In Nigeria today, The population of Yahoo Boys is
way higher than that of the Graduates. Everybody
is striving to reap where they did not sow. The
frustration that goes through the mind of Salary
Earners when they see this Fraudsters is quite
disheartening.
The Scammers are on the Increase
everyday by day.
Below are the top cities where you can find most
of these con men in Nigeria.
10. Abuja
Yes, their are a good number of internet fraudsters
in Abuja, a city known to be controlled by political
money bags. These fraudsters who are seen as
Abuja big boys by virtue of the fact that they are
relatives of some big politicians or claim to work
in one government ministry or the other, actually
use those as a cover for their illegal activities.
9. Abeokuta, Ogun State
This is a town with a growing number of youth
interest in online scam. These young men
sometime in 2014 H@cked into an Ogun state
owned account and stole millions of Naira. This
could anyway be attributed to poor security system
with the bank in question.
8. Kaduna, Kaduna State
Kaduna is another town with a growing number of
yahoo boys. There has even been reports of
attempts to steal the identity of the new Governor
Malam Nasir Ahmad El-Rufai.
7. Awka, Anambra State
The scammers here who are majorly
undergraduate students appears to have been
gradually deserting the town as security operative
had busted them many times in the past and had
continued to be on their trail.
6. Enugu, Enugu State
Enugu is a place where yahoo boys are growing in
their number as the city has quiet estates and
accommodations where these young men hide
away to carry out their illegal jobs without easily
getting noticed.
5. Owerri, Imo State
A large number of Yahoo boys can be found in
Owerri. They are well known in major hotel
within the city where they go to squander their
money on women. They also ride flashy cars
around the city with people usually hailing them.
4. Warri, Delta State
Internet scam is so popular among the youths in
Warri, Asaba, and other major towns in Delta state
that they even impersonate their state governor
without fear.
3. Port Harcourt, Rivers State
Port Harcourt is a place where internet scam is
fast becoming a hobby. You will hardly see a
young boy who doesn’t know someone involved in
this ugly activity. Even with the increase in the
number of people captured by the EFCC there, they
appear not to be perturbed.
2. Benin City, Edo State
Benin is a known hotspot for the so-called Yahoo
guys. Young boys of different age groups here
engaged in online dating of foreigners particularly
widows. They use different pseudo names and
pictures to deceive their prospective victims. They
also believe in charm helping them to hit their
“maga” easily.
1. Lagos
Lagos is the headquarters of Internet Fraudsters in
Nigeria. Virtually every corner of Lagos, from
Lekki to the mainlands, has these con men who
refer to themselves as “Gee Boys” meaning guys
with swags and knows what’s up. The biggest
amongst them own houses and live very expensive
lifestyles in Lagos.
What do you think guys?
Which City in Nigeria do you think is missing on
this List?
For Me =>Osogbo is also loaded with Yahoo boys
but did not make this list because their number is
low compare to that of the Other Top 10 Cities
listed above.
