## EFCC Arrests Nigerian Man for N3m (USD$11,119.00) Fraud

The Abuja Zonal Office of the Nigerian Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, on May 3, 2019, arraigned one Dan Musa Yakubu before Justice Hajiya Asmau of a Federal Capital Territory, FCT High Court, Lugbe on a one-count for offenses bordering on obtaining by false pretense to the tune of N3 million.

Yakubu was arrested after the EFCC acted on a petition alleging that he received the said sum from his victim as payment for the supply of gold and household items, but defaulted. He, however, failed to refund the money.

## **NOTE: THAT THEY ACTED ON A COMPLAINT RECEIVED FROM A SCAM VICTIM**

He plead "not guilty" to the charge.

Justice Asmau has adjourned the matter to May 28, 2019, for hearing, and ordered the remand of the defendant in EFCC custody.

## FAQ: How Do You Properly Report Scammers?

It is essential that law enforcement knows about scams & scammers, even though there is nothing (in most cases) that they can do.

**Always report scams involving money lost or where you received money to:**

1. **Local Police** - ask them to take an "informational" police report - say you need it for your insurance
2. Your **National Police or FBI** ([www.IC3.gov](http://www.IC3.gov) »)
3. The **SCARS|CDN™ Cybercriminal Data Network - Worldwide Reporting Network** [HERE](https://www.romancescamsnow.com/how-to-report-scammers-fraudsters/) » or on [www.Anyscam.com](http://www.Anyscam.com) »

This helps your government understand the problem, and allows law enforcement to add scammers on watch lists worldwide.
