Kgalalelo Loveline Abinokhauno, also known as Moloko, with her husband.
The sentencing proceedings of four convicted fraudsters, including a woman that was in the Real Housewives of Cape Town reality show are expected to continue in the Cape Town Regional Court later this week following their conviction in a sophisticated online dating scam that fleeced two foreign women of more than R3.2 million.
The group, Uguchukwu Nawachukwu, Stanley Osakwe, Bright Odumo Ogedengbe and Kgalalelo Loveline Abinokhauno, also known as Moloko, were found guilty of fraud after targeting two victims from North America through an elaborate romance scam.
According to the State, the victims, one from the United States and the other from Canada, were lured through online dating platforms into believing they were communicating with an American engineer working on a project in South Africa.
The fictitious engineer repeatedly claimed to be facing emergencies and financial setbacks, convincing the women to transfer substantial sums of money with promises that they would be repaid. Unfortunately, the repayments never materialised.
