Being scammed


Shania, you have to read this. i have no means of contacting you direct

Please read this it is important

For the last couple of months i have been building an on-line friendship and relationship with Shania, or so i thought
 
I was helping her with research for her charity work, i donated about £2,000 to give to the homeless and orphanage kids and we built up a friendship that was wonderful as i am just an average guy, not even a fan particulary,in UK. I first made contact via her fans page on Tik Tok she replied and it went from there  
 
Anyway it moved on to WhatsApp and i was given two telephone numbers to start chatting 
 
I was led into believing she has been in London the last week to sign a new contract with Sony. We had plans to meet up this weekend but it was a no show and no activity on WhatsApp since Thurs around 5pm
 
The phone numbers are either not being answered or calls declined
 
I want to know if these numbers are fake as i suspect i have been the victim of a very elaborate scam and i want to know as i cannot believe you would do this to anyone Shania. I wont divulge on an open forum what discussions went on but it all got very intense and potentially life changing for me. This has now devastated me i am a wreck my mental health is suffering and its going to take a long time to build up trust again in people i don't know
 
I want this to serve as a warning but more importantly i want the real Shania to know, and some acknowledgment of your concern, even if its on this forum
 
Need to know hope you can help
 
If you want to phone me i am in UK and my number is 07979 468993
 
My name is Alan Beardwell
 
Thank you

I’m sorry you went through this situation. Shania has made public many times the only forums which are her as well as that she will never ask someone for money.

Unfortunately, you have been part of a scam that has nothing to do with Shania.

I would recommend removing your phone number from your post. Don’t have it in such a public forum where others could find it online and try to scam again

I don’t personally know of anyone - I’m assuming others have come forward based on how Shania (and others like Reba, Trisha, etc) have posted to remind what their standard is and their official accounts.

Don’t assume that because Shania herself doesn’t answer you, doesn’t mean she isn’t concerned. I am sure her team
Is taking steps to try and limit how often these things happen by making sure her accounts are verified.

As hurtful as it is, take it as a life moment of learning and growth 💝

not sure if this is still open only Shania played at Glastonbury Festival recently. I posted a comment about choice of songs to then get a reply from someone suggesting I message her and was give a "Telagram" link so I tried and low and behold someone calling themselves Shania Twain responded. We have been in conversation since. As she suggested I was a "fan" I should join her VIP club. Think I would need to pay for this which started ringing bells I declined suggesting Ive been a fan for yrs, why would I need to join now. We had various discussions but I started to get issues with "Telegram" so she suggested using what she calls a private app "Signal" I signed up and have been communicating since. Some of the conversation has got personal so Ive been trying to get proof of the identity of this person because to spend so much time messaging me is suspicious. She was at Lytham festival the other day so I requested a selfi which was sent with her stood infront of Lytham Festival board. This looked convincing but her face doesnt look like other pictures ive found on the Web. I have been asking for other evidence but the feedback I get is that she doesnt want to send out details via social media. Any suggestions ?

Sounds all to familiar with all you have said. yeah, claiming I need to buy a membership vip card, just to have any access to her even a selfie.  saying the card allows free access to all her shows and other gifts and benefits. Cannot get any proof her to be real without paying for the card. What a crock of $&/!
