Hey /u/BTTF41, it’s me ***Ashanti***, we’ve been DM’ing on Facebook for a while now. I’m fully over Nelly and want you baby. I just need 10k to hire a lawyer to get my alimony and then you’ll get millions once the case goes through
Warm regards,
Ashanti
Don’t listen to this imposter! it me, the real Ashanti you know from Facebook and my concerts you disappointingly don’t remember. All monies should be forwarded to me, thx bi.
I know right, I saw someone else who wrote hi, I'm Frank sinatra. Have you been to any of my concerts and they answered no, I was born after Frank Sinatra died. I'm thinking that this whole thing is satire.
Guys, we're not doing the Spartacus thing. I'm the real Ashanti, these days I work for the IRS and you Tax refund is pending acceptance. please contact me on facebook for help with that.
Loved your last show. BTT, you’re missing out. Frank puts on a hell of a show. And this is legitimately him, you can tell because he invited you to his concert.
Reminds me of of You Lucky Dog:
Uncle Phil from Fresh Prince tests the dog psychic's legitimacy by asking why the dog ate his Italian leather gloves.
Dog psychic quips that the dog likes Italian food.
Uncle Phil is fully convinced by the joke because jokes are excellent proof of psycho Kirk Cameron's psychic connection to the dog.
I mean I'm white and you say Ashanti in my head all I hear is "Baby baby baby baby baby". I didn't even remember she dated Nelly but everyone sure thought her and Ja were hooking up lol
This was my first thought! Like who do people even fall for this shit at this point? It’s 2022 you’d think people would be able to spot a catfish by now and an obvious one at that
And he thought he was still dating her after meeting the chick? That was wild. He needed more help thana. Reality TV show could give him.
I just have to say even though it's not the same sub but I just can't not do it...
She need money to fix her car gas MICHEAL
Right?! Like he straight told them "I think Katy would find it really funny to punk me like this so I'm still 99% sure I'm dating Katy Perry" lmfao and THEN after they spoke to the chick he had apparently emailed her after the show still thinking she was Katy.. hahaha sorry I may have totally binged catfish on Hulu recently
She’s one of the biggest stars of the Murder Inc label and had a slew of hits with Ja Rule like “Always On Time”, which she is much more famous for than being with Nelly lmao. She’s also all over the headlines at the moment because of Irv Gotti’s comments about her on Drink Champs, and a documentary about Murder Inc and that era that is currently airing and is on part 3 this week
I’d never even heard of Nelly until a few years ago when my coworker couldn’t believe I didn’t know a song of his. He got really upset about it. It just never crossed my path.
Can you even call it a catfish when it’s so absurd only a complete idiot would ever fall for it?
Like, I understand the same can be said of a beautiful model messaging a fat unemployed guy who lives at home. But at least that’s banking on real psychology of loneliness and hope to make them fall for it.
But random singer messaging a person who can’t even name one song? Like who falls for that?
Maybe that’s why the catfish thought he’d fall for it 🤔 I mean he obviously fell for it. I did a quick google search and immediately found her official Instagram and Facebook page so he could have easily discovered it’s not her. Honestly at this point I think OP is cat fishing all of us with this story lmao
Don’t belittle Ashanti like that. I didn’t even know she dated Nelly. She had a successful career of her own. She was probably one of the most popular r&b artists in the early 2000s.
Oh and you’re dumb as hell of you actually believe she is messaging you on Facebook.
Who's this Ashanti person, never heard of her. I'm assuming her career is so low she's taken to messaging random people?
Most likely it's someone posing as her on a fake account
Pretty sure this is a troll post but incase it isn't.
Do a virus scan on your pc, consider factory resetting it, install some theft security incase you're stupid enough to go along with random stuff a bot sends you.
The next person that messages you will be a hot single woman who wants you to view her camera show.
Her claim was definitely not Nelly lol. How old are yall that more than one supports this Nelly narrative lol. I was alive when and a teenager when she was famous and this narrative is not correct.
