Omotade-Sparks Amos Sewanu ponzi scheme operator declared wanted by EFCC

He is the mastermind of a huge pyramid investment scheme through which many citizens were defrauded of monies to the tune of over N32 Million Naira.

He had floated a phoney online digital currency called “Pinkoin” which lured many Nigerians to invest between N1,000 to N100,000 with a promise of unrealistic returns.

He went ahead to distribute a payment card called “Pink Card” to further confuse his victims.

Omotade-Sparks equally made false claims that he was in partnership with the EFCC to persuade people to invest in his devious scheme.

The scammer was not licensed to operate a financial institution.

He will be arraigned in Court at the conclusion of investigation, Uwujaren said.
