Leah was turned into a cash mule
In the video, one of the men explained that Leah literally gave up everything and was ready to move to Miami to reunite with the scammer on November 10.
Leah, who had been married thrice, thought she had finally found love when she met Christopher Rodriguez on Facebook six months ago.
However, Christopher Rodriguez does not exist in real life and was the fake identity the yahoo boy used, which was stolen from a white man named Eric Powell.
Presenting himself as a day online trader, the yahoo boy turned Leah into a cash mule, got her bank credentials, and gained her love and trust. A heartbroken Leah could not believe her eyes. She said:
“On top of the fact that I gave up my job to move to Miami. I don’t even have enough gas in my car to do DoorDash to make more money. I am broke. I am broken.”

Oyinbo man tricks yahoo boy
Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that an Oyinbo man had caught a yahoo boy after tricking him.
To track the person down, the man (@youthpastorryan) sent an email saying he was to give the person US government money. The supposed scammer asked the man to pay through Bitcoin or Apple gift card.
The man sent him a tricky link, and he clicked on it, revealing both his location and IP Address. In a video, he said he was able to trace the Yahoo boy to Port Harcourt.
