FRAUD: THE BANE OF A NATION

This book tells the story of how fraud has evolved in Nigeria since the 1970s, and how the successes of the fraudulent operations over the years have inspired equal remonstrations in the nations of their victims so that, the image of Nigeria has been connected to fraud and popularized as “419.” It is the unfortunate and embarrassing activities perpetrated by some Nigerians within and outside the country, which have tarnished the image of the country and its citizens across the globe, that the author has termed “The Bane of a Nation.”The primary objective of this book is to create awareness of the growing trends of frauds and scammers, not only in Nigeria, but across the globe, and, then, equip the reader with the requisite knowledge of how to identify a scam and avoid being a victim. Fraud evolves and gets more sophisticated every day: it has become a global pandemic. In this book, the author has been able to expose a lot of the tricks currently in vogue; the appearance and modus operandi of the tricksters have been also exposed. Most of the names used in this book are fictitious, but the stories are real. In this book, greater emphasis is on the notorious “Hustlers” and their “Yahoo-Yahoo” in its three levels of manifestations. This book is just for you: it is for all age groups. Please, read and be wise!
