FBI arrests Nigerian 'tech queen' Sapphire Egemasi over alleged fraud in US.
Their arrest stems from a federal grand jury indictment filed in 2024, charging the suspects with multiple counts of internet fraud and money laundering for crimes said to have occurred between September 2021 and February 2023.
Egemasi and her Ghanaian co-defendants allegedly conspired to defraud the city of Kentucky of millions of dollars.
According to investigators, her role involved designing spoof websites impersonating official US government domains to steal login credentials and facilitate the transfer of stolen funds.
Before her arrest, Egemasi was reportedly based in Cambridge, United Kingdom, although authorities believe she previously lived in Ghana, where she likely established ties with her co-conspirators.
She allegedly served as the syndicate’s tech lead, orchestrating the creation of fake sites and overseeing wire transfers to accounts under the gang’s control.
Text message records allegedly show that in August 2022, the syndicate rerouted $965,000 stolen from Kentucky into a PNC Bank account.
In a separate transaction around the same time, $330,000 was funnelled into an account with Bank of America.
