Most wanted online scammer in Efcc net

With the arrest of the suspected head of an international criminal network behind thousands of online frauds in a joint operation with the INTERPOL, the Economic and Financial Crime Commission (EFCC) said yesterday that it had recorded a major breakthrough.
According to EFCC, a 40-year-old Nigerian national, known as ‘Mike’, is believed to be behind scams totaling more than USD 60 million involving hundreds of victims worldwide.
In one case for instance, EFCC said a target was conned into paying out USD 15.4 million.
“The network compromised e-mail accounts of small and  medium businesses around the world, including in Australia, Canada, India, Malaysia, Romania, South Africa, Thailand and the US. The financial victims were mainly other companies dealing with these compromised accounts.
