The Police in India have arrested a Nigerian man identified as David Ujma Uba, for defrauding 20 people of Rs 3 crore (N16.55m) in a kidney donation scam.
The 32-year-old allegedly created a fake hospital website and issued an advertisement asking those in need of kidneys to get in touch with him while promising to help his victims secure kidney donations.
According to Times of India, he police said Uba asked those who contacted him to pay various sums into his bank account but failed to render the services he advertised.
The victims filed a complaint with Kolkata cyber crime police in April when they realized they had been scammed.
Uba was, therefore, traced through his phone’s call record details and arrested at his friend’s place in Nagenahalli Dinne near Kothanur.
