God help Nigeria. Guys no longer hide their identities as a yahoo guys. The shocking part i I heard of recent is that some parent now buy laptops for their children and take them to a seemingly successful or cashing out yahoo guy as apprentice!

Does this make sense? We have to be careful to know that not all young men flaunting money is into yahoo. This era we live, we have 12year olds having millions of dollars in their accounts.

I will like to know what "actionable intelligence" led to this arrest.

Or is it the unusual stupid EFCC modus operandi... Arrest them first and look for evidence.

I'm sure if Satoshi Nakamoto was a Nigerian, he would have been displayed for fraud several times(not a bad idea though lol).... But my point is, how many Satoshi Nakamoto has EFCC killed Thier dreams in Nigeria? Let's be careful

They were carried away because they didn't struggle to make the money, if you made your money by waking up and doing something legit you won't be too stupid to throw it into the air because you want to be noticed

What hurts most is that most of these guys are not sensible. They are so prodigal with money & they begin to buzz in your ears when they are broke.

Yahoo boys are so dumb and foolish.


You make illicit money and you will be displaying it unintelligently.

Well, they know they won't be jailed, this ones will soon be released once they are able to pay what EFCC will charge them, infact many of them after being arrested will become friends with EFCC officials and they have certain amounts they remit to EFCC officials on each "cash out".
This will prevent EFCC in their state of residence to go after them.

The menace has eaten so deep that boys as young as 16 years are into fraud.
Infact it is no longer fraud but money ritual.
Parents are not helping matter, how can your child who is not working be using iPhone and wearing latest designers yet you are comfortable with that.
Some parents even encourage their children to go into Yahoo.
Many Yahoo boys have blood on their hands because many of their "clients" have committed suicide after been scammed.
You scammed people of their hard earned money only for you to waste it on expensive wines, impress girls, oppress hard working guys and buy some rag like clothes that they tag "designers".


It is a pity
