“Apparently, there are some hackers asking for money on my behalf to participate in stories, lives, or different on-line and social media interactions. IMPORTANT – This is not true and no one should pay any money to talk or interact with me. Please pay attention to that,” wrote Rafa on his Facebook post.

The false claims definitely made Nadal upset. He, therefore, himself wrote on social media in order to let his fans know that he would never do any thing of the kind.
