R. Kelly's Reps 'Put A Fork' In Scam Claims


(WENN) R&B star R. Kelly has denied involvement in an alleged $130,000 tour ticket scam. The singer has been accused of profiting from a fraud in South Africa after a local woman,

Busiswe Zakwe, was arrested on suspicion of swindling investors. It is claimed she promised them they would benefit from ticket sales if they brought an R. Kelly tour to the country in 2005. The concerts never happened, but Zakwe allegedly kept the money and deposited some of it into the star's bank account. But the singer denies any knowledge of the incident, and insists he doesn't even know who Zakwe is.
