The police in Lagos have arrested a gang of criminals whose specialty was fraudulently withdrawing money from the bank accounts of oblivious customers.
Fraudsters Confess To Police In Lagos
The three men were arrested based on a tip-off and they revealed the tricks of their trade
Kola Osho, Oyedepo Adesola and Kola Ademola
The trio were arrested in the Abule Egba area of the state after the police were informed of their suspicious movements. Ademola said:
Last year, I met one boy called Samson who stayed in Obalende, and he was the one who got the cheques and brought them to me. “I don’t know how he got them, but they were original cheques.
We delivered these to the banks insiders who worked on them, and brought out the cash. But because of the present cashless policy, we can only withdraw less than N100,000 which would not require the confirmation from the signatories.
The police are currently investigating the charges against the accused who were also found in possession of a number of forged documents.
