FBI-wanted Nigerian suspect ‘Ezeego’ extradited to U.S. over alleged $100m fraud scheme

Suspected fraudster, Osondu Victor Igwilo, popularly known as “Ezeego King of the Boys,” has reportedly been extradited from Nigeria to the United States to face fraud-related charges.

 

 

 

According to reports, Igwilo was extradited from the Kuje Custodial Centre in Abuja on Monday.

 

 

 

The FBI-wanted suspect was arrested by the EFCC in 2022 over allegations of fraud, money laundering and identity theft linked to an alleged $100 million international fraud scheme.

 

 

 

U.S. authorities had earlier accused him of masterminding an advance-fee fraud network that allegedly targeted victims across several countries through fake investment offers and phishing scams.

 

 

 

He is expected to face charges including wire fraud, money laundering and aggravated identity theft in the United States.
