I got scammed trying to join Wizkid’s record Label – Seyi Vibez

Nigerian music Star, Seyi Vibez has recounted how he was scammed while trying to join Wizkid’s record label, Starboy Entertainment, in the early days of his career.

During a recent interview with Wazobia FM, the ‘Instagram’ crooner recalled searching on Google for ways to join Starboy Entertainment and got a phone number on the website, who ended up duping him.

Seyi Vibez revealed that he called the number and was told to pay N10,000 for a registration form, which he did, only for him to get blocked after paying.

He said:

“I remember when I was 13 years old, I wanted to sign to Starboy, I went to Google and typed, ‘How to register to Starboy record label.’ I saw one number and I called the number, the guy who picked it up said I should pay for form N10,000.”

“That was how I sold my phone and paid the guy N10,000 but after the payment he blocked me. He told me that he was Wizkid’s recruitment officer. I said I would come for the screening; I would perform and Wizkid would judge my performance. So, I fell for it.”

He advised upcoming artists to desist from signing up for any record label on social media as it a means to an end.
