Husband and Wife Arrested For Duping Victims of N20 Million in Lagos
The couple misled their targets into thinking that they had goods locked up in containers ready to be auctioned
Danladi Wushishi and his wife, Ojuolape were said to have taken their victims to fake customs terminals under the pretense of having goods locked up and ready for sale.
However, once the unsuspecting victims had parted with the sum of money agreed upon, they would wait endlessly for the merchandise which would never arrive.
Before they were caught, the Wushishis had allegedly succeeded in duping one Mr. Livinus of N19 million while 2 other victims, Chinyere Uzorchukwu and Nkechi Anokwuru also lost money to the suspects.
