News reaching us from Nigeria has it that, a 17-year-old boy who is alleged to be a citizen of the United States Of America shot and killed himself after three Nigerian nationals got hold of his nudes and began blackmailing him with it. The news is fast going viral on Twitter after a user identified as @Mrczarr posted the news on his timeline.
“A 17-year-old turned a gun on himself & shot himself to death because 3 Nigerians executed a “scam format” on him, where they get his nude pictures & try to blackmail him. The US is coming for the 3 Nigerians to extradite them to a US prison & I am so happy. “Yahoo” is terrible”.
The said three teenagers involved in the blackmailing are “Yahoo” boys from Nigeria. Yahoo is a term used to describe people who engage in fraudulent acts like money laundering, romance scam, and other deceitful ways of making money in Nigeria. The news has generated a whole lot of comments and a few of them are been highlighted below;

“That particular "blackmailing" scam is like a pandemic now…. Little boys and GIRLS were as young as 16 now partake in it. That's why you now see secondary school
students with iPhone 14 and cars. This is terrible and look at the ages of the 3 Nigerians too”.

“Funny thing is that if someone else (another Nigerian or reaper as they're called) cheats the 3
Nigerians and everybody else would be against him, but
they don't consider how the person on the other
end feels. They should get anything that comes to
them, even if it is an execution”.

“The only problem for me here is US prison, which may be better than some of these Yahoo boys' houses…… They'd feed better…… They don't deserve that, they deserve Kirikiri”.

“In Southwest, Nigeria we have Islamic clerics endorsing Yahoo, how do you expect me to have regard for a person who looks up to such clerics, even if the person isn't a fraudster”.
