Polls: Beware of Voodoo Dollars in Circulation, EFCC Warns Nigerians, Takes Campaign to BDC Operators

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, today, February 21, 2019 took its sensitization campaign to Bureaux de Change, BDC operators at the Wuse Zone 4 Office in Abuja, the Federal Capital Territory.



The EFCC team, which was led by ADC Aisha Larai Musa, Head, EFCC’s Creative Communications Unit, used the opportunity to warn the BDC operators on the dangerous trend of an influx of fake Dollar notes now in circulation.

Advising the operators to be at alert, Musa, urged them to be cautious because "as the electioneering period peaks, you are now a soft target for money laundering and circulation of fake dollar notes”.

She further urged them to report any such cases to the EFCC including vote buying incidents, through its hotlines: 08141219896, 09077928772, 09051923475, 09074456025, 09051916064, and 09066270016.
