fraudster, Elvis Yemaye for allegedly
defrauding one A.J. Kuba, to the sum of $
19,534 (Nineteen thousand, five hundred and
thirty four US dollars)
According to a statement released by the
agency, Kuba alleged that Yemaye in
collaboration with his cronies had swindled
him of huge sum of money running to
millions while threatening to release a
recorded romance video belonging him to the
public.
The complainant noted that Yemaye started
his blackmail when the he, the victim decided
to back out from an earlier business of
making him a beneficiary of his inheritance,
a business he later found out to be a scam.
Investigation into the matter revealed that,
the suspect falsely represented himself to the
unsuspecting Kuba as Chief Barrister Elvis
Yemaye. He also parades himself as an
official of both the EFCC and the Central
Bank of Nigeria, CBN using various fictitious
e-mails.
It was also discovered that the suspect
claimed to be one Tommy Rex Jr., whose
picture he used to lure his victim to sending
money to him under the pretext of making
him a beneficiary of his inheritance.
Yemaye will be charged to court as soon as
investigation is concluded on him.
