mrkevwee:
I can't wait to see what Nigerians will say when these pple (hushpuppi and his friends) gets acquitted.

Don't group them into same category. Woodberry and Hush are facing different charges. Woodberry's matter involves wire fraud amongst others, whereas Hush's matter borders on conspiracy to commit money laundering. On paper, Hush stands the better chance. Woodberry's conviction and long jail term is 101% sure.

You see what I mean? Smh.

If not Tinubu, who else? The man behind every events happening in the south east. He’s the reason why all the governors of the south east have nothing to show in terms of achievements. He’s the reason why Igbos thronged the south west daily for means of survival. He is the brain behind e erything that happens to every Igbo person in my he world.

Orji Uzor Kalu did not steal a single kobo as Abia Governor. Tinubu simply made up the allegations to frustrate his 2023 presidential ambition. Even Theodore Orji’s case with EFCC was fabricated by Tinubu, Ochendo did not steal a kobo.

Just shut up. You lowly swine.

Biggie's Ten Crack Commandments...

Rule Number Uno, never let no one know How much dough you hold cause you know The cheddar breed jealousy 'specially If that man f.uc.ked.d up, get yo' ass stuck up.

Crippled Giant indeed. Story of Nigeria. Country wey the whole world don see finish.

Oh, so the poor dude was allegedly involved in a gay entanglement? Well.

Now it makes sense. This kind of murder had all the signs of something intensely personal. Compare it to the crazy fellow who cut his wife into pieces and then drank a belly full of sniper in Lekki a few weeks ago.

I can imagine many graduates are worse off than their serving counterparts. Many private employers don't pay up to N30k/month, and even at that, the salaries aren't paid on schedule.

You're mad. Reinstated because the position of EFCC Chairman is your birthright or your father's property. God punish you there.

If this is correct then this woman is richer than Diezani and Patience combined and is easily a dollar billionaire. How can this be?

dangoteinlaw:
I bet you if this news was about a yahooboy caught the comment would be at page 9 at least. Nigerians don’t want their oppressors caught they just need the result of what their oppressors caught removed. No one dare criticize magu, of all the allegations, his own is worse than hush puppi imagine buying a land worth over 500m and no one is even moved by that. Just test front page now with a 15year old accused arrested and see how everyone with a will get arroused and mastubate all over most especially the “spoil our image association of Nigeria “. Useless citizens!!

Most of those "legit", hypocritical idiots are broke losers who are morbidly envious and cannot bear the fact that their age mates (or juniors) are balling. Test them with even N1k and you will see how they will tell you stories and look for a way to kolombi the money. Awon 'hard working' and 'legit' nincompoops.

Obierika:
They should not grant her bail...it's people like her that make honest people seem lazy

Poverty and failure has eroded your brain and polluted your spirit. What an 'honest' idiot.

Did you read the so-called charge against her? Of course not. Because you are always looking for who to blame for your incurable poverty.

adecz:



Every dirty bush Fulani teenager
has become a kidnapper, their new
trade..


These nonentities, making life
unbearable for civilized people!!

Well said. It's just sad. These smelly, irritating abokki idiots have abandoned their cattle rearing and shoe making vocations to embrace kidnapping, thus making life miserable for law abiding and civilized people.

There has to be a way to eliminate these worthless sub human idiots en masse. We can't continue like this.

However, there are fears that the directive could afford bandits and other criminal gangs the leeway to unleash terror on defenceless citizens.

Whoever wrote this nonsense must be mad. Both the IRT and the so-called SARS, how many bandits and "criminal gangs' have they confronted of late? These useless bastards now devote all their energies on pursuing real and imagined yahoo boys and petty fraudsters, rather than face the real task of fighting violent crime. As we speak, most highways in Nigeria have been taken over by murderous Fulani kidnappers. Where is IRT and SARS to combat these real threats? You wouldn't find them there. They are busy looking for easy and lazy money by chasing after soft target 'yahoo boys' in street corners. Even though their mandate is clearly to fight ONLY robbery and kidnapping.

