A German court has jailed 12 Nigerians for their roles in an international romance scam and money laundering network. The Munich court sentenced the men, aged between 34 and 55, to prison terms ranging from 3 years and 4 months to 8 and a half years.


Prosecutors said they used fake identities, including posing as US soldiers, to trick victims into online relationships before asking for money to cover fake medical, travel, or customs costs. Most victims were women, elderly people, or people with disabilities.

The stolen money was allegedly channeled through the Nigeria-based of Africa, also known as . The convictions follow a major police operation in April 2024 after years of investigation.

Is there any country in the world that does not have Nigerians in their Prisons?


Sometimes I get confused with the behavior of Nigerians out there, you said our country is corrupt with no jobs and security which is the reason for your Japa, now that you live in a very good country where your dreams will become a reality, why not stay away from crime and criminality, then work hard or do legitimate business, but they still continue to do nonsense that will ruin the image of Nigeria, what exactly is wrong with our people?

They will all rot in jail

Of course. Nothing surprising here.

True. While majority of Nigerians are hardworking we do have a huge population of lazy people among us. You will notice it in the begging culture.

I still can't understand how able-bodied men or women would be so comfortable begging for money, not as one-off but as a way of life. That is laziness and will eventually make crime attractive to them.

They are like the man below. They are carrying on from where he left off.

Romance scam is sign of low IQ. Your mates are doing BEC, vishing and you are doing this strap.

Jail terms too short. They need minimum of 15 years each

What's now the essence of travelling abroad. Set awon we must we pepper them back home

Their sympathizers will soon blame this on President Tinubu or the economy situation of Nigeria.

The truth is that these boys don’t want to work but want to drive G-wagons.

I swear. The begging thing don tire me especially among the female gender. The worse part of it all is than when you decide to help dem with some money, you automatically becomes a prey for constant begging and the day you fail to give them , you become their world enemy number one as if you owe dem your money?

Bro, Nigerians destroyed Nigeria. They blame the politician, but they will be worse if they get into power.
