Chinwendu Azuonwu, 38, is accused of masquerading as the “Uptown Funk” singer on social media to cheat a 63-year-old woman out of tens of thousands of dollars. The pair allegedly met on Instagram in 2018, according to charging documents obtained by Oxygen.com, after the woman joined social media to connect and find companionship. Over the course of several weeks, she and the man she believed was Mars communicated frequently on the social media app and via Google Hangouts.  The 63-year-old, who has not been publicly named, was under the impression she was in a “meaningful relationship” with the famous entertainer, investigators said.
