If you don’t know who that is, American Onijah Andrew Robinson recently went viral after claiming she flew to Pakistan to marry a 19-year-old she met online, only to be rejected. Instead of returning home, she has become somewhat of a celebrity in Pakistan, holding high-profile press conferences

American Onijah Andrew Robinson, who went viral after claiming she flew to Pakistan to marry a 19-year-old she met online but was rejected, has now announced her entry into the cryptocurrency market.
Robinson, who became known as the "American woman in Pakistan" after her story spread on social media, made the announcement in an interview with City 21 news channel last week.
"I would like to say I am launching a bitcoin under Onijah, but it would run under Nidal Ahmed," she stated in a viral clip.
Memon, for those keeping track, is the name of the man she apparently traveled to Karachi to meet and marry in October last year. At the time of the coin launch, Robinson had overstayed her visa in Pakistan by at least two months, remaining in the country despite her permit expiring.
According to Pakistani TikToker Bilal Hassan, who has been translating the saga into English for audiences around the world, Robinson allegedly catfished Memon during their online interactions, using a filter that made her appear as a blonde white woman.
This revelation reportedly alarmed Memon's mother, who locked Robinson out of their home and disappeared with the entire family. "Nobody knows where they went," Hassan claims.
A man claiming to be Robinson's son told a local news outlet that she has a history of mental illness and local news reports say she was admitted to a Pakistani hospital in February, where she was seen by psychiatrists.
However, in recent weeks Robinson became a minor hit in Pakistani media. In one press conference, Robinson announced a plan to "reconstruct this whole country." In order to do that, she said she needed $100,000 in donations.
In another press conference, she asked for a weekly payment of at least $2,000. "I want $20,000 up front, $5,000-$10,000 to stay here every week," she said, according to videos circulating on TikTok. "And I want those demands from the government right away."
