EFCC nabs Poly Student, two other suspected internet fraudsters

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, on Tuesday, arrested a student of The Polytechnic, Ibadan and two other suspected internet fraudsters.

They were picked up at Ologuneru and Olodo areas of Ibadan, the Oyo State capital after days of surveillance mounted on them to test the veracity of allegations of fraudulent activities and flamboyant life without tangible source of income leveled against them in series of petitions authored by their neighbours.

The internet fraud suspects are Ajaguna Quadri Biola (27years), Nafiu Moshood (23years) and Anuoluwapo James Olasupo (22years).
