A Nigerian man has labeled the EFCC car auction a scam and an inside job after a suspicious bid of N350 billion was allegedly placed for a Lexus RX 350 Jeep on the commission’s website. According to a post shared on X, the man claimed that an unknown individual successfully bid N350 billion for the vehicle. He accused the EFCC of orchestrating a rigged auction, allowing such a large sum to be paid for a Lexus RX 350 Jeep. The man suggested that the EFCC’s actions were intentional, aimed at favoring certain individuals by manipulating the auction.
In his statement, he expressed outrage: “The auction you conducted yesterday was a sham! In a bid to rig the system, the incompetent auctioneers you engaged allowed a bid of N350,000,000,000 for a Lexus RX 350 Jeep. It’s not a glitch. It’s a deliberate attempt to gate-keep others from bidding.”
He added, “The outrageous bid is a well-calculated attempt to rig out potential buyers. The highest bidder (N350bn) will refuse to pay, and then the auctioneers/EFCC will contact the second-highest bidder (an insider) to pay.”
