Brazil legend, Adriano has reportedly sent a terrifying warning to a con artist who used his identity to steal thousands of dollars from his mother.

According to Goal, the 43-year-old did not hold back when confronting the person who had defrauded his mother of a substantial amount of money in a video posted to his social media accounts.

The former forward clarified that he had been successfully impersonated by a con artist, who persuaded his mother to send money under false pretenses.

The retired star responded angrily to the betrayal of trust and the targeting of a vulnerable family member, setting a deadline for the money’s return before taking matters into his own hands.

“You scoundrel, you better give it back, because I’m going to hunt you down like a demon,” the Brazilian warned in the clip.

Adriano used religious imagery to highlight the seriousness of his intentions as the threat quickly intensified. He made it apparent that he had no patience and that the offender had gone too far.
