The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), Kwara State Command, has confirmed the arrest of a fraudster, Babatunde Adekunle, for swapping the Automated Teller Machine (ATM) card of an old man and using the card to withdraw N1.8m from the man’s account.

The state Commandant of the NSCDC, Umar Mohammed, paraded Adekunle alongside six other suspects nabbed with two trucks loaded with railway slippers at Oloru in the Moro Local Government Area of the state.

Mohammed said Babatunde Adekunle, 41, was alleged to have fraudulently swapped his ATM card with that of an old man at one of the ATM points in a bank in Ilorin.

“Having swapped the card, he allegedly withdrew N1.8m from the account. The case was reported and the commandant mandated the tracking unit to arrest him,” he said.
