Delhi Police have arrested a Nigerian man accused of impersonating a UK-based Korean businessman to defraud over 100 women through a language exchange app.
A 29-year-old Nigerian national identified as Stephane, alias K Cee Dominic, has been arrested in Tilak Nagar, West Delhi, for allegedly duping over 100 women across India through a language exchange app. According to Hindustan Times, he posed as a UK-based Korean jewelry businessman named Duck Young to lure unsuspecting victims.
Deputy Commissioner of Police (Shahdara) Prashant Gautam said, “The accused would claim to be stranded at immigration with large-value cheques or documents pending clearance. Meanwhile, his associates would impersonate officials over phone calls and demand money, which the victim would transfer digitally.”
The scam was exposed after a woman named Anjali filed a complaint on September 24, alleging she lost ₹48,500 after Dominic claimed he was detained at Mumbai airport. Investigators traced him through call records, bank details and social media.
Police recovered a mobile phone containing fake profiles and chats with over 100 women.
