Olympic figure skating champion Roman Kostomarov warned fans that strangers were using his name for fraudulent purposes.
Since January this year, Kostomarov has suffered several amputations after being hospitalized. In early July, the 46-year-old skater announced he was released from hospital.
– There are many fake Telegram channels, the only real one is this one, which has about 50,000 subscribers. I do not collect money, be careful, ”Kostomarov said in a video message on the Telegram channel.
Last week, Kostomarov appeared on the ice for the first time in front of the public after illness and operations at Ilya Averbukh’s show in Sochi. The skater, having skated with his wife Oksana Domnina, came out onto the ice in sneakers and hugged her.
