South African Police Service has extradited six Nigerians to the United States in connection with an alleged $6 million online romance scam targeting American women, according to reports. The suspects, associated with an organized criminal network known as Black Axe, were repatriated from Cape Town in South Africa on Friday. Initially arrested in 2021, they are set to face wire fraud and money laundering charges in the U.S., specifically related to cyber-enabled financial fraud through romance scams, cryptocurrency, and other fraudulent schemes.
