Find the EFCC Press release below ...
Operatives of the Economic
and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, have arrested a syndicate of
scammers for attempting to defraud Enterprise Bank Plc. Ola Lawal,
Olumide Kayode and Abass Adekunle were arrested following a botched
attempt to compromise the bank’s system and steal depositors’ funds
using an electronic device known as Keelog Key Grabber. Continue...
The trio’s arrest way made possible by an insider who revealed to the
bank’s management that some fraudsters were planning to gain access to
its network, using a device called Keelog Key Grabber.
Investigations showed that, a staff of the bank, Owolabi Agboola was
contacted by one of the suspected fraudsters, who proposed a business
arrangement to him on how to hack into the system of the bank.
Agboola subsequently informed management of the bank and he was
instructed to play along with the fraudster.
In the arrangement, an electronic device called keelog Key Grabber would be used to harvest passwords of some of the key operation staff of the bank. The grabber was meant to be plugged into the computer system of the Head of Operation of a particular branch, to retrieve information technology configuration settings from the computer system and pave the way for the fraudsters to move customers’ funds out of the bank.
Lawal was arrested while trying to hand over the Keelog Key Grabber to Agboola.
His arrest led to the arrest of two other suspects: Olumide Kayode Maborukoje and Abass Ajibade.
Items recovered from them include: a keylogger, a laptop, a router, a modem, sim cards, USB keyhole log with a template of keylogger and a jotter containing some account numbers which they intended to use for the fraud.
The suspects would be charged to court as soon as investigation is concluded.
Wow.. Justice for Nigerians against these criminals. Imagine waking up to your account cleared.

