Nigeria’s Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has arrested 105 individuals, including four Chinese nationals.
The anti-graft agency noted that 105 individuals were arrested for allegedly running an internet fraud scheme targeting hotels in Europe and beyond.
EFCC spokesperson Dele Oyewale said in a statement on Friday that the suspects were apprehended on Thursday during a raid at an apartment in Abuja, the nation’s capital.
He added that the group is accused of operating a fraudulent “hotel review job” scheme.
Investigations are underway, and all suspects will face trial once inquiries are complete, Oyewale confirmed.
This follows a similar crackdown last month when nearly 800 people, including 148 Chinese and 40 Filipino nationals, were arrested in connection with a global fraud operation.
That scheme reportedly involved luring victims through romance scams and defrauding them with fake cryptocurrency investments.
Authorities say the arrests underline Nigeria’s commitment to tackling cybercrime and international fraud networks.
