The District Attorney said that the investigation – dubbed “Operation Plastic Pipe Line” – leading to this week’s indictments and arrests began in September 2007 when police officers assigned to the Police Department’s Identity Theft Squad commenced a joint investigation with the District Attorney’s Economic Crimes Bureau into the large scale theft of Citibank credit cards and the subsequent use of the credit cards in Queens County and elsewhere. The investigation involved physical surveillance, intelligence gathering and court-authorized electronic eavesdropping on approximately one hundred different telephones and e- mail accounts in which thousands of conversations were intercepted – many of which required translation from Yoruba and Pidgin English to English. Oyibo people are smart and patient. They took 2 full years to gather all their evidence. Some of these men are already servicing their fellow men in prison them go see fire |

Orilee9ice: see now. if them talk say make people reduce the spraying at parties, na so so fight them go dey fight. If I remember correctly, there was a huge war of words on nairaland when someone made a law banning spraying money. Orilee9ice: was this posted on nairaland? anyway, I think its common knowledge that a lot of people who "get rich quick" do so through dubious means. But in a culture that worships money regardless of the source there's little that can be done besides siddon look. |
Re: Largest Nigerian Id Theft Enterprise Busted In New York by Orilee9ice(m): 4:26pm On Jun 26, 2009 |
TIPAH MY BRODA. i disagree make we siddon dey llok, thse are pple who make us who do a decent living both here and in the US look like fools, and letting our mates in 9ja compare us with them, but if you work for your money .u will not be spending it yafun yafun like no 2moro sha!! see how the oyibo pple dey look them since 2007, dey make a fool of themselves, come bust them in 2009,, i just hope that that " Shola" is caught soon he must be in 9ja somehwer or prob in jand, hiding, if anyone knows where he is, fish am out o b4 one time he "kobalises" u, u see now, make the money but cannot spend it in peace, but how can he, the same goes for the others on the run as well, so they know what they did is not good and are now running away, they can run but cannot hide, one day they will be caught, and we shall read it again, |
