South African police are handing over six Nigerian nationals wanted in the United States for alleged online romance fraud to FBI agents on Friday. The group, believed to be members of the Black Axe syndicate, was arrested in Cape Town in 2021 and accused of defrauding more than 100 women of over $6 million.
Extradition Process Underway in Cape Town
The six suspects will be transported from a correctional facility in Cape Town to Cape Town International Airport, where they will be handed over to officials from the FBI and the United States Secret Service. Hawks spokesperson Colonel Katlego Mogale confirmed the handover is taking place in collaboration with Interpol South Africa.
US and South African authorities have not yet named the individuals being extradited. Upon arrival in the United States, the men will face federal charges of wire fraud and money laundering related to their alleged involvement in the criminal network.
Black Axe: A Global Cybercrime Network
Black Axe is a shadowy criminal network known for its extreme violence and operations across Africa, Europe and North America. What began as a Nigerian student fraternity has evolved into one of the most far-reaching organised crime groups in the world, according to a 2021 BBC Eye investigation.
FBI operations against the syndicate were launched in November 2019 and September 2021, eventually charging more than 35 individuals with multi-million-dollar internet fraud. The group is among criminal organisations responsible for a significant share of the world's cyber-enabled financial fraud, typically through romance, cryptocurrency and investment scams.
Wider Interpol Operations Targeting Romance Scams
The extradition comes amid a broader crackdown on romance and investment scams. Last month, Interpol said during its latest operation between November 2025 and June 2026, seven sites in South Africa linked to a syndicate involved in romance and investment scams were raided, leading to the arrests of 39 people and the blocking of more than 250 bank accounts.
In a separate operation targeting west African organised crime groups, Interpol led to the arrest of 58 people and the identification of 263 suspects linked to various criminal networks. In South Africa, authorities raided seven locations in Johannesburg linked to a syndicate that ran romance and investment scams targeting retirees in English-speaking countries, seizing $2.67 million.
