Jim Iyke - Victim of impersonation |
Investigators have just released details of the modus operandi of the person(s) impersonating the famous Nollywood star Jim Iyke. It is now known that after successfully conning unsuspecting fans of the actor via Facebook and possibly other social media, they then collect the cash and other valuable items sent to them by utilising a Barclays Bank account bearing the full names of Jim Iyke and on the other hand they present themselves at courier centres under the guise of fictitious names. Investigators trailing the fraudster{s) revealed the following banking details this morning - Account name: Jim Iyke Esomugha; bank name: Barclays Bank Plc; E-mail: info@b-eoline.org. The suspects who're believed to be based in Nigeria but with international connections then physically collect parcels of valuable donations sent from around the world by posing with the fictitious names of Albert Williams. So far, they've been tracked to the Delta State headquarters of FedEx courier where the're known to have picked up packages. As the FBI continues to trail the rogues, the actor who is currently on set in the Delta State's capital of Asaba is livid and warned that he is in no way connected to the fraud. "I have not sent anyone to ask for money or any form of charity", he declared last night adding that judging by the sophistication of their network, the scamers may not be working alone and that other celebrities may also be targeted.
