He faked aid then stole $5,000
The scam was carried out through a money transfer app, where a woman collected donations for displaced people and shared her phone number via WhatsApp groups. She was then defrauded by someone claiming to help resolve an issue related to pending financial transfers. The scammer convinced her that he would assist her in resolving the problem and, exploiting her trust, asked her to transfer $5,000. He then sent her a verification code, and after she sent the code, the funds disappeared from her account, revealing that the scammer had stolen the money. The funds were tracked, frozen, and fully recovered. Authorities are working to identify and apprehend those involved, while warning citizens against online scams.
