A man dressed in NYSC uniform was reportedly caught at Computer Village while trying to buy a phone with what appeared to be a fake payment alert.
A man wearing an NYSC uniform was caught at Computer Village in Lagos State on Sunday, October 3, after allegedly trying to buy an iPhone XR using a fake bank transfer alert.
According to the phone seller, the suspect visited their shop to make the purchase and showed a fraudulent payment confirmation screen.
Suspecting fraud, the seller confronted him and made him demonstrate how he generated the fake transfer alert on his phone so other vendors could be alerted to the scam.
While going through the suspect's transaction history, the seller allegedly uncovered multiple fake payment receipts sent to different individuals dating back to last year, suggesting a long-standing history of similar scams.
The incident has prompted warnings for local business owners to double-check incoming transfers, though law enforcement authorities have not yet issued an official update regarding the man's arrest or legal status.
