Nnamdi Benson Biography: Nigerian Fugitive Linked to Romance and BEC Fraud
According to facts gathered by our team, Nnamdi Orson Benson, also known as “Namo,” was born on March 21, 1987, in Nigeria. He has black hair and brown eyes.
Make we look at the facts. Benson allegedly provided bank accounts that received the fraudulent wire transfers from the same Business Email Compromise operation that cost more than seventy U.S. businesses over six million dollars.
On top of that, authorities say he ran his own romance fraud and advanced-fee schemes, talking lonely people out of their money and then feeding their account details into the bigger network.
On August 21, 2019, he was indicted alongside others in the District of Nebraska on conspiracy to commit wire fraud. A warrant came out the next day.
He is believed to be residing in Nigeria and is listed as an international flight risk. As it stands right now, the FBI still wants him badly enough to keep him on the Cyber’s Most Wanted page.
