The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has apprehended notorious Nigerian fraudster Oluyomi Omobolanle Bombata, also known as Bobo Chicago, in connection with a staggering $2.8 million fraud scheme.
Bombata, 25, was arrested on November 20 in Chicago, Illinois, following a months-long investigation into fraudulent activities that targeted several businesses and individuals.
Bobo Chicago, whose lavish lifestyle earned him the alias “Bola Flexx,” is accused of perpetrating the fraud between June and October 2023.
He allegedly hacked into multiple company and personal accounts across Oklahoma, diverting millions in a series of sophisticated wire fraud and money laundering schemes.
According to the FBI, he is facing five serious charges, including wire fraud, conspiracy to commit wire fraud, money laundering, conspiracy to commit money laundering, and unlawful monetary transactions.
“During our investigation, we were able to trace more than $2.8 million in fraudulent transfers linked to Bombata’s activities,” said an FBI source.
