EFCC arrested a 21-year-old man on suspicion of fraud involving €17,000.
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) in Benin arrested Irabor Kennedy Osasogie for alleged fraud after receiving a petition from Antje, a German citizen.
The victim complained to the commission, claiming that Osasogie, 21, defrauded her of €17,000.
After being duped out of €68,000 by a man named Michael Patrick, the petitioner met him on social media.
Antje claimed that Osasogie offered to assist her in recovering the funds, but then cheated her out of €17,000.
According to EFCC spokesman Wilson Uwujaren, the suspect stated upon arrest that he only received €12,850.
“The suspect will be charged in court as soon as the investigation is completed,” Uwujaren added.
