上一次抓捕的还没开庭，这几天又抓到几个。尼日利亚收网杀猪盘电诈窝点，逮捕近千人，其中包括148个中国人。
经济和金融犯罪委员会（EFCC）向本地媒体披露了中国人民如何招募本地和精通计算机的尼日利亚人来诈骗英国等地的受害者。
每个国家的法律不一样，我们叫刷好评，在尼日利亚确实犯罪，2025 年 1 月 9 日EFCC破获了一个专门针对英国人的的酒店评论（刷好评获得佣金）展开的诈骗行为。在阿布贾古杜阿布图加尔巴街的纳卡大厅广场逮捕了 105 名嫌疑人，其中包括 4 名中国公民和 101 名尼日利亚人。
EFCC媒体主任说，刷票好评是一个全球性的互联网诈骗，最近才出现在尼日利亚地区，他们通常招募精通电脑的本地人，用预先准备好的模版去评论。以获得外国人（英国人）的信任，建立沟通和讲故事。
但事实上，并不是刷好评犯罪，而是利用刷好评来进行另一个诈骗。他们会让对方参与酒店评级，并承诺每个有效评价将获得5美元的报酬。当进行第一次有效评价后，通常会鼓励他们去评价更多的的酒店，并把评价的报酬增加到10美元。
这还没开始诈骗， 所谓放长线钓大鱼呀。经过一段时间，诈骗团伙会告诉参与酒店评价的人说，由于信用很好升级VIP级别，可以预定500美金的酒店并获得高额返佣，以他们的名字存放在加密钱包，当完成预定，他们的钱就被划走了。这个套路其实就是远程盗刷信用卡呀！
早知道，推荐英国人都下载一个反诈APP了，哈哈哈 ！
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has offered an insight into how Chinese nationals are recruiting local and computer-savvy Nigerians to defraud mostly United Kingdom victims.
The explanation comes just after the commission’s operatives, acting on intelligence about emerging internet crimes involving foreigners, on Thursday, January 9, 2025, broke another syndicate of fraudsters specializing in a hotel review job scam targeting mostly United Kingdom victims.
The operatives arrested 105 suspects, comprising four Chinese nationals and 101 Nigerians, at Naka Hall Plaza in Abutu Garba Street, Gudu, Abuja, and recovered 100 compact Work Stations from the suspects.
Speaking on Friday in Abuja at a press conference, EFCC Director of Public Affairs Wilson Uwujaren explained that the hotel review job scam is a globally entrenched internet-related fraud that has recently appeared in the Nigerian space.
He said: “The modus operandi involves Chinese nationals who usually recruit local and computer-savvy Nigerians as Customer Service Representatives.
“The Representatives are made to work on a prepared template of criminality online. They are given identities and names, usually foreign, through which they chat with expatriates.
“The crime involves making false representations to victims to win their trust and engage in hotel ratings with promises of $5 for every hotel that is reviewed.
“As the victims get paid, they are encouraged to review more hotels, and the payment is increased to $10 per rating.
“After a long while, the victim is encouraged to make bookings in any of the rated hotels for as much as $500, with the company promising to pay back with chunky interest into a crypto wallet bearing their names.
“After making bookings, the victim would not be able to open the wallet, and their money is lost.
“The fraud is an intricate mechanism of defrauding foreigners, and it is targeted at victims in Europe and other parts of the world.”
Uwujaren disclosed that the EFCC is working with other law enforcement agencies across the world to dig deeper into the global dimensions involved in this crime.
He noted that the EFCC achieved the latest breakthrough barely a month after 792 suspected investment and internet fraudsters were arrested by operatives of the Commission on Tuesday, December 10, 2024.
According to him, they were arrested at an edifice known as Big Leaf Building at No. 7, Oyin Jolayemi Street, Victoria Island, Lagos, adding that the investigation is almost concluded, and the suspects will be charged to court in the coming days.
