fergie001: The Efcc is fighting Yahoo Boys in a wrong way. I am saying so because the hospitality industry is now affected. The Nigerian economy is also affected. The Efcc should have faced the Yahoo Plus Boys that are killing girls or ladies for ritual sacrifice because this aspect is very evil. Infact, the yahoo plus boys should be hanged or executed by firing squad for killing humans for ritual purposes. They should have left the conventional YAHOO BOYS that are bringing foreign exchange into the country. These guys do not do ritual even though most of them are engaged in scam, fraud. Some of this yahoo boys are internet beggars going online to beg white ladies for money. They are not fraudsters in the real sense of the words. Some of this ladies in the dating sites are even lonely and they happily send money to this boys for chating with them online. The money that is brought in by the Yahoo boys helps to pay the salaries of the BARTENDERS, HOUSEKEEPERS, CHEFS, COOKS, ETC Landlord and Landlady also benefit from the SOCALLED DIRTY MONEY. I am against the manner the federal government is using EFCC to pursue fraudulent activity. The Efcc is fighting fraud in the wrong way to the extent that it is now destroying our strategic interest. BRITAIN, CANADA, IRELAND, USA, NETHERLAND (HOLLAND ) GERMANY, CHINA, JAPAN, AUSTRALIA, TURKEY ETC DID NOT RAISE ANY COMPLAINT TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. Why is the federal government so determine to fight internet fraud while leaving the ECONOMY so badly battered. If they want to solve the problem of the YAHOO BOYS they should strategically engaged with this boys in such a way that they should be encouraged to stop fraud and then use their illgotten wealth to invest in businesses that benefits the economy of Nigeria. The Ghanaians do not fight fraud the way Buhari is fighting fraud in Nigeria. EVEN BLOGGERS, FREELANCERS, FOREX TRADERS, ARTIST IN NIGERIA ARE NOW A SUSPECT ESPECIALLY IF THEY ARE SEEN WITH A LAPTOP. Efcc now are fully engaged with pursuing yahoo boys leaving the corrupt government politicians to smile home with our looted COMMONWEALTH. Efcc is using SLEDGEHAMMER to conquer the YAHOO BOYS forgetting that the UNITED KINGDOM OF GREAT BRITAIN AND NORTHERN IRELAND survives to some extent on DIRTY MONEY. One can ask Britain what they are still doing with Abacha loot in Channel Island, Ibori loot in London. It is because the UK as clean as they claims still needs DIRTY MONEY to grow their economy but on the surface they pretends to be above board. 10 Likes 1 Share |

Nigeria under Buhari is just useless and a toy to the outside world, that’s why small South Africans are killing Nigerians daily 1 Like |

Barryseal: Are you saying that in Britain, Ghana etc there are no fraudsters there? But you do not see their prime minister, or president using Efcc or police to disgrace their youth before the international community. They parade this Nigeria youth with placard and all that? Which advance country has done that to their youth? ABOKI NO GET SENSE AT ALL? The federal government should engaged with the youth and find solutions to the cause of fraud in Nigeria which everybody know is primarily from unemployment. Even the British, Americans are into fraud but in the case of the efcc they use this their new found past time to PLAY TO THE GALLERY. EFCC IS NOW USING THIS TO SHOW THAT THEY ARE WORKING. If they are picking politicians it is those from the opposition. NIGERIA GET BIG PROBLEM. 1 Like |

Nigeria has never been this bad and yet there is no excuse for being a cyber criminal. I mean a thief is a thief anytime,any day. Even if the economy is bad to the teeth, u can justify it being a criminal. Ours isn't as worst as Venezuela,Zimbabwe and even Mexico yet, we have the worst human made crimes on earth,usually caused by greed and satanistic material wants of more to one-self which is the country we found ourselves. For everyone u dupe out there,be it a white man or a black man, there is a consequence before God and Man. There is a generational curse for taking what belongs to another falsely. |

