The Bureau of Immigration (BI) has arrested a Nigerian national who allegedly victimized 700 clients of a major bank in the country last year.
BI Commissioner Jaime Morente said 27-year-old Henry Chidi Obioma was apprehended by immigration intelligence operatives in Las Pinas City last April 21.
The BI chief said Obioma was not able to present travel documents making him an undocumented alien.
Without detailing his crime, Morente said the Nigerian was "involved in the online banking fraud that affected at least 700 clients of a major banking institution."
“Scammers and fraudsters are not welcome in the country and will be arrested and deported for being undesirable,” he added.
