The Delta State Police Command has exposed an internet fraud academy that lured over 100 teenagers with promises of training in Bitcoin and forex trading.

This shocking revelation came after soldiers from the 3rd Battalion of the Nigerian Army arrested the suspects at an estate in Warri.

The Arrest of Over 100 Suspected Fraudsters

On Wednesday, the Public Relations Officer of the Delta State Police Command, Bright Edafe, narrated the disturbing story on his X page.

He explained that the teenagers arrived at the so-called academy, only to discover that they were trapped in a notorious cybercrime ring known as “Hustling Kingdom.”

The school, disguised as a training centre, was actively engaged in cybercrime activities, leading to the arrest of 123 suspects by the Nigerian Army.

How the Fraud Academy Was Exposed

According to Edafe, the arrest followed after one of the trapped teenagers managed to contact a family member through a laptop provided by the academy operators.

The family immediately alerted the military, which led to the swift arrest of the suspects, most of whom were between the ages of 17 and 20.

Edafe stated that the suspects were promised opportunities to learn Bitcoin trading and forex but were instead coerced into joining a cybercrime network.

The Modus Operandi of the Fraud Academy

Edafe further revealed that the fraudsters’ strategy involved agents flaunting fake wealth on social media platforms.

These agents convinced unsuspecting young boys from places like Kaduna, Akwa Ibom, and Ibadan to join the fraudulent scheme, promising them lucrative trading opportunities.

Once lured into the estate, the teenagers were physically abused and only fed when the operators felt like it, according to Edafe’s statement.

Continued Investigations by Authorities

Efforts to confirm whether the operators of the academy had been arrested remained inconclusive.

The police and military authorities are continuing their investigations to bring all involved in the scam to justice.