[quote ![]() Days after the Economic Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, vowed to fish out Nigerians indicted in the recent United States wire scam, Saturday Sun has learnt that most of the young men with questionable source of living are currently on the run. While many have gone underground, those with the means have fled to some West African nations and even beyond the sub-region to evade arrest. On August 22 , a 252-count federal grand jury indictment charged 77 Nigerians for alleged involvement in a massive conspiracy to steal millions of dollars through a variety of fraud schemes and launder same through a Los Angeles-based money laundering network uncovered by the FBI. The indictment alleges that the defendants and others used various online fraud schemes – including business email compromise (BEC) frauds, romance scams, and schemes targeting the elderly – to defraud victims out of millions of dollars. While two defendants were already in federal custody on other charges, a few others were arrested last week, with the remaining suspects believed to be abroad, most of them located in Nigeria. The Nigerian government has however promised to assist FBI in extraditing those indicted. Saturday Sun gathered that several big-time ‘Yahoo boys’ operating in Nigeria have since fled the country for fear that the FBI-backed EFCC investigation might affect them. They were said to have moved to neighbouring West African countries, especially Ghana and Gambia. Others are in South Africa while those who still have clean records have chosen to stay in Dubai till further notice. Celebrity nightclubs worst hit Worst hit by the decision of the ‘Yahoo boys’ to go underground are some of the celebrity night clubs in Lagos, Abuja and Owerri in Imo State which are usually filled with young men ready to spend millions in a night. These are safe havens for some of these fraudsters who are willing to spend more than a million naira on a bottle of wine. Lamenting the low patronage, an attendant in a top nightclub in Victoria Island who spoke with Saturday Sun lamented that sales has fallen since the FBI-EFCC manhunt began last week. “Before the news broke, we used to make at least N5million every Friday night. Last Friday was the worst since this club was established. We could barely make up to N500, 000. There is panic everywhere; we need these Yahoo boys who spend money carelessly. The same thing happened to our club in Owerri, everyone has gone into hiding. It’s even worse over there because majority of our customers are visitors who stormed Owerri for the weekend.” Why we have gone underground One of the suspected fraudsters popularly known as Big Daddy who insists that he has since retired told Saturday Sun that he decided to run to Dubai in case someone mistakenly mentioned his name. “It’s Obiwanne Okeke’s fault that things went bad for everybody. As soon as they caught him, he started running his mouth and he overdid it. What others were doing is to allow them to investigate your matter and then the rest will help you from outside. They would have contributed money and hire the best lawyer that will help free him or at worst reduce his sentence. So many of us now stuck in Nigeria have been arrested before and endured it till we were deported. Your resources will be protected. The truth is that America cannot jail you if they do not have concrete evidence against you and most importantly the quality of the lawyer that is helping out is very important. With the current situation that guys are in over there, no one is willing to help.” On why he fled the country, Big Daddy said, “I was not involved in any of the issues they raised but I am an Imo boy and I know so many of them. We have done deals in the past and anything can happen. These boys out of desperation can mention anyone’s name. It’s better to stay away and monitor things from afar. I have a clean record that is why I decided to go to Dubai.” An ex-convict, Okechukwu Madu who was recently deported to Nigeria after serving five years jail term in UK over internet fraud said that EFCC will take advantage of the FBI alert to arrest small-time players. “In Nigeria, if you know your game, EFCC will not arrest you. We have gotten information on the people that they are looking for and most of them are out already. If you hear that they caught anyone, it must be these small-time players. The big boys are the investors and most of them are spread across African countries; all they need is a computer and link to their accomplices. “I am not afraid because I have served my term in UK before they deported me. Some of us were lucky that we invested in the country, which is why despite all the money that they took from us, we can still survive in this country. In fact, Nigerian government should be happy that we bring this money back to Nigeria, unlike some of them who prefer to buy houses and deposit our money in foreign countries. This matter will surely end one day, the secret is to try not to be caught.” Another suspected fraudster based in Kenya, Cosmos Gee lamented that since the news broke last week, some of his friends have been unreachable. “My brother who stays in Germany told me that they are actually hiding, the town is hot for them. There is also panic in other African countries like Kenya, this is because some of these Nigerian men travelled with Kenyan passport. Kenyan government is not strict on Nigerians who come over there and seek to become citizens of the country.” We’re on their trail – EFCC Reacting to the development, a top official of EFCC said, “We’re on their trail. We’ve increased surveillance at all the country’s borders and have enlisted Interpol’s service. We will get these fraudsters and Yahoo boys because we have deployed different technologies. Abuja and Lagos are under heavy surveillance. “We’re also in the South South because we believe anywhere you have higher institutions is a natural hub for Yahoo business. We’ve spread dragnets everywhere. The entire country is under surveillance. Raids are coming, but they would be covert. If they like, they should run to anywhere in the world, in due course, we will get them.” Also speaking, EFCC spokesman, Wilson Uwujaren said, “the Commission is not aware of any escape of suspected fraudsters from the country. The EFCC more than ever before is resolute in its determination to wipe out all vestiges of scam, be they advance fee fraud or cyber crime. The Commission has the capacity to track and smoke out any Internet fraudster within Nigeria’s borders. We also have partnerships with international law enforcement organisations including the Interpol. Escape from Nigeria is no guarantee of freedom from justice.” A suspected internet fraudster wanted by the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) was recently arrested by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and paraded in Ilorin, the Kwara State capital. Sharu Isyaku, EFCC zonal head in Kwara, told reporters “the 36 years old suspect had benefitted about N60 million from the loot via Western Union transfer.” He said: “Just last three weeks, the US authority had written to us for assistance in tracking and possible arrest and prosecution of two most wanted FBI suspects in Nigeria. The commission accedes to their request. The commission has been supportive of the activities of the FBI and every other foreign counterpart whose responsibility is similar or analogous to ours. ” He further revealed that the commission had traced four properties linked to some cybercrime suspects in choice areas to Ado-Ekiti, Ekiti State. The properties include a supermarket and plaza put in the region of between N800 million to one billion Naira. “Within seven months of our operation, the Ilorin zonal office has independently arrested over 58 suspected internet fraudsters, secured conviction of 25 and got forfeiture of their exotic cars and money running into millions of Naira to the Federal Government,” he said. https://www.sunnewsonline.com/fbi-wanted-list-yahoo-boys-flee-nigeria-to-dubai-ghana-gambia-safrica/ [/quote] |
