The Spokesperson for the commission, Dele Oyewale, said this in a statement on Wednesday in Abuja.
Oyewale said they were arrested in their hideouts in Iwofe and Ogboro areas of Port Harcourt in a sting operation, based on credible intelligence on their suspected involvement in internet fraud.
“Items recovered from the suspects include various mobile phone devices, laptops, boxes of fake United States Dollar and fake Federal Bureau of Investigation(FBI) stamps.
“Others are fake Customs stamps, airport clearance stamps, DHL and FedEx stamps and two cars.
