Kelvin Momo is the latest celebrity to fall victim to scammers after discovering that an unknown company had been posing as his management.

Kelvin Momo warns against scammers

Kelvin Momo and his official management company released a statement on 14 July 2025 regarding the misrepresentation of the Amapiano star.

According to the statement, a company operating under the name HDS Concepts had been falsely claiming to represent Momo.

Furthermore, an individual by the name Devon, who is said to be linked to the fraudulent company, has also been posing as Momo's associate, acting on his behalf:

"We would like to firmly state that Kelvin Momo is not managed by HDS CONCEPTS or any individual claiming to be Devon. These claims are entirely false and misleading."

The statement, posted on the star's Instagram page, further emphasised that Momo is managed by TSquared Productions and warned fans and event organisers against booking with unofficial third parties:

"Any attempts to secure bookings or collaborations through third parties falsely representing the artist will be regarded as fraudulent."

The news comes at the height of Momo's career, following his monumental Redbull Symphonic event and groundbreaking album release, and it's clear that scammers are hoping to cash in on the hype.
