Video: B B C Exposed Nigerian Football Conmen by spora1: 2:05pm On Jul 15, 2008 |
An undercover BBC investigation has exposed how young African footballers are being conned out of thousands of dollars by Nigerian fraudsters. They prey on the thousands of amateur players who post their details online hoping to be spotted by English agents. One gang which was confronted pretended to be Manchester United officials working with manager Sir Alex Ferguson. Another conman was impersonating the chief talent scout for Chelsea to trick naive teenagers into wiring him cash. Victims are often duped into sending money in the false belief that they are paying official registration fees to have a trial to play for their favourite English Premier League clubs. The fraudsters simply pocket the money and disappear. Watch the video here http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/7505699.stm For Full Story, Click http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/7505395.stm |
