Fraudsters h**k into Vanguard
reporter’s e-mail
Meantime, fraudsters have hacked
into the e-mail box of the Sapele
correspondent of Vanguard
Newspapers, Mr Godwin Oghre ,
which reads: godwinoghre@
gmail.com , and are using it to
send mails to unsuspecting
individuals whose contacts were
contained there.
The fraudsters are soliciting one
favour or another and even
demanding private information of
the contacts.
According to Oghre, he started
receiving calls from some of his
contacts as early as 7 a.m.
yesterday, to confirm the
authenticity of some mails they
received, purportedly from him.
He said: “I did not and I don’t
solicite favour or request for any
individual’s private information.
My email is purely for official work,
particularly to receive and send
news items to my editors for
publication. The general public to
please take note.”
