Brad Pitt’s Rep Speaks Out After Police Arrest Imposters for Allegedly Posing as Actor, Scamming Over $350K from Women

Brad Pitt‘s rep is speaking out after scammers were arrested for allegedly pretending to be the actor in order to take money from women on social media.

A rep for the Oscar winner, 60, who does not have any official social media accounts, tells PEOPLE in a statement Sept. 25, “It’s awful that scammers take advantage of fans’ strong connection with celebrities, and this is an important reminder to not respond to unsolicited online outreach, especially from actors who have no social media presence.”

Spain’s Ministry of the Interior said in a Sept. 23 statement that five people were arrested and more are under investigation in connection to a “criminal organization” that allegedly defrauded over $350,000 from two women online.

The scammers, authorities said, posed as a “fake Brad Pitt” to target his fans.

In the press release, translated to English, authorities said the scammers messaged the victims as if they were Pitt, promising them a romantic relationship in the future. After building trust, the alleged scammers asked the women to transfer money to invest in various projects with him.

Three suspects were arrested in November and two more were arrested in July. Their charges include fraud, money laundering and forgery.

Several celebrities have spoken out to warn fans of fraudulent accounts claiming to be them while attempting to solicit and scam on social media, including Whoopi Goldberg, Tom Hanks, Johnny Depp .

In August, Florence Pugh shared a statement on her Instagram Stories saying, “Just wanted to remind everyone that I don’t have any other account other than this one. No private pages or private chats or private messaging accounts.. just this one.”

“Been brought to my attention that some people have been asked for money/pictures/communication through pages pretending to me,” the actress, 28, added at the time.

“I’m firstly sorry that this is a weird hobby that some people like doing, and I’m also sorry that you were [led] to believe that those spaces were save. Please unfollow and reports.

So the wife and I get a call from my son-in-law yesterday when we were sitting on the veranda, and we were told about this happening on an absolutely ridiculous scale. We saw some pics and almost came apart at the seams. I have never, ever, ever (with the exception of Cecilio Miller waving a knife at cops on Red Frog Beach) wanted to POST something more. I very rarely ever get something this AUDACIOUS to yap about, and I would like nothing more than to BLAST all of these persons names over the INTERNET and watch it trend more than my “SPOCK” ROMELO ROUX post a few years back.

But the CHERRY on the CAKE is WHERE it occurred and WHO it PISSED OFF!!!!

A few of my “peeps” can easily determine who I’m referring to so please just smile and chuckle amongst yourselves.

The wife, (not always the funniest), actually had 2 Cosmopolitans while I had my Bourbon, and made me laugh. Steve compared them to drawing LeBRON JAMES name out of a hat for a Basketball game. And she mumbled out “Yeah, but LeBRON won’t follow you home, destroy your credit, and find out your having an affair”. LMFAO—– I had to give her credit on that one. I hope I can show these PHOTOS and NAMES, as this story will have LEGS. “TMZ”…….here comes “PNO”.
