The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), and its partners across the globe, have arrested 65 suspects in the United States, including 12 in Nigeria, eight in South Africa, two in Canada and one in Cambodia.


They are all suspects of large-scale wire and other fraud against its nationals.


In July last year, a US court issued a warrant of arrest for Nigeria’s Deputy Commissioner of Police, Abba Kyari, over his role in $1.1m fraud coordinated by a serial internet fraudster, Ramon Abbas, aka Hushpuppi.


However, in another global operation, the FBI said in a statement released Wednesday, the suspects were arrested for Business E-mail Compromise, (BEC) schemes, which target employees of businesses that make payments through wire transfers.


The global crackdown, code-named ‘Operation Eagle Sweep’, was carried out over a three-month period, the report stated.
