Nigeria has deported 102 foreign nationals, including 60 Chinese and 39 Filipinos, who were convicted of "cyber-terrorism and internet fraud." More deportations are expected in the coming days, stemming from a large-scale operation last December.

• A total of 792 suspected cybercriminals were arrested in Lagos last December, with 192 being foreign nationals.
• The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) is the anti-corruption agency responsible for the deportations.
• Foreign cybercrime syndicates are reportedly setting up operations in Nigeria, exploiting its weak cybersecurity systems and recruiting local accomplices for phishing scams primarily targeting victims in America, Canada, Mexico, and Europe.
