The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has said that Nigeria’s most-wanted hacker, Ramoni Igbalode, alias Ray Hushpuppy, has a number of cases to answer with the anti-graft agency.
A statement by the EFCC noted that Hushpuppy who was recently arrested by the International Police(Interpol) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation(FBI), has considerable cases of cyber crimes being investigated by the Commission.
The statement read in part: “The Commission is familiar with grisly details of his money laundering transactions, involving many high-profile cyber criminals facing trials in Nigeria.
“The Commission is engaging with the FBI in tracing victims of his fraudulent transactions and other fraudsters having direct involvement with him. Local cyber criminals with money laundering networks with him, are also being investigated.”
Hushpuppi was arrested on Wednesday, June 10, 2020 in United Arab Emirates in connection with a $35million ventilator scam.