Im pretty sure Ashantis claim to fame was the albums she produced and the videos she starred in. Also I bought all her albums on cd. Concrete Rose was my favorite.
Ahhhhahahaha please tell me this dude ain’t serious. Ashanti needs you to send $500 to her so she can send you back $1000 and a picture of her from her album cover
Whoever that is has prob been watching what you’ve been commenting and are posting on social media and you must give off ‘Im an easy target’ vibes. They probably already seen this post and are ecstatic about having you on the hook. That is not the real Ashanti, its either a scammer or someone you know messing with you
Google says she is still working and not married or has kids.
It's a slim chance... but still a chance.
Go for it but don't give her money or personal info.
Outside that... Feel free to enjoy the fantasy till it falls apart or proves itself.
Ashanti’s claim to fame to me is scheduling a concert at the local casino and then months later canceling the show a few days prior because she decided the crowd wasn’t going to be big enough to satisfy her ego.
I follow a female singer online. I get contacted by "really authentic" people claiming to be her fairly regularly.
Since I have been online since 1997 and have encountered almost every scam in existence, I play along.
I waste their time, end up making fun of their English skills (This person is born and raised in America, college degree. Yet barely speaks English?) and just screw with them and waste their time.
I'm like please, she's a millionaire and not stupid about it. She needs my financial help like a fish needs a bicycle.
I will analyze you, then mercilessly tear you apart you f#*king ripoff artist. Then laugh about it.
Take the "Screw with the Scumbag" challenge, it's lots of FUN!
Weird. I have almost the same situation happening to me but it's the guy from The Verge. He keeps asking me if I have been to one of his concerts and then he asked me if I had What's App to chat more and I said no and I never heard from him again.

Don’t listen to this imposter! it me, the real Ashanti you know from Facebook and my concerts you disappointingly don’t remember. All monies should be forwarded to me, thx bi.
All the other Ashantis are just imitating
Will the real Ashanti please stand up and explain why the question "have you been to my concerts?" proves anything?
Hi; real Ashanti here. If you’d been to my concerts, you’d know.
Please stand up, please stand up
Will the Real Ashanti please...oh wait someone further up already did that one. Damn!
I know right, I saw someone else who wrote hi, I'm Frank sinatra. Have you been to any of my concerts and they answered no, I was born after Frank Sinatra died. I'm thinking that this whole thing is satire.
I AM SPARTICUS!
I AM BATMAN!
AND MY AXE…?!
NO, MY AXE!
I am your father!
They lie, truly it is I, Ashanti, famous person of songs and dances, give money, no? I’m very sexy on you.
Username checks out?
Guys, we're not doing the Spartacus thing. I'm the real Ashanti, these days I work for the IRS and you Tax refund is pending acceptance. please contact me on facebook for help with that.
Ashanti has been trying to reach you regarding your car’s extended warranty.
Will the real Ashanti please stand up
Do you have an uncle who’s an ex-general from Ghana by any chance?
Why do you think it’s the real her?
I already told you! She asked me if I ever went to one of her concerts, and I said no!
Hi, Im frank Sinatra. Did you ever go to one of my concerts?
No! I wasn’t even born until after Frank Sinatra died!
Shame. But I’m glad I’ve proven my identity to you
Hey, Frank.
Good to see you, Johnny
Loved your last show. BTT, you’re missing out. Frank puts on a hell of a show. And this is legitimately him, you can tell because he invited you to his concert.
You can tell by the comma after the you. Frank was famous for his phrasing.
Hey Frank it’s me Dean Martin. Let’s sing a song for these folks sound good?
Dad?
Hi Dad, it's me, Junior. Wanna do a duet?
Thanks for the laugh 😂
Hello. My name is Metallica. Have you ever been to one of my concerts?
No
Hey, it's me Jesus. Did you join us at the last supper?

The hilarity of “Drake ft Drake” asking if it’s the real her is skipping past everyone
Yeah I almost went that way but thought too obvious. It wasn’t
On the next season of Catfish…
No, it’s not Ashanti.
you gotta be white to say ashanti’s main claim to fame was being in a relationship with NELLY 😭
Agreed.
