How Do I Nail This Fraudster/419er ? by silverr(f): 6:57pm On Apr 05, 2018
I am soooo angry.
It appears my friend was swindled of a good sum of money in a fake marriage scam by one Mr Emmanuel Ogbodo who claims to be a high ranking officer at NNPC. They met on his facebook account.
I attached the screenshot of the account,
These are the two numbers he and his crook uses to call: 08166583726 and 08066191245
These are the details of the account she paid money into:
Bank: Zenith
Acct Name: Azubuike Okechukwu
Acct number: 2179217751

How can we nail him?

It appears he goes about targeting well to do single ladies on facebook. He approached my friend and began to tell her about himself and how he has been observing her and feels she is a lucky find. he told her he's an offshore supervisor at NNPC's offshore rig somewhere around bonny island and sent her pictures of himself at work with some teammates. He then said he wants to be straightforward and he wants to marry her. They exchanged phone numbers and they began talking offline. He told her that he was once married before but his wife died during childbirth but the child survived. The child supposedly lives with his mother in Benue state cus his mother was kidnapped from his Lagos Duplex few yrs ago and the village is full of jealous ppl who may harm them. He gave her the number of his mother. She called and indeed a crook with an old woman like voice spoke to her and she also spoke to another crook pretending to be a little girl. The man requested her to call him by 5:30am everyday while he calls late in the night saying that's when he resumes and dismisses from work. He told her that his weak point is that he doesn't have a church he attends when he's on leave. They later agreed that her pastor should rededicate him to Christ on phone. The pastor did and prayed for him and by the next day he started sharing testimonies of how everything the pastor said has started manifesting.
Days later, his so called mother called her and begged her to help her calm her son down that he's angry with her she was curious to kno what happened from the son who told her that he doesn't know how come his atm with his mother got expired and how he's afraid that some crooks have swapped the atm while "trying to help his mother withdraw money from the atm" he couldnt do anything cus he wasn't with his phone. He later agreed to calm down and asked my friend to help them out with the small money (about 50k). My friend sent 25k and this was the beginig of extortions. Meanwhile her pastor told her the day the atm issue happened that something isnt right about that man and he may be a 419. She didn't take it to hrt.

No vex, my schedules are pretty tight.
The next few days after she paid 25k, the guy called and said bokoharam has broken into their place at benue and his mother was injured seriously and has been rushed to the hospital. The hospital staff spoke with my friend and said that if 150k wasn't paid immediately, they will discharge her and her grand daughter. Meanwhile he claimed he has collected permission for emergency leave and was waiting for the helicopter to take him to the airport. 150k paid.
Finally Mr Man got back and said he forgot his phone at the rig in his rush (staff normally have to submit valuable items at check-in) so some protocols he placed on the account aren't allowing him withdraw but he'll sort it out within 1-2days and he was very grateful to my friend. He later sent her pictures of his mum with the fresh wounds and some after pictures with the wounds plastered up. Last straw, they needed to fly the mum out cus she was developing a post surgery infection that could affect her ear, nose and throat. She already had a visa but needed to pay for an air ambulance and one staff to accompany her. the cost was 2.5m. My friend became suspicious here but still decided to help. (what if it was true? or a test lol) 1.5M sentas deposit that when they get to us he should balance them. He came up and said he needed some cash to give the person accompanying them to deposit for hospital bills about 8,000usd.
At this point, the scale fell off her eyes and she opened up to her pastor that he was right. Pastor had to call them and tell them that he's a police officer and they are wanted for fraud by trick. They haven't picked her call since then.
She has deleted everything about them but I managed to get these details and I want it to get to the police. I believe it could help them nail them or track them.
I'm thinking of sending it to the sars social media handle (if there is). Is there a better alternative?

IF not for anything, for the heartbreak they caused this very nice lady. She has not been herself. She even called some family to tell them that someone may come to see them soon cus the guy told her to do so and even spoke with her mum on one occasion to show seriousness. The embarrassment is so much that she can't even tell anybody about the money she lost. Every bad and good belle are now expecting inlaw. They are just too cruel and know how to fish for victims. I hope this is their last.
Any suggestions will help.

Is this a good reason to open a case?
I mean all the info here is what we have left. Account number and phone numbers. No call recordings, no meet-up location, she has also deleted the few messages they exchanged?
My initial motive was giving the police or whatsoever unit that's serious about catching these crooks a heads up. I'm sure we're not the 1st they did this to. Was thinking this information could be the missing link in a puzzle.
For police detectives, maybe later. My friend can't talk to anyone about this. She didn't even know I told the whole story here. I just told here that I am trying to get info on where to send their details to. She's quite respected in her circles, she is telling everyone that she left him cus he isn't the one for her. Just me and her pastor know what happened. So an anonymous tip off is the perfect solution. I already thought of the social media handles of the security forces. But I'm hoping for a more direct link so I can be sure I am reaching the office in charge or that someone who can work with this info will stumble on this thread. Hope you get it

This isn't about being desperate. No one here was being desperate, it's a case of being exploited by trick just that they came from an emotional angle.

It is very funny how people fall for cheap scam like this. Anyway the deed has been done. Catching these peeps is quite simple. Go to police headquater at alagbon. Talk to an officer in the fraud unit. Good you have the account number. U don't even need the phone number. Send some cash into the account. Of course someone will come to pick it up not knowing that the acc has been marked for fraud. There is always an officer at the back of every bank building. Pronto there are caught. Hit me up if your in Lagos. I can direct u
