Several fake WhatsApp accounts are using the photos of popular actresses Aditi Rao Hydari and Shriya Saran to cheat people. These accounts are pretending to be the actresses and contacting fans, photographers, and industry professionals. They offer fake modelling jobs, photoshoots, and event invitations, asking for money or personal details.
Aditi Rao Hydari’s team confirmed that she does not communicate directly through WhatsApp for any professional work. All official communication is only handled through her verified representatives. She warned people not to trust any random number using her name or picture.
Shriya Saran also spoke out about the issue. She said that a fake account is using her images to message people and make false promises. She clearly stated that she has no connection with such accounts and does not ask anyone for money or personal information through WhatsApp.
Both actresses Aditi Rao and Shriya Saran urged the public to be careful and report such fake profiles. They also reminded fans to follow only their verified social media accounts for real updates.
Cyber safety experts say these scams are increasing as criminals use celebrity photos to trick people. They advise everyone to check official pages before believing any message. They also suggest not sharing private information or making payments unless it is fully verified.
Authorities have been informed, and efforts are being made to track the people behind these fake accounts. The actresses have asked people to stay alert and help stop the spread of false identities.
This incident highlights the growing problem of misuse of celebrity images on the internet. It also shows the need for stronger rules to protect people from online fraud and identity theft.
