The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has invited Nigerians who fell victim to the alleged fraudulent cryptocurrency trading platform, Crypto Bridge Exchange (CBEX), to report to its zonal offices in Ibadan and Lagos.
The anti-graft agency disclosed on Friday that it is currently prosecuting three suspects, Adefowoara Abiodun Olanipekun, Otorudo Avwerosuo, and Ehirim Justice Chukwuebuka, for their alleged involvement in the scheme.
According to the EFCC, the suspects are accused of operating CBEX as an online trading platform that lured unsuspecting investors with promises of unrealistic returns, leading to widespread financial losses.
“In view of the ongoing investigation, the Commission invites victims who invested their funds through individuals linked to CBEX’s offices in Ibadan and Idimu, Lagos, to report to its Ibadan Zonal Directorate and Lagos Zonal Directorate 2,” the EFCC stated.
The Commission listed the contact addresses as:
-
Ibadan Zonal Directorate: 16A, Reverend Oyebode Crescent, Iyaganku, Ibadan, Oyo State.
-
Lagos Zonal Directorate 2: 7A, Okotie-Eboh Street, Ikoyi, Lagos.
The EFCC assured that the testimonies of victims would aid its ongoing prosecution and recovery efforts.
