The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC has arrested an alleged serial visa scammer, Enock Ifeoluw Ogungbamigbe which it says specializes in duping Nigerians desperate to migrate to Canada either to work or further their education through fake visa and job offers.
The information contained in a Statement by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission says the 32-year old Enock who owns a Garden in Mpape, a suburb of Abuja was picked up at Transcorp Hotel, Abuja by operatives of the Commission when he responded to an appointment to procure a visa for an applicant intending to migrate to Canada which unknown to him was a bait.
His arrest followed a petition by a victim who lost five million naira to the suspect as processing fees for Visa to Canada.
The suspect had also promised the victim a job upon arrival in Canada. But he only delivered fake visas to the victims and all efforts to recover the money were futile.
The EFCC says the suspect would be charged to court as soon as investigation is concluded.
