Rafael Nadal, as the press conferences at the recently played ATP Finals once again underlined, is a man who is always available to journalists to answer questions, regardless of the results. Nadal is also one of the few who stay with the fans after losing matches and still write autographs despite a defeat. So the thought that Rafa, who has earned more than $ 120 million in prize money in his career, would offer a word donation for money seems absurd. Apparently a few hackers tried to make money with this scam.
Nadal, who had served the victory in London in the semifinals against the eventual winner Daniil Medvedev at 5: 4 in the second set, now commented on his Facebok page. And apologized for any inconvenience this may have caused.
"It seems that some hackers are demanding money on my behalf in order to take part in stories and various online and social media interactions," the 20-time major winner wrote. "IMPORTANT - This is not the truth, and nobody should pay any money to talk or interact with me. Please take care. Thank you and my apologies if anyone causes you trouble. Rafa."
