The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has launched a nationwide manhunt for a woman believed to be in her 20s, Tofunmi Akinade, who is alleged to be a serial Automated Teller Machine fraudster and identity thief.

The EFCC said on its official Facebook page that the suspect recently stole the ATM card of a woman and stole over N1m from the account.
The commission said Akinade’s modus operandi was to stand near ATMs under the guise of helping old or physically-challenged people to withdraw money only for her to swap their ATM cards and convert them to her own use.
The anti-graft agency said the suspect “does not work during the official hours of the week”, adding that she operated late in the night when all bank transactions had closed and preferably at weekends when her prospective victims might not be able to alert the banks to their missing ATM cards.
The anti-graft agency said, “The Ibadan zonal office of the EFCC is on the trail of a suspected ATM fraudster, who goes by the name Akinade Tofunmi. Her trade in stock is identity theft. Her duty post is any ATM point and Point of Sales (POS) machines across the country.
“In her last operation, within 24 hours, this fraudster who operates with the identity of her victims succeeded in racking in about N3m.
“On Friday, June 3, 2016, at about the close of work, a woman, identified simply as Alhaja and her husband, who was waiting in the car, wanted to use an ATM somewhere in Ibadan, Oyo State, when Tofunmi noticed that the woman limped.
“Pretending to be polite and cultured, she offered to assist her with the transaction on the ATM. Unaware of the intention behind the pious approach, she gave the fraudster her ATM card and divulged her PIN.
