    It’s informative and enlightening that Nairametrics decided to publish news and stories about this fraudster couple. It will be nice and awesome if the Nairametrics team can also do well to fish out other evil perpetrators like this, one after the other, including the Bolgate Rice Investment that also stopped paying since August 2021. They also need to be investigated as soon as possible.

    I wonder how Nigerians are easily conned. Nothing like doing business with your money yourself or you invest in banks. Nigerian government has no time to protect anybody.

    Nairametric can do well if they consider investigative journalism on digital investment in Nigeria to help fish out these fraudsters.

    Another scam that has defrauded Nigerians is Racksterli run by a young man identified as Luitetesam on instagram with this instagram link… https://instagram.com/luistetesam?igshid=160p6inmjw7kq

    Another scam that have defrauded Nigerians hard earned income is Quintessential Investment Company owned by one Mr. Kayode Joshua.

    They must all be brought to book.

    There is another one in Ibadan called Bolinger Investment being managed by one pastor Mayowa Adegoke. He has absconded with millions of investors money also.
