Buhle Samuels, a former Muvhango actress, appears to have been caught in the web trying to keep up with the Joneses. If the charges she is facing are true, Samuels has clearly been caught up in the fake social media lifestyle that is always paraded by some socialites.
The actress is accused of fraud and forgery in connection with a high-end Porsche SUV that she posted on social media as a birthday present she had given to herself.
On Wednesday, the actress, who portrayed Matshidiso on the SABC2 soapie, made an appearance at the Alexandra Magistrate’s Court.
Samuels allegedly forged signatures and fabricated corporate paperwork in order to obtain the expensive car.