IF THEY ARE THIS CLEVER WHY DON'T THEY FORM A LEGITIMATE SMALL BUSINESS TOGETHER AND LIVE CLEAN LIVES. WHAT A PITY THE COUNTRY TURN THEM TO LOCAL THIEVES
ReplyDeleteO ga oooo, Nigeria should provide jobs na! Ds is becoming too much, an idle man is d devils workshop. These things hardlly happen abroad, cos there's work for people to do everywhere, even if u want to work 3jobs a day. Nigeria is becoming smthng else jare. I'm a graduate without a job too, so are my friends. The stupid efcc shld sit deir asses smwhere abeg n arrest d right people.
ReplyDeleteBest comment so far .... Wen the head fails u can't stop the body from following suit... As long as our leaders are not responsible these issues will never seize.... I am also unemployed for now and God knows that if things continue this way I might as well break the law...
DeleteWhy are EFCC guyz so dumb....a USB has an executable file that ends with an .exe when its ran on the system it infects and grabs info...why d fuck are they making it look like the info were stored on the USB yall better start employing yahoo bois...game has gone farther than yall imaginations... #SipKunu
ReplyDeleteThe efcc has actually employed some reformed yahoo boys as ethical hackers and we get the idea behind the USB stick, don't be such a smart ass
DeleteWow!!! Life imitating art. Isn't that ironic that one of the suspect name is MABORUKOJE. This one has borukoje ooo. Very funny indeed.
ReplyDelete@ 11.25pm. Very funny indeed. What an ironic
DeleteName.
Yah, ua right. I thought i was d only one at his name from that perspective. He definitely needs a new name
DeleteCool......pls EFCC arrest more of dis scumbags
ReplyDeleteEFCC go and catch real criminals and leave petty criminals alone! Okay good job
ReplyDeleteHow are these petty criminals? If this plan had worked, millions of ordinary Nigerians would have lost their money and a bank might have been threatened.
DeleteEfcc are doing their work
Boyz they hustle...... Hacking na money if they survive it... But all the same the hustling continue in jail. Sorry big bros!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat should poeple without jobs do?smh!
ReplyDeleteI wonder why they published the banker's name...These guys are probably a part of a larger syndicate of scammers and in turn get back at the guy... Nothing is beyond these scumbags/fraudsters...
ReplyDeleteQuick question, what is wrong with the uncle in blue stripes face?
ReplyDeleteNa wa wa.
ReplyDeleteThis country is dumb ...... Arresting this boys ain't the solution... It's just like treating typhoid with panadol, we all know the solution to our problems, Nigerians ain't lazy we are ready to work... Provide jobs especially for graduates..
ReplyDeleteInvestigate properly and you'd find out that most of this boy's are either graduates or under graduates ... What does this tell you, the country has failed the youth... If our leaders are thieves what is the sin to follow suit.. they are our leaders we look up to them... They use our young girls to satisfy their sexual appetite, subject our able bodied young men to crime.. I weep for naija, my advice: if you Yahoo puts food on your table don't hesitate, keep praying to God we're all his kids he listens , Yahoo boy, runs girl, drug barons regardless
ReplyDeleteThis bitches ain't loyal.... Chai and its the same gals that these boys spend their hard earned money on That finds solace in lib to rain curses on the the same hands that feed them..if you curse them you also curse yourself
ReplyDeleteIt's not our fault I blame it on both the gov't and also our girls .. a naija girl can make a pastor turn to a notorious highway robber.. this people motivate us to make money by any means , as a matter of fact the best way to woo a girl this days is to show her your bank account, it works like magic if you doubt me try it .. Am a living testimony. NB: your account must be fat or at least a lil bit above average
ReplyDeleteSee there stone cold face...heartless people
ReplyDeleteScript Kiddies!!!
ReplyDeleteBad Minded People (Liהda's Maה)
ReplyDeleteAlibaba niggas..sorry dudes.
ReplyDeleteHmmmmm keylogger......
ReplyDeleteFirst things first, these guys are clueless about the workings of the IT and network systems environment.
ReplyDeleteLet it be known that the secure protocols guiding the networks of banks are no joke.
Also, hardware CANNOT just be plugged into an iternal host in a bank's network without being flagged to the system administrator.
More so, installation of removal drives on servers must have been disabled, so these chaps had no clue.
The dumbest move till date was attempting to install a keylogger into the internal workings of a BANK!!! BIG MISTAKE!!!!
Nothing would have been gained from such because:
1. The banks are using good 3rd party software running in the background, hence this will detect that malware in a heartbeat if it succeeds in being
installed
2. Keyloggers only capture keystrokes of hosts on which they have been installed
3.There is definitely no useful information that can be retrieved from whichever host machine they decided to place it on, as all they will get if at all 1
and 2 above were passed, is the personal info and correspondence via this machine e.g personal and work email
4. Before anything can leave the network, one has to be HARDWIRED into this network, and IDS and network hardware have to be compromised. This can take YEARS
if properly configured with good security policies, as this is a bank we are talking about, not a CYBER CAFE!!!!!!!!
5.I think the staff of ALL companies of this magnitude should be schooled on such attempts at 'social engineering' and mitigate against such future threats.
As you are only as strong as your weakest link.

OMG!!! To think I know these guys
ReplyDeleteSo our money in the banks are no longer safe. Since i will go back to the traditional way of saving. I mean digging the ground and hiding my hard earned money there.
ReplyDeleteI even thought they were sophisticated hackers. That device is at a nursery level of hacking. There are software versions of the keylog grabber. U install it on your target system and retrieve your data after.
ReplyDeletesorry you guys
ReplyDeletebrain without idea is nothing
u guys should have use your brain in proper direction
BORN TO SHINE!!!!!
YORUBA BOYS AND FRAUD SHA!!!!! HEAVEN HELP US IN THIS COUNTRY!!!!!

ReplyDeleteSee their ugly faces.
ReplyDeleteThank God they were caught. Stealing from people who worked for it, its just wicked and senseless.
ReplyDeleteIt's a shame its going down like this, If you have a second chance at life again.... Please be wise and make the best use of it... I pray Allah forgives your sin(s) and make you a better person.... So disappointed!
