The EFCC of the Economic and Financial Crime Commission has traced monetary activity of more than $300,000 ($3,000) to suspected Internet fraudsters.
The suspect, 35, took over in the Sabo Iyako area of Auchi, Edo, on Sunday, May 4, 2025, after reliable intelligence linked it to fraudulent Internet activity, the commission said.
“As the “chooser” or “Azaman” in Internet fraud, the investigation shows that the suspect has collected and laundered $300,000 ($300,000) for his entire group members. In addition to internet fraud, the EFCC investigation shows that the suspect is also involved in investment and bank fraud.’’
The Committee mentioned that once an investigation is concluded, the suspect will be prosecuted immediately.
