crackhouse: abeg leave those people that are always quick to condemning this country. It's very clear Nigerians are not the brain behind it, even if they were part of it.
cyril83: Read the article very well before answerig and u guyz shud stop berating and nailing nigeria,fraud is everywia besides how did tracy and her mother got the money? They fraud some pple and some dude outsmart them....they themselves are thieves and greedy fraudster...I see no reason why u guyz shud be saying trash abt naija,dia's ongoin scam in di Uk,US dudes are not left out,australia,germany sti counting
engineerd:

You can rightly infer that the Nigerians were the pimps! they are using the Magas now to make Magas out of other Magas do u get it
ekt_bear: Hrm.



So what exactly was the Nigerian role in this?
colly227: Can anyone show me where it is written that the associates in Nigeria are Nigerians or you guys mean to tell me there are no USA citizens in Nigeria that could be the associate? Please let's not be in a haste to condemn this country no matter how bad we look.
ekt_bear: Hrm.



So what exactly was the Nigerian role in this?

It seems u guys don't know how internet fraud now operate in nigeria. There are different types of internet fraud now. Each year.. New styles come up.
Have u ever walked into a cybercafe in nigeria and what u see is a young kid running a facebook page of a white or black handsome american soldier? They usually get pics from d internet and then open a facebook address with it. They use a foreign name, address and they claim to be serving in other parts of d world.. Some desperate women out there looking for partners easily fall for these people.. Just in d name of dating and marriage. Sooner or later d so called soldiers would start demanding for money from their unsuspecting victims.
I believe the 2 women arrested were acting as the sister or mother. The fraudster may tell d victims he needs to send some money to his sister or mum in US but since he is on d war front, he cant do that. He wouldn't have used nigeria as his base cos that wld spoil d whole runs.

Am sure one of d 2 women must have been gotten from an online datings sites as well, and they must have developed a mutual friendship before they introduce them to the deal.
D biz is based on percentage, the women receive d money in US, and then remit d other percentage to nigeria.
This is d latest yahoo in town, just try and visit any cybercafe and u wil understand what am saying. I wish the nigerians could be traced as well. These are d boys u see in clubs buying 12 bottles of champagne, lodging in big hotels for months and living large. Its so sad when someone working so hard in nigeria see this kind of stuff, this is how some ppl also start to defraud others, when they are being oppressed by small boys.

When our leaders have shown us that fraud and corruption pay.. And u cld walk away with it. Would u then blame these boys that don't have jobs after graduating?
If most of these boys cld have trustworthy partners like d women in US. Am afraid there wld have been more young yahoo millionaires in nigeria now. Its high time efcc clamped down on these yahoo boys.. They shld start visiting cybercafe to fish them out.

some 9ja peeps are simply naive, they should rather be thankful and glad that there's yahoo yahoo boys to repatriate some of our looted money back to 9ja, if not everybody would have turned armed robber, kidnapper, bokoharamist, and the roads and streets would have been no go area. everybody will stay indoors as if there's war.

whenever u peeps condemned yahoo yahoo, just remember your leaders loot more and steal you blindly, while yahoo yahoo help to alleviate the rate of poverty in 9ja. i know u rather yahoo yahoo turn armed robber and rob ur ass dry or bokoharam and blow ur ass off.

do u know how much the west steal from 9ja, i just read of french ship stealing oil, there's many which are unreported and nobody is talking.

if yahoo yahoo go hell, at least even you so called pastors and MOG, Imams and leaders will be there too. Bleep offs.

let me tell you further, if the reverse is the case and 9ja ppl are drug addicts, i tell u the west will be shipping containers of cocaine to 9ja per hour and nobody will do a shit. Bleep the west, they are the corruption in 9ja. i wish i can scam all of them and get all the money back...Bleep peeps

and for u peeps instead of efcc clamping down on those looting 9ja dry, u want them to start chasing after yahoo yahoo boys, well, it's the usual way of 9ja, leaving burning house to chase after rats...

u peeps shld 1st start talking how to stop the looting in the nation and to start building the nation....yahoo yahoo shld not be the problem... in as much as i condemned it, i also know it have helped the 9jarian society and helped many family and it's better than armed robbery which u peeps prefers as i see it

Most people here lack ability to comprehend.
The nigerians are the real fraudsters and they recruited the american citizens to receive money from the victims, since the victims chat with nigerians and call the americans and verify their authenticity hoping they are the same person, they feel comfortable sending money to the americans and those ones according to the article forward it to nigeria and they take percentage of the transaction. Abi na dem d oyinbo's nigerian bank account d oyinbo dey send d money too?
It stated that the do it on commission, because they didn't mention the nigerians should be obvious that they were not apprehended so there can't be case on somene that is not present.

Hoodrat: Those women were been used by Nigerians scam artist in order to built trust between their mugus the women are greedy and gullible themselves for voluntarily agreeing to operate a large scale Nigeria scam network. In some cases the women might be innocent and unaware of such but this one shows a different turned for is obvious the women were in for percentage. A friend of mine says a good Nigerian is a dead one grin grin grin cry
Re: US Mother & Daughter Accused Of Nigerian Internet Dating Scam by Nobody: 9:47am On Jun 25, 2012
You people keep saying the money was wired to Nigeria, what gives you the impression that was wired to a Nigerian, A Nigerian scam artist will never have his/her share wired directly to Nigeria wld rather prefer an intermediary from China or Malaysia.

So, their partner could as well be an American operating scam from Nigeria.

There are lot of foreign criminal living in this country' with no record. They should stop attaching every scam to Nigerians.

So what? We should all start glorifying bunch of thieves because there are alot of criminals out there?

Just listen to yourself. .yahoo yahoo has helped so much families?. . Oh yes! armed robbers have helped a lot of families, politicians who stole from Nigeria used it to help their families and friends, kidnappers used the ransom money to help their families.

So thanks be to God! we have found a solution to unemployment and corruption in Nigeria.

PIGS like you are one of the reasons why nigeria will continue to go down and burn to ashes,and why the Igbos must do whatever it takes to have their own country instead of being in the same country with your likes. Keep shouting Igbo while ignoring that the word YAHOO YAHOO Yoruba is a bad disease which some people would rather have than to be a trader in auto spare parts,and a little research won't be disappointing in revealing the tribe in nigeria that are bloody YAHOO YAHOO INTERNET SCAMMERS by nature and identity thieving or faking of documents to decieve and defraud people.

This actually shows how much of a dumb skull you are. It's called "Nigerian Internet Dating Scam" because It evolved from Nigeria that doesn't mean anyone that practice it is a Nigerian. The article never said Nigerian associates it say associates in Nigeria. Please never skip English classes.
