Turkey Police have
nabbed members of a notorious internet fraud syndicate led by a Nigeria simply
known as Otunba Cash.
According to the
Interpol, a shocking discovery of fraud in a Turkish company based in Denmark
by the Danish Police triggered all the problems which led to the arrest of
members of the criminal network.

breached and over $1.4m fleeced from its coffers with fake invoices and
receipts sent to a fronting company in Turkey.
Following the alarm sent
by the Danish police in May 2018 to their Turkish counterparts, three Turks
were detained as well as their five Nigerian colleagues who were found
respectively at luxury hotels and opulent residences.
The Nigerian suspects
were led by one Emeka Aneke popularly known as Otunba Cash said to be super
experts at hacking into big international companies email and accounts and
using duplicate websites to defraud them.