Pffttt I didn't even know she dated Nelly. Its murrrdahhhh
I’m white and I didn’t even know they were together
Ashanti was THEE RnB It girl, J Lo's blue print. OP needs to put some respect on her name
THIS. I was like how dare you say her main claim to fame is Nelly
I mean I'm white and you say Ashanti in my head all I hear is "Baby baby baby baby baby". I didn't even remember she dated Nelly but everyone sure thought her and Ja were hooking up lol
This is exactly what I was thinking lmao. Also what I just posted. I bought all her albums.
[удалено]
yeah, that’s my point lmao
ROFL It’s rare to see someone set themselves up so hard as OP
You ever see that episode of catfish where the guy is dating Katy Perry? Do you remember how it ends?
This was my first thought! Like who do people even fall for this shit at this point? It’s 2022 you’d think people would be able to spot a catfish by now and an obvious one at that
And he thought he was still dating her after meeting the chick? That was wild. He needed more help thana. Reality TV show could give him. I just have to say even though it's not the same sub but I just can't not do it... She need money to fix her car gas MICHEAL
Omg I forgot about that part… was so embarrassing
Right?! Like he straight told them "I think Katy would find it really funny to punk me like this so I'm still 99% sure I'm dating Katy Perry" lmfao and THEN after they spoke to the chick he had apparently emailed her after the show still thinking she was Katy.. hahaha sorry I may have totally binged catfish on Hulu recently
I assume it was really her and he went to her concert? Then met Nelly?
Or on Good Girls when Boomer was dating Jessica Alba lol.
>Her main claim to fame was being in a relationship with the rapper Nelly. The shade omg
[удалено]
She’s one of the biggest stars of the Murder Inc label and had a slew of hits with Ja Rule like “Always On Time”, which she is much more famous for than being with Nelly lmao. She’s also all over the headlines at the moment because of Irv Gotti’s comments about her on Drink Champs, and a documentary about Murder Inc and that era that is currently airing and is on part 3 this week
Well I knew about Ashanti - Foolish but had no idea about her relationship with Nelly until now, so...
She's been trying to reach you about your cars extended warranty
bruh for you to say the only thing she is famous for is being with Nelly....whew I bet your friends never give you the aux 😭😭
I’d never even heard of Nelly until a few years ago when my coworker couldn’t believe I didn’t know a song of his. He got really upset about it. It just never crossed my path.
I am groot 😭😂😂
You’re clearly an idiot.
Karma farmer more than an idiot, I'd say
He deserves whatever fake ashanti gives him
Can’t farm much karma from this sub lol
Hobby farmer, maybe
I’m almost 100% sure it’s a catfish.
Can you even call it a catfish when it’s so absurd only a complete idiot would ever fall for it? Like, I understand the same can be said of a beautiful model messaging a fat unemployed guy who lives at home. But at least that’s banking on real psychology of loneliness and hope to make them fall for it. But random singer messaging a person who can’t even name one song? Like who falls for that?
Well they said they were a Facebook user. I assume they might be in the older demographic
Honestly looking at OPs history it seems more likely that he’s like 12 considering he talks a lot about the chipmunks movies lol
His comment history says he's 21 but I can't fathom how a 21 year old could fall for such a classic catfish.
Wishful thinking? If I got a message from Paul Rudd today saying he wants to divorce his wife for me I’d absolutely love to believe that lol
Fair point lol, but it doesn't seem like OP cares that much about Ashanti in the first place so I'm not sure how plausible that reasoning is.
Maybe that’s why the catfish thought he’d fall for it 🤔 I mean he obviously fell for it. I did a quick google search and immediately found her official Instagram and Facebook page so he could have easily discovered it’s not her. Honestly at this point I think OP is cat fishing all of us with this story lmao
Nah, seems totally legit. Fuck u talkin bout?
