The Grammy-winning artist took to Instagram to deny any connection to cryptocurrency promotions and urged fans to ignore any internet “coin” business claiming affiliation with him.

“I don’t do any internet ‘coin’ business. I see it as fraud and I have no interest in any of that,” Burna Boy wrote. “So if you see anyone using my name for such, please disregard or report them.”

The fake coin, which had been gaining traction on X (formerly Twitter), appeared to exploit the musician’s identity to lure unsuspecting investors.

Burna Boy’s strong statement reinforces his rejection of online financial schemes and serves as a warning in an era where digital scams involving celebrity endorsements are on the rise.

The artist’s stance is a reminder for fans and investors to verify information and avoid schemes using celebrity likenesses without consent. He also called on the public to report fraudulent accounts and content related to the scam coin.
