The woman, posting under the handle @ifedayo_johnson, explained that she reached out to Nnamdi for assistance with a naira-to-pound exchange.
After transferring the full amount to a bank account he provided, communication reportedly ceased. Her efforts to contact him were ignored, leading her to believe she had been conned.
To support her allegations, she released screenshots of their chats and shared sensitive information linked to Nnamdi, including a photo of his passport.
She warned others in similar online groups, stating that anyone who has ever been duped during a currency transaction in the UK likely encountered the same individual.
According to her, Nnamdi has allegedly been running this scam operation since 2023, luring unsuspecting victims via WhatsApp and Telegram communities used by Nigerians for exchanging currency.
The story quickly picked up steam, drawing reactions from other users who questioned the use of unofficial channels for financial transactions. Some expressed sympathy for her loss, while others criticized the decision to trust someone operating outside regulated financial systems.
Several comments hinted that Nnamdi may have a history of playing the victim, as one user recalled him previously lamenting about being scammed.
Meanwhile, others voiced frustration over how often Nigerians abroad fall prey to such scams due to lack of trust in formal exchange platforms.
The online uproar has now shifted attention to the risks faced by diaspora communities when handling finances through informal channels, raising concerns over digital fraud and accountability.
