Has the old Nigerian letter scam hit the entertainment industry? A Nigerian promoter named Chris Ubosi and his company Megalectrics have sued Rihanna, Jay Z, and Roc Nation in the hopes of reclaiming the $160,000 he says he paid Riri and her team as an advance for a concert she never performed back in 2013.
According to TMZ, Chris claims Rihanna and friends bailed on the scheduled show date and offered to reschedule.
He demanded they post the date for the redo on social media but says they never did, leading him to file suit. A rep for Roc Nation, however, tells TMZ: "[Neither] Rihanna, Roc Nation nor anyone associated personally or professionally with either party was in contact with this person. Unfortunately, this person was scammed. [Neither] Rihanna nor Roc Nation collected any money for this event."
