Korean American star Daniel Henney has warned fans of a "fake Daniel Henney" who asks for money on social media.

"We have received reports from fans that the scammer asked them for money while pretending to be him through direct messages or emails," his agency Echo Global Group said in a statement Friday.

The group on to say, "Henney will never ask for money under any circumstance."

Except for his current official social media accounts, the actor does not have any other secondary account, the agency noted.

Henney debuted in Korea through the 2005 TV drama "My Lovely Sam Soon." He expanded his acting career to the United States and starred in police procedural drama "Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders" in 2016. He joined the series "Criminal Minds" as a main cast member the following year.
