Arshad Nadeem, a Pakistani Olympian, sent a video message to his followers on Wednesday through his official Twitter account, apologizing for providing the incorrect account information in a previous video.
In the video, Nadeem claims that when introducing his newly established Twitter account, which is really @Arshadnadeem76, he accidentally said @Arshadnadeem26.

He cautioned that someone has already created a Twitter account with the username @Arshadnadeem26, adding that followers should be cautious since it is not his account.
‘Fraudulent activity under my name’
On Tuesday, Nadeem informed his followers in a written message that someone was scamming them by collecting money in the guise of supporting him.
“Dear all I am Arshad Nadeem. I just want to warn you all regarding fraudulent activity being carried out [under] my name for my support. I have not authorized anybody to collect money in my name. Be careful of such people,” he wrote.
