Wales rugby star Sam Cross tricks four teammates into sending birthday messages to to bogus people with rude names
A RUGBY star tricked teammates into sending birthday video messages to bogus people with rude names.
Wales flanker Sam Cross fooled four Ospreys players with his cheeky prank.
Cross, 27, passed the films to their pals before owning up.
Hooker Scott Otten, 25, was duped into sending 50th birthday wishes to “Tess Tekells”.
He said: “I’d like to wish Tess Tekells happy birthday from all the Ospreys boys.
“Thank you very much for the support and I hope to see you down the Liberty Stadium soon.”
Wales centre Owen Watkin, 23, said in his recording: “Hello. I just want to wish Isaac Hunt a massive happy 50th birthday.
“I know it’s a bit different to other years but I’m sure you’ll make the most of it.
“Have an amazing day mate and stay safe.”
Wales prop Nicky Smith, 26, and clubmate Tom Botha, 29, fell into the trap — talking to “Lee Keybutt” and “Amanda Hugankiss”
Otten said after finding out: “I’m going into hiding . . . thanks.”
Cross later said: “Sorry for any offence caused.
