PANews reported on December 17 that Nigeria's anti-corruption agency conducted a raid in a seven-story building in Lagos, arresting 792 suspects involved in cryptocurrency and romance scams, including 148 Chinese nationals and 40 Filipinos. The building was used as a call center targeting victims in the Americas and Europe, engaging in online entrapment through social media and communication platforms, disguising as fraudulent cryptocurrency investment projects for scamming. Law enforcement seized computers, phones, and vehicles at the scene, and the case may involve transnational organized crime, with investigations ongoing.
