A Nigerian man has allegedly been caught in a shocking scheme where he faked the death of his mother, using a fabricated obituary to scam his schoolmates out of millions of naira. This disturbing story recently surfaced on social media, sparking outrage and disbelief.
The individual, identified as Adesanya Oluwatumilara, is accused of manipulating the grief of his peers to solicit large sums of money.
He reportedly used the fabricated tragedy to gather donations, claiming his mother had passed away, only to later flaunt his ill-gotten gains by spending extravagantly.
The accusations, which were widely shared on X (formerly Twitter), were accompanied by a video showing Adesanya partying in a club, happily throwing around cash and enjoying himself.
The post that revealed the scam was filled with furious comments from those who had been deceived, with one social media user calling him a “bloody thief” for his deceit.
As the post gained traction, more people came forward, with some revealing they had narrowly avoided falling for his fraudulent scheme.
The online outrage intensified, with many people condemning him for his actions and warning others to never trust him again.
Some even speculated that the scammer might eventually rise to positions of power in Nigeria, given the country’s troubling history of rewarding such behavior.
The incident has left many questioning how such a callous act could be committed by someone pretending to be in mourning, and it has raised concerns about the lengths to which some individuals will go to exploit others.
