Senate Passes Bill On Yahoo Boys. by LEERICIST(m): 8:40pm On Oct 24, 2014
OK, here's a special announcement. So this week, the
Nigerian Senate passed a bill which states that any Yahoo
Yahoo person caught will go to jail for seven years or
pay N7million...or both.
Once the bill is passed into law and you're caught
committing cyber crimes, including computer-related
fraud, computer-related forgery, offences relating to
pornography, cyber-stalking and cyber-squatting, you're going to jail. Continue
The bill has passed through second reading and it's
awaiting enactment so it becomes a law. Once it's passed
into law, it will become an offense for anyone to commit
fraud using a computer system or network with the
intention of obtaining computer data, securing access to
any programme, commercial or industrial secrets or
classified information.
It will also be an offense to be in possession of a
manipulative device, unauthorized Automated Teller
Machine, ATM card, damaging a computer with the
intention to defraud, trafficking in any password to
defraud customers or financial institutions
If you're convicted, it's 7 years in prison or a fine of N7
million or both.
If you're convicted for committing any offenses relating
to violation of critical national information infrastructure,
then its 10 years without the option of fine.
15-year-jail term for anyone who commits this crime and
it results in the harm of another individual.
Life imprisonment for anyone who commits this crime
and it leads to the death of another person.
And finally, if you own a cyber cafe and you allow the
fraud to happen in your space, then it's 3-year jail term
or N2 million fine
The Senate is just waiting for the president to
approve...and Gboa!
