Officers of the Delta State Police Command have arrested some suspected fraudsters with fake 1,600 Dollar bills in a Delta community.

The Police Public Relations Officer for the Command, SP Bright Edafe, disclosed this in a signed statement, copies of which were made available to journalists in Warri on Thursday.

Edafe stated, “On June 9, 2026, operatives of the Special Anti-Kidnapping Unit, acting on credible intelligence, commenced surveillance on a five-man syndicate reportedly involved in defrauding unsuspecting members of the public using counterfeit United States dollar bills while operating in a red unregistered Mercedes-Benz GLK SUV.

“The intelligence-driven operation led to the arrest of four suspects identified as Joshua Nwaosa, Daniel Arhewe, Prince Chukwuma, and John Egwuba along Nnebisi Road, Asaba.
