What you need to know
EFCC reporting preparation: investigations are only as effective as the evidence provided. Transaction reference numbers allow bank-to-bank trace. Screenshots of communications show the fraud mechanism. Fraudster account details are the most actionable lead. A complete chronological narrative helps investigators understand the scheme. Pre-organising this information before reporting accelerates the investigation significantly.
