His trick is simple – find a person selling a high-end second-hand phone and then call him or her expressing interest in the advertised phone.

Ken Ngubiah was called by the suspect on Friday 28th October 2022 after he advertised his Samsung Note 9 on Jiji.

They met at Yaya Centre to seal the deal.

After the meeting, the suspect told the seller to give him the phone so that he can test it.

Upon checking the iPhone that he had left, he found out that it was fake.

He reported the matter at Kilimani Police Station.

After the victim posted CCTV images of the smartly dressed con man, several other people also confessed that they have been conned by the same suspect using the same trick.

The suspect is always smartly dressed and talks big’.
