                  The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has returned about $26,000 to the American victims of love scam.

Reportedly, Miss Sanders expressed delight at the professionalism demonstrated by the Nigerian agency in helping to recover the money which she thought she had lost to the scammer.
                    The victim met a suspected Nigerian fraudster, Benjamin Akugbe, online and fell in love with him. The scammer, who claimed to be Benny Brown from Warri, Delta State, promised her marriage, and requested the sum of $2,000 to enable him join her in United States of America.

Another American woman, Jolanta Kasza, from New York, also became a victim of a Nigerian scammer. She was fleeced of $64,000 by a suspected Nigerian Fraudster, Ndekwu Jindu (aka Dr. Daniel Coffman) in a romance scam.

Miss Kasza allegedly met Coffman online in June 2012, and the fraudster introduced himself as self-employed white pharmacist. Impressed by the profile, Kasza "fell in love" with both agreeing to get married. As a result, she had lost $64,000 USD to the fraudster.

However, after she petitioned the EFCC, the agency through discreet investigation recovered $23,886.
