The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has enlisted the services of social media influencer Adedamola Adewale, also known as Ade Herself, who is currently on trial for a N7.9 million fraud case.
Ade Herself, who was arrested by the EFCC in June 2020 during a raid for her alleged involvement in internet fraud, was asked to sensitize National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) members about the risks associated with cybercrime.

The EFCC alleged that she and her accomplices attempted to defraud an individual of $6,000 by falsely claiming it was for passport and visa procurement and tax payment.
The commission also claimed that Ade Herself retained N7.9 million in proceeds from cybercrime in her bank account.
However, the EFCC said the defendant was now a stakeholder in the anti-graft war and further engaged her to admonish corps members to shun cybercrime.
The EFCC in a post shared via its Twitter page on Friday, September 1, said Ade Herself served as a speaker during a sensitization program organized by the commission at the NYSC orientation camp in Iyana Ipaja, Lagos.
During her session with the corps members, Adeherself, who is also a model, encouraged them to stay away from criminal activities and provided insights into achieving success as young adults through ethical internet usage.
