Three Nigerians, Nnamdi Benson, Richard Uzuh, and Felix Okpoh, have been placed on the United States Federal Bureau of Intelligence’s Most-Wanted list for their alleged involvement in a $6m Business Email Compromise scheme.

PUNCH Metro gathered on Wednesday from notices published on the FBI website that the trio were part of a syndicate that allegedly defrauded over 70 businesses in the US.

The notice stressed Benson’s role in the scheme, indicating that he allegedly provided bank accounts to receive proceeds from the fraudulent transactions.

It noted that Benson was also suspected to be involved in romance and advance fee fraud scam and was indicted by a US court in August 2019.

The notice read, “Nnamdi Orson Benson is wanted for his alleged involvement in a Business Email Compromise scheme that defrauded over 70 different businesses in the United States resulting in combined losses of over $6,000,000.

“Benson allegedly provided bank accounts to Richard Izuchukwu Uzuh that were used to receive fraudulent wire transfers. Benson also allegedly conducted romance fraud and advanced fee fraud schemes himself.

“On August 21, 2019, Benson, along with Felix Osilama Okpoh, and Abiola Ayorinde Kayode, was indicted in the United States District Court, District of Nebraska, Omaha, Nebraska, on charges of Conspiracy to Commit Wire Fraud. On August 22, 2019, a federal warrant was issued for his arrest.”

Another notice stating the details of Okpoh’s alleged offence noted that he also provided numerous bank accounts to Uzuh to receive proceeds of the scam totalling about $1m.

It read, “Okpoh allegedly provided hundreds of bank accounts to Richard Izuchukwu Uzuh and other co-conspirators, Abiola Ayorinde Kayode and Nnamdi Orson Benson, that were used to receive fraudulent wire transfers.

“Bank accounts that Okpoh allegedly provided to Uzuh received fraudulent wire transfers from victim businesses totalling over $1,000,000. On August 21, 2019, Okpoh was indicted in the United States District Court, District of Nebraska, Omaha, Nebraska, on charges of Conspiracy to Commit Wire Fraud. On August 22, 2019, a federal warrant was issued for his arrest.”
