A foreign investor has exposed two men he claims attempted to defraud him through a fake government tender deal worth 645,000 Euros (approximately KSh92 million).
The investor narrated how one of the alleged fraudsters approached him through LinkedIn, claiming to have influential connections within the Office of the Deputy President.
The man reportedly dangled a lucrative government tender, making the foreign investor believe he had landed a golden opportunity to secure a multi-million-shilling business deal in Kenya.
However, the deal took a suspicious turn when the two men allegedly sent him a pre-qualification form and demanded USD 1,000 to facilitate the tender application process.
The unusual payment demand immediately raised red flags, prompting the investor to question the authenticity of the purported government deal.
Instead of falling for the trick, he pulled out of the arrangement and decided to expose the alleged fraudsters by sharing his experience online.
