The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has arrested one Damilola Fasakin who posed under three different names to scam women on the internet.
The French graduate of Ekiti state university fleeced different unsuspecting victims to the tune of N2 million.
He used three identities: Anthony Miller, Dave Mason and Bright Washington.
The commission spokesman, Wilson
Uwujaren, said in a statement on Friday in Abuja: “At the point of
arrest, EFCC operatives recovered one Dodge Caliber Sxi car with
registration number EKY-145EC and an NYSC clearance/discharge letter.
”Other items recovered from him
are three copies of fake international passport data pages with
different names and pictures, two drivers’ licenses and suspected fake
bank documents,” he said.
Uwujaren also alleged that the
suspect used the fake international passports to collect his loots at
the Moneygram desk with the connivance of bank officials who collected
10 per cent on each transaction.
The commission, he added, got wind of Fasakin’s fraudulent activities through series of intelligence.
He said that the suspect would be arraigned as soon as investigation was completed.
