Mother And Son Arrested For Doing Yahoo

The Kaduna Zonal Command of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, has arrested one Lucky Ebhogie, his mother, Margaret Sylvester, alongside Richman Kas Godwin, Israel Justin and Precious Iwuji for internet-related fraud.

They were arrested on August 5, 2021 in the Sabo area of Kaduna, Kaduna State following intelligence on their alleged involvement in internet-related fraud activities.

Preliminary investigation revealed that the suspects are mostly involved in impersonation and romance scam; faking the identities of US military personnel on foreign missions to deceive their victims.

Another suspect, Precious Iwuji was discovered to have sold her photographs and Facebook account to internet fraudsters, which they used to ensnare their victims.
