A Vietnamese court has sentenced a Nigerian, Mr. Oshanugor
James Anyasi, 35, to 12 years in prison for allegedly conniving with three
others to dupe 10 women, many who are Vietnamese of N400 million after
promising them fake love and business. Anyasi was found guilty of a two
count charges of fraud and cyber crime by a Hanoi Court.
According to the report, Anyasi and three others had hooked up with the women online sometimes in September 2012, pretending to be their lovers and business associates and then promising them expensive gifts, while faking phone calls and e-mails from customs and shipping agencies to ask them to transfer shipping fees to certain accounts.
Investigations
revealed that the gang had defrauded the ten women of some huge amounts of
money in separate interactions before they realized they had been duped. Of the
money stolen from the women, Anyasi got 15 per cent by playing the role of an
English businessman and chatting with the women, while their female accomplice
got 10 per cent, and the other two, who are reportedly based in Malaysia, got
75 per cent.
