Two students of the University of Calabar, UNICAL in Cross River state, have been arrested by operatives of the Nigeria police command over Internet scam. According to reports, the students were arrested for duping three clients to the tune of N400,000 after parading themselves on their Facebook pages as Colonel and Major of the Nigerian Army and promising to secure recruitment into the force for their clients.

The suspects who reportedly said they wanted to buy iPhones before the December celebration, blamed the devil for the act.
