EFCC Arrest Two For Fraudulent SMS In Edo by olokfor: 12:08pm On Jul 11, 2016
The EFCCon has arraigned the duo of James Edwin Ehiaghe and Aimienmwona Osahon before Justice O.O Tokode of the Federal High Court Benin, Edo State on four counts bordering on ATM fraud, forgery, Impersonation, conspiracy and obtaining money by false pretences; possession of scam documents contrary to section 1, 2 and 6 of the Advance Fee Fraud and Other Related Offences Act, 2006. Ehiaghe and Osahon are alleged to belong to a syndicate of fraudsters who specialize in defrauding their victims through text messages.

They were separately charged with two counts each by the Commission. According to the complainant, on 18th January 2016, she received an SMS on her MTN line purported to have emanated from Central Bank of Nigeria’s Customer Care Department, claiming that her ATM Card will be deactivated unless she called the ‘CBN Customer Care Phone Number 01342233’ to update her bank details. Operatives of the commission found various incriminating items including a laptop containing some scam documents, various fake driver’s licenses, internet modems and ATM cards of different banks, in a search conducted on the suspects.
