Internet Fraud: EFCC arrests 12 suspects

As part of efforts to stem the tide of cyber crimes, the Economic and Financial  Crimes Commission,  EFCC, Lagos Zonal office, in the early hours of Friday,  May 11, 2018 arrested over 12 suspected internet fraudsters in the Ikoyi area of Lagos.

The EFCC operatives stormed the popular Club 57 on Awolowo Way, Ikoyi,  where the suspected “yahoo yahoo boys” were rounded up,  following intelligence report.

While some of the suspects abandoned their exotic cars to avoid arrest, some others put up resistance, thereby turning the environment into a war-like zone of sorts.

However, a total 10 cars were recovered from the suspects during raid that lasted about  three hours.

The suspects will soon be charged to court when investigations are concluded.
