27 arrested in Kenya over global investment scams
In Nigeria, police dismantled a high-yield investment fraud ring that recruited young individuals to carry out cyber-enabled crimes using phishing, identity theft, social engineering, and fake digital asset investment schemes.
27 suspects have been arrested in Kenya for allegedly luring their victims into fake investments in top global corporates, the global police body Interpol said on Thursday.
The arrests in Kenya were part of an operation across 16 African countries, targeting the infrastructure and individuals behind high-yield investment scams, mobile money fraud, and fraudulent mobile loan applications.
