Gen Z in the house, gather around the table let me regale you with tales of the most prolific Nigerian fraudster, Fred Ajudua.

See kids, before yahoo, there was yahoo. Fred was and still remains a legend in this regard. The kind of heist he and his men pulled is so phenomenal. Fred put the ya in yahoo. Imagine that they locked him up in prison and right there in prison, he scammed one of the most brutal army generals Nigeria has ever had. General Bamaiyi. A prisoner scamming another prisoner. Fred scammed Bamaiyi of 8.4 million dollars right there in prison!

Fred is extremely smart and suave. He has the gift of garb. That's why Emmanuel Nwude, another big time fraudster and a former executive director of Union Bank, sought his services. Together, the sold a non existent airport to a Brazilian bank for 242 million dollars over 22 years ago. This was done using just a fax machine. No internet, no mobile phones outside thuraya satellite phone, were in existence then.

Oh! A movie has to be made of this. Fred and Nwude were very elaborate. They invited the Brazilians to London, lodged them in the best hotels, hired limousines to chauffeur them around town, took them to the best clubs and spent money like nothing. That wasn't all.

They invited the Brazilians to Nigeria. Right from the Lagos airport, Fred and Nwude paid just about every person that the Brazilians would come in contact with at the airport. They even hired people to be around the airport to greet Fred and Nwude as extremely wealthy guys. It didn't end there.

NNPC headquarters in Lagos then, was another staging area they used. Nwude, had the Brazilians follow him to the very top floor of the building. He took them to the NNPC boardroom. Paid NNPC staff and hired actors all around the building were greeting Nwude like a boss. The air of confidence Nwude walked into the towers with and the way the paid staff and hired actors showed respect to Nwude, further lulled the Brazilians.

It was right in that NNPC that the Brazilians, thinking they were signing a deal of a lifetime, agreed to transfer 242 million dollars to an escrow account Nwude provided.

Mind you as at then, no Nigerian bank had a capitalisation of 100 million dollars. So that was enough money to bounce the bank.

The Brazilians, excited, went back to their country. When the call to inspect the non existent airport they bought was not forthcoming, that's when they got apprehensive and got the authorities involved.

This singular scam that Fred and Nwude pulled, is the reason why we have EFCC today. Even Obasanjo as president then, could not comprehend this kind of criminality.

Fred never stopped scamming. He enjoys it and does so for fun. He later went on to become a member of the house of reps before his criminal nature caught up with him and he got sent to prison in Nigeria. His son, used to be Davido's lawyer until Davido dropped him.

What about the Brazilian bank he scammed? Well, the bank collapsed and some of its executives commited suicide. Not a kobo of that money was recovered.

Conmen go to any extent to make their mark part with funds. Just imagine all that action packed drama?

Tip to stay ahead of scammers
They say if the deal is too good to be true, then it is false.
If you analyse a deal on suspicion of being a scam and you don't know who is the mark, then it's you.

When found guilty, he should have been compelled to return the money to the victims and then thrown into jail forever.
Capital punishment should be established against yahoo crimes, to stem it's tide in Nigeria.

That is the Great Grandfather of Yahoo in Nigeria.
With his age, by now he may be a grandfather to someone.
What a shameful legacy to leave behind for your children.
I heard he sometimes became a Pastor.
KARMA is catching up with him.

Ishilove:
The man has blood on his hands because people committed suicide over the scam. That blood will haunt him and all those who have profited from his ill gotten wealth, his children included.

The sorry fact that despite his criminality he still managed to become a member of the house reps says a lot about Nigeria as a country. A WHOLE LOT. What a disgrace. In a country like China, Fred would have been sentenced to death a long time ago because this kind of remorseless proclivity for fraud is mind boggling.
