In December 2024, Nigeria's Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) conducted a significant raid on the Big Leaf Building in Lagos, arresting 792 individuals involved in extensive online fraud schemes. The suspects, including 148 Chinese and 40 Filipinos, operated a call center targeting victims in the Americas and Europe through romance and cryptocurrency scams. Nigerian participants initiated contact to build trust, after which foreign accomplices executed the fraudulent activities. Seized items included computers, phones, and vehicles. This operation underscores Nigeria's intensified efforts to combat cybercrime and improve its international reputation.
