Interpol nab Lagos Big boy for hacking his employer’s blockchain and stealing N67bn
A Nigerian man identified as Abayomi Segun Oluwasesan, has been arrested by the international criminal police, Interpol, for hacking his company Afriq Arbitrage System’s blockchain and carting away over N67bn.
Abayomi alongside an accomplice of his was arrested earlier in the week over his alleged theft from the global crypto company.
We gathered that Abayomi, who was employed by the company on June 15, 2022 to work as a web developer, hacked the platform at a time when his boss, Jesam Micheal went for a liver transplant and entrusted the codes to him.
Abayomi, had enlisted unscrupulous characters to assist him in the grand theft auto as they’d had disrupted the smooth running of the business and siphoned investor funds.
He proceeded to spend the stolen funds lavishly including allegedly opening a car dealership known as Fidoray Autos, buying a house and acquiring a residence permits in the U.K and others.