Idiots.

Bla bla bla. But yet Muslims are still allowed entry, given citizenship, and of course allowed to work in the US and other Western countries in spite of the fact that Muslims perpetrate 99% of global terrorism (which is FAR FAR FAR FAR FAR FAR worse than mere cyber fraud)? What am I not understanding?

Nigerians need to wale up abeg. Face your fucking priorities.

I m convinced that Nigerian women are far more evil than men. I know this for a fact. The kind of wickedness they display towards househelps or minors who aren't their own kids but who are in their care is unbelievable. Same applies whether she is a deaconess, Alfa-ress or even mamalawo. Most of dem be executive winch. Tufiakwa.

PrettyMuchNoOne:
In no particular order:
Layer one - VPN as you said (to encrypt your data).

Layer two - A sensible OS (preferably Linux-based e.g. Kali or even Ubuntu, macOS if you want to be like that) - anything is better than Windows, Android, and Chrome OS.

Layer three - Lots of disposable phone numbers, email addresses and the likes to conceal your identity.

Layer four - Your actual hardware - Computers with USBkill installed to wipe the drive when you’re eventually apprehended, iPhones with the ten-failed-passcode security thing.

Layer five - A specialised mining rig that can function as your Bitcoin wallet, with at least 10 different addresses supplemented by numerous unlinked bank accounts(preferably in multiple countries). Also and avenue for moving the money around those addresses using ACTUAL cash - not through the blockchain.

Layer six - A good browser and e-mail provider. Use only established privacy-focused browser, such as Firefox, if and only if you are sure that your network holes have been properly plugged in.

Layer seven - Remote backups. Only use backup sites that are created by yourself (not even your associates). Avoid iCloud Drive (because even though your iPhone is encrypted, your Drive data isn’t), Google Drive (we all know how Google is nah) and the likes.

Layer seven - Secured communication system - Don’t use mainstream email providers with little or no security, use bitches like ProtonMail (the morons encrypt their mail in servers below freaking solid rock - I think like a mile or so) or any other one that properly encrypts your data that not even them can read it.

Layer eight - Don’t trust America. The best place to get all these VPNs and email stuff is Switzerland. They have the strongest privacy laws in the world. But of course, use your Google Search for your normal dealings so as not to appear suspicious.

Layer eight - In fact, trust no one. After you’ve made your cash, don’t pull a Hushpuppi and start blowing on social media so that you won’t draw attention. And try to assume that everything is bugged. That your friend, he might be an EFCC agent or worse.

And remember, you’ll eventually get caught.
These aren’t fraudster-specific stuff, they’re just some measures that we should all take when handling sensitive info.

There’s a lot more than what I’ve outlined up there - Tor, privacy-centric computers, not clicking random links on websites, moving cash securely, deleting browser history etc. Go and do your own research before becoming a fraudster.

The thing is that if you take your time to secure yourself, they can’t catch you. It’s just like Aech in Ready Player One.

BTW, no I don’t support the practice of stealing people’s money, even because of a shitty government

Lol. This is just for 'academic' purposes. I sometimes wonder if most of you on this forum are geeks or couch potatoes who don't live and socialise widely in this same Nigeria.

There are thousands upon thousands multiplied by many more thousands upon further thousands of yahoo boys actively wreaking havoc and cashing out everyday across Nigeria. From Lagos to Ibadan, to Benin to Asaba, to Owerri, to Port Harcourt... All the way down to Abuja, Kaduna and even Jalingo
Majority of them don't even know let alone follow these safety protocols you mentioned. Yet they remain in business. Many have even advanced to become popular entrepreneurs and politicians... Anyone who knows what's up knows these guys.

The truth is that most of these guys would never and can never be caught. I repeat, MOST OF THESE NIGERIAN FRAUSTERS WOULD NEVER GET CAUGHT UNTIL THEY DIE. Only a minute fraction would ever get caught and scapegoated. It's the way it is.

