“These claims are false. They are scams.
“The Strategy of Deception,” it stated.
According to Obienyem, “A suspect recently apprehended for such activities confessed to security agencies that fraudsters deliberately exploit Peter Obi’s reputation for integrity. His name is used as a “trust magnet” to lure unsuspecting individuals into fraudulent financial commitments.
“Protect Yourself
“To safeguard your finances, please observe the following:
“Total Disassociation: Peter Obi is not affiliated with any online “doubling” schemes, crypto-investment platforms, or high-yield wealth programs.

“Exercise Vigilance: Any investment promising unrealistic returns while using his name or image should be treated as a criminal attempt to defraud you.
