Lerato Molwelang, A ZCC Woman, Says She is A Victim of Fake Modelling Scam After Viral Clip Showing Her Having Tlof-Tlof.

Lerato Molwelang, a young South African woman, 20-years old from Gauteng near Brakpan, has publicly spoken out after an explicit video of her in a purported porn audition, involving an encounter with a white man under the "African Casting" banner,  resurfaced and went viral on social media in January 2026.

The clip, which has been shared widely and linked to terms like "ZCC girl" due to her alleged ties to the Zion Christian Church, first gained attention earlier and trended again recently. Many online users have expressed sympathy, suggesting she was manipulated or exploited due to her age, inexperience, and promises of modeling or job opportunities via dating apps or recruiters.

In a recent video statement shared, Lerato claims she is a victim of a fake modeling scam. She states that she was exploited and publicly humiliated, with no contract ever signed. She is now considering legal action against those responsible, including the agency or individuals involved, and has reported a fake Facebook account spreading the content.

Key points from her statement (as summarized from the circulated clip):

- She describes being lured under false pretenses, possibly for a legitimate opportunity that turned exploitative.

- No formal agreement was made.

- She feels victimized by the public sharing and humiliation.

- She is pursuing accountability and legal steps to address the situation.

Lerato, who works as a chef and has connections to Brakpan East TVET College, has emphasized her ordinary background amid the backlash. Some reports mention her initial interaction starting on platforms like Tinder, with promises from a recruiter or adult content creator leading to the recording.

The incident has sparked broader discussions in South Africa about online scams, consent, manipulation in the adult industry, and the rapid, often harmful spread of private content. While opinions vary, with some questioning details of her involvement, many call for empathy and caution against sharing such material.

Lerato maintains she is an everyday person caught in an unexpected viral storm and urges respect for her privacy as she seeks resolution.
