“My family’s safety, as well as the innocent people being taken advantage of, is my deep concern, and there will be a time when I will comment more, but for now our focus is helping law enforcement handle this matter,” Sandra told People in a statement.

“Please be aware that I do not participate in any form of social media. Any accounts pretending to be me or anyone associated with me are fake accounts and have been created for financial gain or to exploit people around me,” she added.

The statement comes a day after Sandra‘s 54-year-old sister, Gesine Bullock-Prado, took to Instagram to reveal that multiple fake accounts pretending to be her have been extorting fans out of large sums of money.

“These accounts are run by crime rings. They also run fake groups where a fake me posts ‘official statements.’ Not me. This is my only account and y’all know it’s about baking, cooking, animals, and gardening. I’m a grown assed middle aged woman with a life and I don’t troll around at 54 DMing people. These crime rings and scams are well known by the company and the world,” Gesine captioned the post.

In a similar situation, Brad Pitt spoke out last month, condemning the case where a 53-year-old woman was conned out of $850,000 by a person pretending to be the 61-year-old actor. Read what Brad said about it here.
