Transactions above 500k can get you into trouble – Delta police PRO warns POS operators as he parades woman who received N4m ransom for kidnappers
The spokesperson for the Delta State Police Command, SP Bright Edafe, has warned Point of Sale (POS) operators to desist from transacting large sums of money to anyone as they run the risk of being held as accomplices to kidnappers.
The PPRO gave the warning in a post on Thursday, October 17, 2024, when he paraded a female POS operator who allegedly received N4m ransom on behalf of kidnappers.
“My message to POS operators, transactions above 500k can get you into trouble. Don’t be a tool for kidnappers to collect ransom. It must be traced to you. She received #4,000,000 ransom from kidnappers and her profit was just #40,000. Can you imagine? Be wise, you may argue that you are doing business, but before your lawyer will get you out, you may spend sometimes cooling off in prison,” he wrote.
