Police have arrested popular Kenyan TikToker Maria “Rish” Kamunge, who is accused of scamming Kenyans out of millions of shillings through her overseas job agency, Trustpin.
On Wednesday, victims stormed her Nairobi CBD office, presenting evidence of job promises that were never fulfilled and payments made to her agency.
Rish’s lawyer claimed that rogue associates had misrepresented her agency and assured that she would refund all clients who did not secure jobs.
She was frog-marched by police from her office to the Central Police Station, where authorities have launched an investigation into Trustpin’s operations. Nairobi Central Sub-County Commander Stephen Okal has urged all victims to come forward and record statements with the police.
