A masters degree holder, Aminu Ahmed Yerima, has been arrested by operatives of the Inspector General of Police Special Intelligence Response Team, IRT, for defrauding over 50 persons on Facebook, pretending to be an aide to former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, who is presently the Presidential Candidate of the People’s Democratic Party.

Yerima, who is also a native of Jada Local Government Area of Adamawa State, where the former Vice President, hails from, had fleeced his unsuspecting victims of large sums of money, running into millions of naira. He was said to have ran into trouble when two of his female victims wrote a petition against him to the Inspector General of Police, Ibrahim Idris, detailing how he defrauded them of the sum of N5million within the space of six months.

Police sources disclosed that after the IGP approved the petitions, he directed his men at IRT, headed by Deputy Commissioner of Police, Abba Kyari, to investigate and bring the perpetrator to book. Yerima, was said to have been traced through information he provided on his Facebook and Kano State, where he was arrested.

The police sources explained that Yerima, created a Facebook account using pictures of himself and the former Vice President, in Mecca, Saudi Arabia and several other locations. He also identified himself on his facebook wall as the personal aide to the former vice president.

So this madness still exist?

I honestly do not, and will not sympathize with anybody defrauded on social media.
It is the price you pay for being foolish.

Scam is only successful when the victim is greedy.

Are people this gullible? Thank God he met his Waterloo.

Taking advantage of Atiku's popularity

Obviously one of NL BMC

Do people from there also do yahoo-yahoo?

I'm surprised o,
I really need to change my impression of folks in the North.
In my warped mind, I find it hard to even believe they can operate a smart phone let alone to own social media accounts.

Kudos to the police.

Somebody that don't believe God will now be saying it is the handiwork of Satan.

Well

Do people still fall for this type of cheap scam?
Anyway, greedy people always do!