The FBI would have to double their operational budget, and ignore ALL OTHER more pressing crimes/threats plaguing America to focus on Nigerian cyber criminals alone before they even neutralise not more than 5% of them. It's a meaningless, fruitless and useless undertaking for them, so no need.

All these anonymity protocols may only be useful for cyber criminals operating within the US and other Western countries. If we're talking about Nigeria, my brother forget it. The only way to minimise this thing is to optimise Web security systems to make it harder and harder for fraudsters. But even that wouldn't work, because the social engineering element will last forever and ever. A sucker is born every minute. Mugu no dey finish.

There will always be good and bad. Crime will remain as long as humanity remains.

If e like make he sleep inside mortuary. There's no coming back for this primitive, ugly, repugnant illiterate.

Even the NFIU is headed by a Modibbo Hamman-Tukur. What is all this nonsense for goodness sake?

ZKOSOSO:
I witnessed this incident LIVE yesterday evening.
It was gruesome sight. Happened not too far from Obajana junction in Oken Lokoja highway

Give details na. Some of you just can't type longer than 2 or 3 lines.

These Fulani animals have now focused on the Kogi-Abuja highway as their new headquarters. It's no longer the Kaduna Abuja Expressway.

Hmm.

WhatsApp transcripts? But wait. I thought WhatsApp has "end to end encryption"?

If there's any lesson here, it is simple. Don't Bleep with the US and any organisation within it.

Don't use US search engines, browsers, IM apps, etc. These guys would tender all records to the feds when the chips are down.

Random thought, which position would you rather take between IGP or EFCC Chairman? Which is more 'lucrative' or 'juicy' in the Nigerian context?

MrImole:
What of Abba Kyari, I think he'll make a good chairman.

Abba Kyari is as corrupt as most policemen, but at least he is a good guy. Cool dude.

This turn of events is 'sweeting' my belle no be small.

HazzanTazzan:
So whats incriminating abt the document named whatsapp?

What is the content of the document?

Thia document is enough for efcc to arrest someone as a fraudster ?

Are there other very glaring evidences of fraud?

This efcc is a body that will spoil your image with the media once you refuse to pay them off...

Yes we have seen true fraudsters arrested but not paraded once they pay them off and we have seen innocent and clean guys arrested and paraded by them cos they didnt see a need to pay them off as they didnt commit the crime.

Nigeria is doomed under these leadership and uniform men.

It's made worse by the army of jobless and useless losers on Nairaland and elsewhere who cheer on the EFCC and gloat about every "suspect" paraded, but without asking the kinds of sensible questions you just did.

Just look at the miserable charges levelled against the poor girl. What is incriminating about documents named "WhatsApp" and how did the EFCC establish "intent to defraud"? Dem be winch?

God I hate this country. Incompetent, wicked animals everywhere.

martineverest:
even if they don't torture him..with the advent of quantum computing, discerning Bitcoin passwords will be within seconds

That is only theoretically speaking. As of yet there is no precedence.

Better for him to serve the maximum jail term with his $6.5m in btc intact. Make e die there.

Relinquishing that retirement bounty would be extremely foolish of him.

tillaman:
Damn, he will never release the Btc he will rather do the time and come back to enjoy his stash
The matter just long anyhow

Imagine $6m in btc alone. This woodberry dude na something else.

Very odious idiot, this illiterate called Magu. Serves him right. Prancing around like one demi god.

Dirty thing. Tueh.

Nonsense writeup by an idiot. I thought you had something reasonable to say until you started mouthing Mompha, Hushpuppi bla bla. Those are not the biggest challenges facing the EFCC.

We want to know what happened to Godswill Akpabio's case. Rotimi Amaechi. Bola Tinubu. Etc. The petitions against these political robbers who are responsible for impoverishing millions of Nigerians are gathering dust at the EFCC. Tell us about that as part of your angst against Magu. Not the usual soft targets like yahoo boys.

Amala 3 - 1 Akpu.
