Investigators of the Ibadan Zonal Directorate of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, made a significant breakthrough on Wednesday, as they apprehended sixty-four suspected internet fraudsters in Osun State.
The crackdown targeted Ede, Osun State, where the suspects were allegedly engaging in various fraudulent activities.
According to Dele Oyewale, the Head of Media & Publicity for the EFCC, the arrests followed actionable intelligence gathered by the agency.
Among the items seized during the operation were 18 exotic vehicles, 18 laptops, 112 mobile phones, three PlayStation games, five motorcycles, and a trove of incriminating documents.
These seizures underscore the scale and sophistication of the suspected cybercriminals’ operations.
The EFCC stated that the suspects will face legal proceedings once investigations are concluded.
