In a significant operation, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has apprehended 33 individuals suspected of engaging in internet fraud, commonly referred to as “yahoo boys,” in Rivers State.

According to EFCC spokesperson, Dele Oyewale, the arrests were made during a covert operation targeting notable hideouts in the Iwofe and Ogboro neighborhoods of Port Harcourt. This action was prompted by reliable intelligence regarding the suspects’ alleged involvement in fraudulent online activities.
