The Nigeria Police there advised both Nigerians and Foreigners alike not to allow themselves to be deceived into parting with their hard-earned money.

Any individual or organization that does so, does it at their own expense and risk.
“Meanwhile, the Force has commenced investigations into circumstances surrounding the purported claims and publication,” the Nigeria Police said.
