The arrest was made after the representative of one of the victims of the fraud, Unatrac Holdings Limited, filed a complaint to the authority.
The arrest of Invictus Group founder and one of Forbe’s 30 Entrepreneurs Under 30 to Watch’, became a trending issue after social media with political commentator, Tolu Ogunlesi tweeted about it with the caption:
“NEWS: The FBI is charging this young Nigerian ‘Entrepreneur’ with conspiracy to commit Computer Fraud & conspiracy to commit Wire Fraud. BEC stuff. Amount involved appears to be around ELEVEN MILLION US DOLLARS..”

See what Nigerians are saying about Obinwanne Okeke arrest by the FBI.
No #FreeInvictus hashtag for Invictus Obi? Oh wait, it's the FBI so y'all can't say shit.
If it was the EFCC y'all will be yelling "He's not our problem, leave young Nigerians alone, go after politicians, EFCC didn't investigate I'm sure, Buhari is useless"
Idiots you are!!

#Forbes is not a moral compass. Their work is to find out how much you're worth not how you made the money. Invictus Obi should face the wrath of the exposure.

We advised Nigerians to "live within your means". Instead of taking heed to this age-old wisdom, you said Invictus Obi is your role "model entrepreneur". Living within your means will keep you far out of trouble and give you peace of mind. This doesn't mean glorifying poverty!

I swear I have never heard about Invictus Obi. Just hearing his name for the first time.
Well, everyday for the thief, one day for the owner.

Imagine Invictus Obi wasn't ARRESTED.
I am sure he would have been writing a book titled "I WILL TEACH YOU BUSINESS" with fake motivations and fake business tips and success stories.
He would then come and do giveaway on Twitter and buy influencers to trend him.
