He befriended them on Facebook pausing as a white man from USA or United Kingdom!
The scammer targeted married women!
Because some married women are bored, turned out to be perfect victims and the return on the blackmail was almost immediate!
They deposited the money in his bank account.
A video has gone viral of a victim who sent erotic videos to a “whiteman” in return for Iphones and online clothes shopping!
In the video appearing like it was shot in the kids bedroom, the baby can be heard in the background as she fingered p*ssy and herself!
Offcourse she turned out to be a victim and the white scammer was a boy from local college who Police named as Joel Sikaneta.
So far he has scammed seven women and blackmailed them threatening to expose their videos to their husbands.
Another unknown number of suspects have chosen not to come forward.
From what we have seen;
Here is how he played the game; befriend the “happily married” woman, promise her things including trips, expensive Phones and clothes and Western Union money!
Then the messages would be “discovered” by the white man’s spouse who would then threaten to expose her!
Then the spouse would say she has a nephew in Zambia who the victim wife should pay and Account details forwarded (Joel Sikaneta’s)
It’s unknown yet how much he collected and how many victims are out there!!
Below was the report
Smart thief of the year!Police arrest Facebook fraudster
“He pretended to be a whiteman and crooked girls, and most married women sent their naked pictures then he would blackmail them”
LUSAKA, 4TH JANUARY, 2018- Police in Lusaka have arrested a male adult identified as Joel Sikaneta aged 24 of Chowa Township in Kabwe for Extortion and Possession of Obscene Materials.
The suspect is believed to have between June and December, 2017 swindled seven (07) females using nine fake facebook accounts opened in different names.
The accused person would pretend to be a white man, initiate an intimate relationship with unsuspecting females on face book after befriending them and promise to send them money in dollars and buy them cars.
He would begin by sending nude pictures for a white man on pretext that they were his and would later entice women to also send their nude pictures to him. He would thereafter use another account purporting to be a wife to the white man claiming to have discovered conversations and nude pictures in her husband’s facebook account.
She would then begin demanding for money from victims and threatening to publish nude pictures if they did not comply. When the victims plead for leniency, the purported wife would link them to either her brother or spiritual father here in Zambia who would give them an account number in which to deposit the money.
Several women including married women fell victim and ended up depositing money for fear of being embarrassed.
The suspect is currently detained in Police custody and will appear in court soon.
