At the close of the year 2021, Nigeria was arguably at the topmost position in the ladder of countries with the highest number of Scammers.

Analytics Insight, in 2021 gave Nigeria the topmost position and stated that "Nigeria employs a single strategy to deceive the unwary. Everyone has likely seen this someplace, whether in email or social media messages, where they will likely tell you an extravagant fake story about large sums of money in the banking system or a large inheritance that is challenging for them to access due to government limitations or taxes in their nation, and in the procedure, they will ask for your bank account details so that they can transfer the funds to you."


A TikToker with the handle @mahanlankarani listed the 10 countries with the most scammers. Placing Nigeria at the apex position, he stated, in so clear terms, that it was the country where all humans have won the lottery.

Six (6) months into the year 2022, with little or no positive changes in economic policies and willpower from the leaders of the country, it will be instructive to find out what position the country presently occupies in this distasteful list of scamming countries.
