The biggest cyber criminals are not Nigerians.

But the western media derives some kind of satisfaction by labeling Nigerians and other Africans as scammers.

Criminality is not tied to any nation, tribe or religion. It’s the universal language of all men of easy virtue.

No matter how long it takes all criminals will come to justice one way or the other.

Nobody said that Nigerians are the biggest criminals.
Nigerian criminals are too noisy and quick to show themselves. If a Nigerian criminal has 1/100th of the money this couple stole, he will be on social media trying to tension others and be forming motivational speaker. But see as this couple jejely dey their own dey enjoy life before they were busted.
Nigeria is a home to most of the stupid criminals out there. Their only saving grace is that the Law enforcement and prosecutors are as ignorant as the criminals.

Notice no picture of the couple is posted. Yet the black man will post his own along with the whites to embarrass himself.

I can buy justice with such amount of money in Nigeria.

Borrowed the president $1B
Bribe all the judiciary system with $1B
Bribe all the law enforcement agencies with $500m
Bribe all the religious house with $400m
Bribe all my neighbours, friends, relatives, enemies with $100m

keep the rest for myself and everyone's happy

This is kinda crime I will commit if I ever consider going into crime and not all these useless 1k, 5k, 10k, 20k dollars crime these useless boys are ;Dranting about


And what exactly is does this line mean? " Justice Department officials said the transactions at the time were valued at $71 billion in Bitcoin, but with the rise in the currency’s value, it is now valued at over $4.5 billion.


Haha grin

Crypto can not be easily traced if you know the know. They tracked the couples I.P to the bitcoin wallet through the internet provider and began to monitor them. They were not smart enough to use a public or scrambled internet. They also failed to keep their fortune (the bitcoins) in a hard wallet like the Ledger Nano. You don't do such transaction on your personal phone or computer. Every phone or computer bought is a potential spy gadget from the government through the manufacturer.




Lmao! People who could commit such crime wouldn’t have tried all that you said there, considering the enormous wealth at their disposal and how they were able to pull it off?


I don’t think any Nigerian scammer has been able to reach the $1bn mark say less what this couple did


The truth is as some have the brain hide ( still as part of human using their brains), some also will have the brain to uncover


That’s how it always is going to be….. you hide from some, but where u go hide am na person still develop am
