opposite. He who was the victim of identity theft a few hours ago as he announced on his Instagram account this Monday March 4, 2024. Unfortunately, he is not the first and will not be the last.
Indeed, with the emergence of social networks, more and more stars are the subject of identity theft by criminals. The latter then attempt to dupe the fans of an actor, actress, singer, singer, or even athlete, to extract money from them. Amel Bent, Laurence Boccolini, Patrick Bruel, and even Slimane, have already paid the price.
