A graduate of Ladoke Akintola University of Technology, Ogbomosho,
Oyo State, Babatunde Fatai, who is about to begin the mandatory national
youth service programme, said he posed as a genuine lover to defraud
foreign women and men whom he met on dating sites.
Fatai, who has been arrested by the Oyo State Police command for various
Internet crimes, including hacking into bank accounts of many people in
and outside Nigeria, had once been arrested for
robbery and arraigned in court but granted bail.
Punch Metro
reports that he was arrested with the sum of N2.4m by men of the
command’s Special Anti-Robbery Squad in his Ogbomosho hideout. Also in
his possession were: a Honda CRV with number plate KWL 280 CN, a Nissan
Altima car with number plate KJA 963 CA, a Ford saloon car with number
plate KRD 837 DQ and a Toyota Camry saloon car with number plate LSR 418
DJ.
Fatai said he had been in the Internet fraud business for a long time
but could not remember how much he had fraudulently collected from his
victims. He said:
”It is not easy to do Internet fraud. It takes painstaking effort.
At times, I would go to dating sites to woo
both men and women. I would make sure they fall in love with me by
regularly sending love and romantic messages and even calling them until
I deceived them into giving me their account details.
At times, I would send fake emails to bank
customers making it look like it emanated from their banks. Then I would
ask them to change their password, PIN or other bank account security
details.
They would be required to input the old and
new, but as soon as I get the old password, I would use it to hack into
their accounts, transfer the money to the person I’m dating abroad, who
would later send it to me through another means,” he explained.
