Siphiwe Tshabalala caught in mistaken identity drama

Johannesburg - Siphiwe Tshabalala is struggling with his identity... well at least online.

It seems like there are plenty of people online who wish they were the Kaizer Chiefs and Bafana Bafana star midfielder. So many in fact that Simphiwe has had to take to his social media accounts to warn his fans not to follow them.

The last few weeks have seen a number of people being conned by fake celeb profiles and whatsapp messages claiming to belong to celebs like Deborah Fraser and Rebecca Malope (read more about that here).

So now you know when the fake Tshaba comes asking for money, tell him to go try score somewhere else!
