Operatives of the Ilorin Zonal Directorate of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), have arrested 15 suspected internet fraudsters in Tanke Oke-Odo area of Ilorin, the Kwara State capital.

This was contained in a statement released on the official X handle of the EFCC on Wednesday.

The statement revealed that officers of the Directorate had in last week arrested 22 internet fraudsters in Tanke, Also Farm Estate, Yidi road, and Irewolede areas of Ilorin.

Moreso, the recent arrest, which led to the recovery of some luxurious properties from the suspects came following credible intelligence who linked them to the fraudulent internet activities.

According to the statement, “Officers of the Directorate had earlier on Friday, March 22, 2025 arrested 22 suspected internet fraudsters in Tanke, Alao Farm Estate, Yidi Road, and Irewolede areas of Ilorin.

“The arrest of the suspects followed credible intelligence that linked them to fraudulent internet activities. Items recovered from them at the point of arrest included eight luxury cars, smartphones and high-end laptop computers”.

The two arrests which took place in the space of one week brought to book 37 suspected internet fraudsters, rounded up by the anti-graft in Ilorin.

Meanwhile, the suspects will be charged to court once investigations are concluded, the statement revealed.
