Operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission, EFCC, Ibadan Zonal Office, on Tuesday, March 26, 2019
swooped on a location suspected to be a hideout of internet fraudsters
following series of reports from residents of the area on their alleged
fraudulent activities.
The early morning raid on apartments within the Kolapo
Ishola Estate, in Akobo area of Ibadan led to the arrest of six young
men between the ages of 24 and 30 years.
The suspects include: Tella Adefemi Ibrahim, Awoniyi
Adeseye Abiodun, Oladele Olawale Wasiu, Olabiti Afeez Ajibola, Akeredolu
Oluwafemi Temidayo and Oyaremi Olalekan Olabode.
A series of intelligence gathered on them suggested that
they are deeply involved in all manners of fraudulent activities,
including love scam, through which they illegally obtain money from
unsuspecting victims.
At the point of their arrest, EFCC operatives recovered
five different models of exotic cars, laptops, mobile phones and several
documents containing false pretences from the suspects.
They will be charged to court as soon as investigations are completed.
