The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) have arrested one Deborah Okiemute for alleged Internet fraud, just a few hours after she flaunted her flashy car on the social media.

Deborah, also known as Sassie Dira on Facebook, was arrested with three other members of a syndicate of internet fraudsters in Makurdi, Benue State.

The suspects, Gideon Damisa, Sunday James, Friday Ebosele and Okiemute Deborah, were arrested on Saturday May 1, following intelligence report on their alleged criminal activities in and around Makurdi metropolis.

At the point of arrest, the principal suspect Gideon Damisa was in possession of a Mercedes Benz GLK 350 2010 Model, 1 iPhone, 2 Pro Max, 2 Infinix phone and ATM cards, among others.

Sassie Dira, who had made a Facebook post on that same day, posed by the side of her flashy car while calling on guys with royal blood to link up with her.

“First day of the month looking absolutely stunning as usual, fake life at its peak but don’t borrow clothing to show off fully focused for the kingdom and the king’s spec only those with Royal blood should DM, ‘ she wrote.

Hours after she made the post, the EFCC picked her up for alleged involvement in internet fraud. The four suspects will soon be charged to court.

 

This is coming just a few weeks after the EFCC arrested a popular Instagram comedian, Pankeeroy, for his alleged involvement in computer-related fraud.
