EFCC Arrest 21-Year-old for Alleged €17,000 Fraud

EFCC operatives of the Benin Zonal Command have arrested one Irabor Kennedy Osasogie for alleged fraud.

The 21-years old was arrested recently by the Economic and Financial Crime Commission following a petition by one Antje, a German citizen, complaining that the suspect defrauded her of €17,000.

The petitioner claimed that she met Osasogie through social media after she was defrauded of €68,000 by one Michael Patrick.

She alleged that Osasogie offered to assist her in recovering the money but further defrauded her of €17,000.

Upon arrest, the suspect claimed he only received €12,850 from the petitioner.

The suspect will be charged to court as soon as the investigation is concluded.
