Operatives of the Abuja Head Office of EFCC have apprehended seven internet fraudsters at the Sunshine Estate, Gwarinpa. They are: Asuquo Happiness, Agboje Lucky, Emmanuel Ochuko Okume, Lucky Ijire, Karo Ijire, Chinaka Chijoke Promise and Ibrahim Adiat.

The suspects, who were arrested on June 11, 2019, had in their possession a Toyota Camry 2018 and a Toyota Corolla, as well as mobile phones. Investigations into their nefarious activities, which spanned months, revealed that they specialized in stealing people’s identities on social media, particularly FaceBook and Instagram. They then use the stolen identities to create fake profiles, using same to establish fraudulent relationships, with the aim of defrauding their victims.

Some of the aliases used to perpetrate online fraud, include, James Bord, Tom Clanson, Paul Hanson, Clinton Maher, Richard Jordan and David Morgan. One of them uses phishing as his modus operandi where he sends out bulk messages and malware with viruses, which when the target clicks on the message, they are able to gain access into their victim’s information. Another claims he goes to the “dark web” to buy hacked logins to look for any business transaction and double cross the transaction using another account.

One of the suspects confessed to creating over 20 social media accounts. They further confessed to having at various times made $5,479, $4,900, $1,500, $2,500, $7,000, $27,000, which were received through Western Union, Bitcoin, exchangers, and through Nigerians based outside the country, who have offshore accounts.

IF MUHAMMED BUHARI STARTS ARRESTING FULANI JIHADISTS HERDSMEN LIKE THIS, THERE WILL BE PEACE IN NIGERIA IN NO TIME

Is internet fraudsters the same thing as Yahoo boys?

NCAN reporting

This one na collabo.

Who collects all these seized properties and money? Is it Magu or his Children? Or some other corrupt Officers? Because I'm sure they don't remit everything to the FG!


The little ones they remit to FG will also be embezzled! Nigeria is already filled with corruption.


Some of those People arrested are innocent. SARS go around harassing innocent Boys, and if they can't settle them, they release them to EFCC for prosecution.

Useless Country!

This shit is getting outta hand

They even work with banks now

re

Only if they could be strict with the polithiefcians. A good government should 1st find out what led to the increase in internet fraud. They're busy chasing dem about

Chai

While a Single man is being given 2.5 billion as retirement package. Mtcheew Mad people.

Urhobo boys gats chill.

Must their names be involved in every arrest?

but why do they keep increasing,instead of decreasing,instead of mr president to santion this people,he is busy changing june 12 to democracy day.SMH

On a more serious note, if you have the IQ to be doing yahoo online, you must have the IQ to set up a legit online business.

But no, infecting other peoples computers with a virus to steal their money..

Good job efcc

Nice one from EFCC.
magu currently doing a great job, had it been the previous efcc boss acted this way...things won't have gotten out of hand so fast.
and for the youths being unemployed is not enough reason to get into crime...many do involve in crime out of greed....

Times are tough but crime is not the way.

We leave in a terrible world where uncertainty drives men to misbehave.

Jesus is the answer at this crucial time. No one can survive this period without him if you will not cheat, kill, defraud, or comit suicide...etc.
.

He sends the holy spirit to comfort us and give us hope of tomorrow.

Accept Jesus today and have peace regardless of the situation around you.
.

The world is coming to an end. Repent and change your ways...


If you die suddenly now without time to ask for mercy, where would you find yourself?

EFCC as not come out to Gorilla that eaten 7milloion so na only dis guys offend God.

EFCC was created to go after corrupt politicians..

But as the FG is shielding the corrupt ones among them, EFCC have no choice than to pounced on fraudsters..

The question is, is their no longer corrupt politicians or government workers in Nigeria again?

Heavenschild:
Is internet fraudsters the same thing as Yahoo boys?

YEA

This is serious o

Round them all up!!!

They were allowed to roam for too long. Good job EFCC.

I am scared of where this country is heading.

The weakness of a child is partly the failure of his father.

How many people noticed since EFCC began clamping down these guys, ritual killing news has reduced?

Now the politicians who are the head of fraud are left alone i think they purposely did this so all eyes will be on yahoo boys only. SMH arrest their teachers too.

Una dey use style to teach some innocent upcoming marlians

That's not a 2018 Camry
