Odogwu! This guy made husdpuppi look like a kid.

But how do Nigerians pull this type of scam on the greatest country in the world.

With all the AI and anti virus, even their CIA or FBI can't prevent this.

However crime is crime and it’s time to pay.

A United States federal court has sentenced a Nigerian national, Matthew Akande, to eight years in prison for masterminding a cyber fraud scheme that defrauded the U.S. government of more than $1.3 million through fraudulent tax filings

What repercussions do politicians face in this country, for doing wrong with our revenue boost since 1960, such that we are deprived of basic government services and utilities like

-law and order,
-peace,
-water and electricity supply,
-free education for all children,
- free basic healthcare for all residents etc huh

Will karma also restore what they have stolen and destroyed in the last 66 years because we are too lazy to make them accountable, especially the ones we identify with on religious, ethnic and other basis huh

Credit fraud is one of the easiest crimes to persecute abroad because they expect humans to use common sense and not to enrich oneself at the community's disadvantage
However the people who always claim to be "sharp" are easily traced because money MUST always leave a trail either paper or digital
Simple

After he has finished eating beans in the CAN 🚨 or penitentiary, president trump should deport him back to Nigeria.
If it's not for lazyness ,greed and satanic mindset why will you be in the USA , a land of opportunities as long as you work legitimately yet him go put him hand into fraud.
Re: US Court Sentences Nigerian To Eight Years For $1.3 Million Tax Fraud Scheme by Ironfaceman(op): 8:31am On Mar 16
You don't know how much Akande has. Akande was not as loud as hushpuppi. There are fraudsters out there richer than hushpuppi but they are not paparrazi

Re: US Court Sentences Nigerian To Eight Years For $1.3 Million Tax Fraud Scheme by franchasofficia: 8:33am On Mar 16
According to Nigeria's Supreme Court and INEC, so long as this Nigerian scammer Akande refunded back part of this $1.3million he stole in America, he has no more case to answer, in fact it means he never committed any crime and therefore he is qualified to contest any election and to become Governor or President in Nigeria, ire oh shocked

This scam is a very stupid scheme that will always fall back on the perpetrator.

Well, all of them including Osho baba, Reno and almost all politicians in Nigeria are criminals and they deserve to be flogged sad
Re: US Court Sentences Nigerian To Eight Years For $1.3 Million Tax Fraud Scheme by Focusmind: 9:26am On Mar 16
Nigeria would not order you to pay anything.

Go to jail and come out and enjoy your loot or pay something and enter plea bargain

If it is only to go to jail, people would gladly commit financial fraud, dupe banks and government and go to jail, serve their terms and come out to enjoy the proceeds of their frauds.

Re: US Court Sentences Nigerian To Eight Years For $1.3 Million Tax Fraud Scheme by yemre: 12:44pm On Mar 16
Hmmm Nigerian criminals!

Why is it that the pattern of crime and diaspora criminals are always the same. Once a person is arrested for a particular crime, you already know where it's coming from.

Can't people do legit things for survival?