Don’t belittle Ashanti like that. I didn’t even know she dated Nelly. She had a successful career of her own. She was probably one of the most popular r&b artists in the early 2000s. Oh and you’re dumb as hell of you actually believe she is messaging you on Facebook.
i didnt even know she dated nelly
Oh yeah, it’s the real Ashanti without a doubt. Hi, this is Madonna, have you ever seen the pictures of my hairy cooter? Would you like too?
No and no.
How old are you? I get not knowing this if you were born after 2000 but Ashanti was definitely on the radio a lot back in the day.
I was born in February 2001, so I'm 21.
Who's this Ashanti person, never heard of her. I'm assuming her career is so low she's taken to messaging random people? Most likely it's someone posing as her on a fake account
I met a stripper named Ashanti once. Nice lady, but don’t think she was legit.
Ashanti played Dorothy in the muppets wizard of oz.. she was big back in the day
I know that! I actually have that movie on DVD! I love the Muppets!
Not sure what she's doing now, but I'm absolutely certain it ain't messaging random people asking if they attended a concert lmao
Pretty sure this is a troll post but incase it isn't. Do a virus scan on your pc, consider factory resetting it, install some theft security incase you're stupid enough to go along with random stuff a bot sends you. The next person that messages you will be a hot single woman who wants you to view her camera show.
Op r u the real ashanti- making up fb posts 😂😂
She’s got Grammies but sure…Nelly is her claim to fame 🙄🙄
Dude, Ashanti was sort of a big deal in her own right for a while
Her claim was definitely not Nelly lol. How old are yall that more than one supports this Nelly narrative lol. I was alive when and a teenager when she was famous and this narrative is not correct.
Her main claim to fame was dating the rapper Nelly? Wow, rude! She had multiple bangers.
Im almost 100% it’s not her and almost 2000% sure this is made up BS for attention
I’m not making it up!
Im pretty sure Ashantis claim to fame was the albums she produced and the videos she starred in. Also I bought all her albums on cd. Concrete Rose was my favorite.
Tell her you’re R.Kelly her long lost husband. That should get rid of her 🤣
Uh... They were never married. Like ever.
No clue who ashanti is but mate, you're falling for the oldest trick in the book. This isn't the real celebrity
If you enjoy 90s r and b go look her up. Lots of hits. She was everywhere for a while :).
Unfortunately not my thing, i generally find it a bit too slow but that certainly adds to the fact it definitely wasn't her lol
Subreddit checks out
I love this sub so much
Anyone who is famous for dating a famous person deserves to be forgotten.
[удалено]
Some of them are scammers impersonating as celebrities.
Ahhhhahahaha please tell me this dude ain’t serious. Ashanti needs you to send $500 to her so she can send you back $1000 and a picture of her from her album cover
OK look will the real Ashanti please stand up?
She played a gig in baraboo, Wisconsin last week. Hitting all the major dairyland cultural hubs apparently.
Damn this thread is the reason I learned Ashanti is actually on the weezy remix of wockesha lol
I knew the comments would be good 😂
You should claim to be Nelly.
If the account isn’t verified then it’s not her. It’s not hard to tell.
I’m dying
Probably more like A-scam-ti
Say my name say my name when no one ends around you say baby I love you while the sudden chan
Whoever that is has prob been watching what you’ve been commenting and are posting on social media and you must give off ‘Im an easy target’ vibes. They probably already seen this post and are ecstatic about having you on the hook. That is not the real Ashanti, its either a scammer or someone you know messing with you

Sounds like a case for Nev and Kamie 🐈⬛ 🐟 😂
My name is jeff.
Did she leave you sitting mouth open like "woah"?
No
Tell her to send an audio of her singing Foolish for shits and giggles
Weird. I have almost the same situation happening to me but it's the guy from The Verge. He keeps asking me if I have been to one of his concerts and then he asked me if I had What's App to chat more and I said no and I never heard from him again.
ashante mademoiselle Ashanti
It’s me! Asshatty
