Was Kenny scammed?

Businessman Kenny Kunene is more popular for his sushi-eating antics than he is for his prolific business career, but it seems he might be in the news for a scam made on his business life.
There was speculation that Kenny would be bringing Drake and Nicki Minaj – two popular hip hop artists from the US – to South Africa for a concert. However, Wonted.co.za warns that he might have been scammed of $500 000!
The gossip site said an entertainment website reported that police in Toronto are hunting for Andrew Wilson, a former associate of Drake who has been posing as the Young Money rapper’s manager. He apparently made use of old copies of a contract to book a fake Nicki Minaj and Drake concert in South Africa, worth $500 000.
The South African promoter, who has actually not been named, sent the deposit to make the booking: the money was sent to an account in Singapore, and then to one in Lebanon, finally ending up in the bank account of Wilson’s aunt – a 76-year-old woman who is now also facing charges in the case.
