Amapiano heavyweight Sam Deep is asking fans and industry professionals to steer clear of his usual bookings contact number after it fell into the wrong hands.

His management team released an official public statement on Monday, 8 September 2026, confirming that the primary bookings line had been compromised and was now in the hands of an unauthorised person. Anyone who continues using the old number risks falling victim to a scam or fraudulent interaction.

Sam Deep's temporary contact details

While the team works to regain control of the hacked number, they have set up alternative channels to keep business running in the meantime. For general and booking enquiries, the public is asked to reach out via email at booksamdeep@gmail.com. Anyone with an urgent matter is directed to contact management on WhatsApp at +27 76 296 6218.

The team said they were hopeful the situation would be resolved quickly, expressing confidence that the number could be secured within a matter of hours.

Management apologises and calls for public help

Beyond putting out the warning, management also extended an apology to fans, promoters, and business partners for the disruption caused by the breach. They made a direct appeal for the public to spread the word as widely as possible, ensuring that legitimate booking requests find their way to the correct team rather than to whoever is currently holding the compromised number.

Sam Deep, who is regarded as one of the key architects of the amapiano sound, commands a busy touring and events schedule, making a functioning and secure bookings line critical to his operations. The breach serves as a reminder of how vulnerable public-facing contact details can be, particularly for high-profile artists whose numbers circulate widely across the industry.

Thatohatsi and Sam Dee rumoured to be dating

Amapiano DJ Sam Deep and singer Thatohatsi apparently hinted at a romantic relationship through a social media post on Monday, 20 July 2026.

X blog page TheAudioLabSA flagged the pair's post, suggesting the two artists were quietly going public with their connection.
