The way Nigerian society has normalized and accepted internet fraud has made it look as if it’s a normal thing and people have accepted it as a good way of making quick and easy money. Some parents support their children and even take them to prayer houses for prayers for them to be successful fraudsters. A pastor in Benin city was seen in a video the other prophesying for his church youths that are into internet fraud “to pick” and become more successful so that they can sow more seeds and pay have offerings.

People now baptize it and call it “hustles; but no matter how much you try to sugarcoat it, internet fraud Aka yahoo is stealing and not hustle as people call it, if you are an internet fraudster you are simply a thief and a criminal waiting to be caught and sent to jail by the law enforcement agents. It will always end in doom.
By the nature of my work as a lawyer, I have come in a close encounters on numerous occasions with some internet fraudsters; some of them contacted me to represent them when they got arrested and charged to court by law enforcement agents and it is pathological to see that some of them do not have any sense of guilt, they feel they are doing the right thing, maybe because of the societal acceptance of this crime.
No matter how much you want to try and cover up, the end of it is doom and destruction if you do not get out of it; you can confirm from Hushpuppi or Invictus Obi who are currently in the US jail doing their time, peradventure you are able to escape getting caught by the arms of the law, the tears of those you have ever defrauded will always be on your head and karma will always catch up with you.
Some of your victims commit suicide because you take everything from them, all they have ever worked for, their retirement plan, the money they borrowed from banks and they are left with nothing. Some fall into depression because of what you put them through. Internet fraudsters are pathologically greedy that once they start stealing from their victims they must be sure that everything is taken before they will dump the victim and jump over to the next one.
It is surprising to know that girls are into yahoo yahoo, it is no longer a gender-sensitive crime that is reserved exclusively for men.
Some even form a conglomerate of internet fraudsters which they call “HK” where they train and bring up other Yahoo wannabes.
Innocent Nigerians are constantly profiled and stereotyped in the international scene due to the handwork of internet fraudsters and their cohorts in the drug smuggling business. Honest Nigerians are being tagged as fraudsters and dishonest and getting dropped from business deals on daily bases because of what internet fraudsters are doing.
I want to appeal to your sense of decency and morality (if you still have any left in you) to ask yourself why you must live off of other people’s tears and sorrows. If you are an internet fraudster, it’s not too late to turn on a new leaf and utilize yourself to earn a living from a legitimate source.
