Promoter admits 'Phony Toni' scam
A Surinam promoter acknowledged trying to pass off a Las Vegas-based entertainer as six-time Grammy winner Toni Braxton at a disastrous show dubbed the 'Phony Toni' concert by local media, his lawyer said.
Angel Ventura told a judge he scammed people into paying up to $53 (€39.50) thinking they would hear the famous singer at a much-hyped show more than two months ago, defence lawyer Lamure Latour said.
