A Facebook user, Mr Prince Gwamnishu Harrison has been exposed after he allegedly swindled unsuspecting Facebook users of millions of Naira for an urgent fake kidney disease and transplant.

Not until Prince Gwamnishu Harrison was offered an opportunity to run a test to really confirm his need for the transplant and he was asked to provide previous medical reports and he refused, did his story become suspicious.

APOLOGY FROM MY SICK BED
For the past weeks, I have been a subjected matter of intense criticism, condemnation and attacks from friends, foes and online community.
The issues that generated this attacks on my person came from a seemingly ignorant claim I made regarding my health status. I had made claims that I was suffering from end stage kidney failure.
My claims was from the limit of my ignorance about medical matters. I was indeed diagnosed with a kidney infection. In my panic and complete hysteria, I concluded I was dying and that my kidney was packing up. I have lived my life so far on social media. The bulk of my friends are on social media. Out of fear and desperation for help, I cried out to my friends on social media.
My claims may have been exaggerated. But as at the time I was making the claims, I had in all sincerity believed in the correctness of my claims. I am NOT a fraudster. I apologise to all my fans, supporters and friends for my error of judgement.
Everyone makes mistakes in life. I have made mine. But I do not want to continue to pay for them for the rest of my lives.
Sometimes good people make bad choices, but that doesn’t mean they’re bad people. It just means they are human…!
I AM INDEED SORRY.
