A viral video has surfaced online showing a list of alleged Nigerian scammers published on a public banner in the UK, with both their names and photos attached.

According to reports, some Nigerians living in the UK printed the banner to create awareness and warn others about fraud. The banner also boldly carried the inscription: “Say No to UK COS Scam.”

In the video, several UK-based Nigerians can be seen reading out the names on the banner and announcing the amounts each individual allegedly scammed from others.

Among those mentioned was a couple, with claims that the wife is a Nollywood actress. The couple was accused of scamming people in the UK through COS, allegedly using the proceeds to open a restaurant in Nigeria. They were also accused of currently planning to flee to Canada. The public, including Nollywood, was urged to take note and be cautious.

The trending video has sparked widespread reactions online, especially on X (formerly known as Twitter).

Watch the video and share your thoughts in the comments.

UK Residents Publish COS Scammers With Names & Photos On Public Banner - Crime - Nairaland

Noted.

Op, the least you could have done was explain the meaning of "COS".

You can't just assume every reader knows what that means.

This is a very shitty and drab reporting.

99% of those on those posters are BiaFur0ans. We all know

They love to use fake names ...falsify identities but their faces will betray them

Let's check the names and see if it is true..



Ok


We have seen it


They won

Na uk or Nigeria, Cos these names.

Where I wan see 40 character.

this is even a conservative list. If people start to talk, this list nor go end.

Nigerians are wicked to themselves home and abroad.Its the same way they are too greedy /desperate to fall for scams

This is very good.

Every society needs to adopt this.

I HATE IT WHEN PEOPLE HIDE EVIL

Counted 28 Nigerians out of 30 persons from the list,, the ones I'm sure got Nigerian names tho

Olomo of Yorkshire there? Same people will be supporting bad governance at home.

I hope oleomo of Derby is on the list. These are all supporters of Obi in diaspora.

A better Nigeria is possible indeed

We need clearer picture, so we can identify them biko

Still not enough

Yoruba lagbaaaaaaaaa
Una dey represent us well

This is very disgusting if it is real. How are people able to continue like this?

Headline should be
A Poster of Yorubas in the U.K
From the South West development program

With high number of SWest in UK prison

They will soon rename UK prison to
Omolulabi Guest House

All of them are yaruba people, fraudsters and skull miners

Na wa, almost all of them are yoruba. That's not good at all. This is bringing a very bad image to omoluabis. They should be found and deported asap

Shame on you. Maybe you did not read well. Continue living in self denial.

90% of them from South West region that pretends to love Nigeria, if they were to be Igbos, Abike Dabiri the tribalist in Diaspora Commission would have published the list herself

So many Nigerians already in the UK were also scammed, who you wan go report to?

After spending so much on Masters degree programs that offered little or no pathway to a skilled worker visa, they had to save or borrow huge sums to pay those scammers who hawked COS.

Some Nigerian pentecostal churches here in the UK are complicit, as on Sundays they allowed some of these COS scammers to come to places of worship to give talks about their "COS packages".
