Efcc Arrests 2 Undergraduate And Six Others For Internet Fraud by iaamxavier(m): 9:16pm On May 13, 2017
Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has arrested two
undergraduate Internet scammers and six other fraudsters at the
upscale 1004 Housing Estate, Victoria Island, Lagos. One of the
undergraduate, Hope Olusegun, a 25 year-old indigene of Okene, Kogi
State, claims to be a student of Computer Science at the Kuala
Lumpur Metropolitan University, Malaysia. He was arrested by
operatives of EFCC over allegations of fraud and internet scam.
A petition by a concerned group alerted the Commission about the
activities of Olusegun and his co-travelers at the elite 1004 Housing
Estate where the fraudsters engaged in fraudulent activities of
obtaining money by false pretences and forgery.
A search conducted by EFCC operatives at Olusegun' s apartment led
to the recovery of several items such as laptops, iPad phones,
travelling documents, cheque books, flash drives, internet modem, and
three exotic cars - a Mercedes Benz Jeep, One 4Matic Mercedes
Benz Car and a Range Rover Sport SUV. When asked how he came
about the cars, Olusegun said the cars belonged to his sister who he
claimed lives in the United Kingdom.
Operatives of the EFCC also downloaded over 80 implicating
documents from the laptops recovered from Olusegun. However, the
Commission is making effort to track down other members of
Olusegun's syndicate who are currently at large.
Tunde Wasiu Sodiq, another undergraduate and member of another
syndicate with close affinity to Olusegun's gang was also nabbed by
operatives of the EFCC at the Housing Estate. Besides Sodiq, six other
members of the syndicate were equally arrested. They are: Badmus
Akeem O, Ajijola Oluwatosin Emmanuel, Adebesin Olalekan, Raji Resaq
O, Ajibola Adeniyi and Adeboye Lamidi.
Their arrest was sequel to a petition on their notorious activities at
the Housing Estate. Sodiq (23) hails from Lagos and claimed to be an
undergraduate of Brandry University, Malaysia. The leader of the
syndicate, Badmus Akeem, hails from Ayetoro, Ogun State and
attended Oniwaya High School, Agege. He claimed to be a traveler who
does odd jobs wherever he travels. "I decided to move to Malaysia to
further my education while I do "Hot jobs" as well. I just got back a
week ago before the festive period and also produce music and
manage artistes," he claimed. On why he chose to live at the expensive
1004 estate where he and his friends pay N30, 000 daily, he said it
was to avoid the stress that friends and relations could bring to him. "I
didn't stay on the Mainland in Lagos because of stress of friends when
you just get back from abroad."
Sodiq said that the Range Rover Sport car which was recovered
from them belonged to his mother despite the fact that the car
bears his alias, "T.Wizzle" .He stated in his statement that the mother
decided to customize the car plate number after the name of his
first son.
Other items recovered by the Commission include laptops, flash
drives, internet modem, cheque books and a host of others.
They are to be arraigned in court soon.
