Court Jails 15 Chinese For Cybercrime In Lagos by Ironfaceman(op): 5:24am On Jul 18, 2025
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has secured the conviction of 15 Chinese nationals for cyberterrorism and internet fraud in Lagos.

According to a statement by the EFCC, the suspects were sentenced by two Federal High Court judges, Justice Ayokunle Faji and Justice Dehinde Dipeolu, sitting in Ikoyi.

The convicted persons include Ling Yang, Xiao Hong Will, Wang Zheng Ming, Wang Jia Qi, Yang Sheng, Peng Sen Lin, Guo Xiao Fei, Chen An Shun, Zhao Ying Bin, Yu Zi (aka Wei Xue Huan), Zhang Yang, Wang Zhi Cheng, and Lu Yubo.

The EFCC said the men were arraigned on separate charges related to cybercrime and internet fraud.

This latest judgment comes just weeks after 14 other Chinese nationals were sentenced for similar offences in Nigeria.

These guys will walk free again that is Nigeria for you. The real upside down country.

No immigration policy no security. The people will enlarge Nigeria's profile for cyber crimes not knowing they are foreigners.

A lot more foreigners perpetrate cybercrimes but some Nigerians make it seem as we are the only culprits. I'm quite sure a lot of the crimes Nigerians are accused of were actually committed by foreigners simply because we have let a bad name stick.
Re: Court Jails 15 Chinese For Cybercrime In Lagos by Jughead29: 6:09am On Jul 18, 2025
They are the one recruiting the youth into cyber crime

Some are also recruiting into terrorism.

Just because we are all living exremly below poverty line

President is not talking about how to make people to live a standard life. All this will continue

They all knows the truth but hiding it, including all presidential candidates.

The big cybercrime countries are China and India. There their scammers are so sophisticated that they even run the scams out of professional looking offices, located in highbrow areas. Nigeria never even come close.

The info seems incomplete. Regular news on such carries the length of the sentence. Also if a fine substitute was made available or not.

You sound so sure. So full of negativities about Nigeria. Please change this, even if that is the only thing you can contribute, it would go a long way. Nigeria will be great.

I was reading a news article sometime ago where, in India, some Zimbabwean men were caught selling drugs. They told the police that they were Nigerians.
