The Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) has nabbed two Kenyans accused of masterminding a Ksh22 million edible oil scam that defrauded five businessmen.
The two were arraigned in court on Wednesday, March 12.
It was revealed that their con job began in January 2024, when one of the scammers lured unsuspecting businessmen operating in City Market with a deal that was too good to turn down.
In the scam, one of the fraudsters claimed that his female accomplice had acquired a lucrative tender with the World Food Program (WFP) to supply edible oil to the Kakuma Refugee Camp.
