Nigeria: Investigation - the Multi-Million Dollar Norwegian Scam and the Role of a Nigerian
[Premium Times] This is the story of a sophisticated scam network that cost its victims millions of dollars in different parts of the world.
David Erubure, described as a web developer and IT expert living in Warri, Delta State, Nigeria, is the subject of an international investigation due to his involvement in a multi-million dollar fraudulent scheme. His neighbours, shop owners, and social media followers are unaware of this fact. The Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation (NRK) and the Nigerian PREMIUM TIMES conducted a months-long investigation into the scam network, which included the identification of influencer Mi Le Hagen, whose TikTok profile was used to deceive followers with investment advice.
The scammers created fake investment websites, such as 247autobot.com, where they stole money from unsuspecting investors. Ethical hacker Daniel Christensen helped identify the fraudulent websites and tracked the scammer's actions.
