Operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) have arrested seven suspected internet fraudsters during a sting operation carried out in the Life Camp and Kubwa areas of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Abuja.
The arrest, which took place on Thursday, June 19, followed actionable intelligence linking the suspects to a series of alleged cybercrime activities.
In a statement issued by the Commission, the EFCC disclosed that several items were recovered from the suspects during the operation.
The items recovered included eight luxury vehicles, high-end laptops, and sophisticated mobile phones, believed to be tools used in the execution of fraudulent online schemes.
