The Economic and
Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has arrested one Hajiya Hadiza Umar Abubakar
for allegedly defrauding a job seeker, Nuradeen Abubakar of N3million.
The businesswoman
who promised the unsuspecting job seeker an instant employment in EFCC, was
nabbed in a bank where she was making a transaction on her account.

the victim met the suspect through her son and was asked to pay N6m, but he
only paid N3m into the suspect’s account on October 29, 2019. He promised to
pay the balance after receiving his employment letter.
The letter was
promised to be delivered on November 7, 2019, two weeks from the date of the
part payment.
Dele Oyewale, EFCC
spokesman said in a statement on Thursday September 3;
“The suspect was
arrested in a bank she sent her son to make a transaction, unaware that the
EFCC had placed a Post No Debit (PND) on all her accounts.
“The victim stated
that he had not received an employment letter nine months after paying the
suspect."
The statement added
