Nigerian singer and activist, Charly Boy, has opened up about his past involvement in bank scams, admitting to engaging in fraudulent activities even before the infamous 419 (fraud) became widely known.

In a candid interview with the Honest Bunch podcast, Charly Boy reflected on his past and shared details about his involvement in illegal activities during his younger years.

When asked about the worst thing he had ever done, Charly Boy confessed, “I used to be a thief. I was scamming banks. Even before una begin to hear of 419, I don do small.”
