ENGLISH TRANSLATION
The end of the year is near, this is the time that fraudsters (419) are on the loose, by stealing from the people or the community by fraudulent means. Yoruba culture of old was to promote and honour people of integrity and those who are successful through hard work.
According to Yoruba adage that said “Your child is not a washman, but brought home loads of clothes, here comes the thief”, many parents would not ask their children for their source of livelihood, because internet fraudsters and politicians bring home what does not belong to them. Modern day’s culture promotes thieves and fraudsters. As a result of this, “get rich quick syndrome” are on the increase among the highs and lows in the society. Religion and politics has become the easiest way of “quick riches/wealth”. Many students of higher institutions that are not from privileged background, have turned to internet fraud instead of armed robbery.
In the olden days, as the yuletide period is approaching, there were usually increase in armed robbery, but nowadays, fraudulent act or internet fraud known as “419” has become more prevalent. Internet fraud had begun for a while, but it is usually on the increase towards this period of the year as fraudsters circulate thousands of email to people all over the world in order to reap where they did not sow. Unsuspecting people can easily fall prey, as a result people should be wary of fake email from banks or unsolicited mails.
