We found out that yahoo boys perform rituals and obtain charms – American Investigator who came to Nigeria on “yahoo” fact finding mission says (video)

An American investigator tracking cybercrime syndicates in Nigeria has revealed details regarding the integration of ritual practices—locally referred to as “Yahoo Plus”—by internet fraudsters operating in Lagos.
 

In an account documenting her field investigation in the commercial capital, the visitor detailed navigating high-risk environments and refuse dumps to locate hidden shrines where fraudsters allegedly obtain spiritual charms intended to manipulate victims overseas.
 

“On our trip to track down scammers in Lagos, Nigeria, we uncovered something shocking. We found out that ‘Yahoo Plus’ is a real thing and that some Yahoo Boys perform rituals and obtain charms to help them manipulate their victims. We even had to search through heaps of dirt and refuse to find the hideout where these charms were made.The investigation confirmed that beyond conventional phishing and social engineering, there is a reliance on occult shrines, herbalists, and ritualists who prepare specialized charms designed to psychologically subdue targets. The fraud operators utilize these charms alongside online manipulation tactics to fleece foreign victims, relying on belief in spiritual influence to guarantee successful financial extraction.”
