The digital fight between the renowned Pakistani fashion designer Maria B and Turkish influencer Turkan Atay is not ending, but it is now going on an extreme level.
After Maria B's official statement, Turkan became in more anger and put the reality in front of the public.
Maria B, in her official notice, mentioned that there was a misunderstanding regarding the payment; otherwise, they will always pay well and respect their digital community. Maria B also said that her team arranged a meeting to clear everything with Turkan, whereas Turkan now exposed that Maria B is lying and that there was no meeting arranged to sort out things.
Turkan further takes a bold stance against Maria B and exposes her ugly behavior.
Talking about it, she said, “Maria and her team are so fraudulent. Maria herself is an extremely fraudulent woman. If I start catching her lies, they won’t end. She wrote in her story that Türkan asked for extra payment. What extra payment did I demand? I spit on your payment. You only had to take information from your brand and write an official apology. You think that you can buy people with your money. You can do this to poor people, not me! I won’t stay quiet. Team Maria B also lied about arranging a meeting with me, which they didn’t. I will expose them and name and shame them. Maria B, you have to publicly apologize to me and keep your money to yourself. We know all about you, especially what you did to your house help during Corona and how you used Palestine cause for personal gains. You have to apologize, otherwise I won’t leave you, aunty!!”
The fight had started when Turkish content creator Turkan Atay publicly accused Maria B of failing to provide full payment for a brand photoshoot conducted in Turkey earlier this year.
Taking to Instagram, Atay detailed her involvement in the campaign, saying that she had shared all necessary expenses and logistical details with the brand prior to the shoot.
She said that in Turkey, things are different; we have to pay for the venue and for each dress as well as other production expenses, and for that, she demanded to be paid for each dress.
She also submitted a comprehensive quotation covering all the costs, but still, Maria has not paid, and it's been 3 months now.
Maria B has also expressed her side of the story. She said, “This Turkish influencer has created so much scandal on social media, but I was quiet for a reason because one of my junior PR girls committed a mistake. Firstly, the influencer herself contacted me for a campaign, which we agreed to. Now, we have paid her hundreds of dollars, our dresses are with her, now what should I do with that girl, should I throw her under the bus, I can’t be that rude to a new girl, and we haven’t refused to pay her. We have delayed payments, and we tried to contact her, but she is behaving in an aggressive way, saying that I will post more videos against you.
