EFCC arrests Yahoo boy over $268,000 fraud in Delta

Precious Ojo, nicknamed Obago, a suspected internet fraudster, was apprehended by agents of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission's Benin Zonal Commander in Oghara, Delta State.

Following a petition on his fraudulent actions from a citizen of the United States of America, the 26-year-old was detained.

The petitioner claimed that the suspect conned her out of $268,000.00 by pretending to be Raymond Bush, a worker at the US Treasury.

At his Oghara hotel, the suspect was taken into custody. He admitted to using the supposed proceeds of his crime to build the opulent hotel.

Mobile phones and a Mercedes-Benz with customized license plates were also found on him. The accused person will soon be arraigned in court.
