Adesokan Emmanuel, also known as Shank Comics, is a well-known comedian who claims to have given up online fraud after failing to profit from one despite having studied it for six months.
He claimed that his trainer had urged him to give up because he had failed at fraud.
According to Emmanuel, his trainer offered him an iPhone 6 and pleaded with him to go home.
In a recent episode of the 9jafathemousfaces podcast, the comedy star revealed this.
When I finished in 2019, I went to Oshogbo to study about Yahoo [internet fraud], according to Shank. I didn’t withdraw $100 for around six months, not even N5.
Even the person who was instructing me encouraged me to stop and return home. I left after receiving an iPhone 6 from him.
“My father used to yell, ‘You graduated with a 2.2 from the engineering department,’ and other such things. That moment didn’t ruin my life. I’ve just started to drink and act.
