According to our investigations, a Kiambu-based woman has defrauded Kenyans of millions after lying to them that she was in a position to link them to some jobs in Dubai.
Corrupt and dangerous, Anne Maina Wanjiku, also known by the alias Anita, is said to be behind a series of sophisticated scams targeting unsuspecting Kenyans across the country.
Operating primarily from Gathanga, Muchatha, and Ruaka in Kiambu County, the suspect is said to have lured multiple victims with false promises of employment opportunities in Dubai and manipulated others through personal relationships.
Multiple sources indicate that Wanjiku aggressively convinces victims to send money under the guise of urgent processing fees or travel expenses, only to sever contact or engage in erratic behaviour once payments are made.
She is alleged to be working in coordination with accomplices based in Pakistan, who assist in legitimising the fake job offers and scamming operations.
Victims describe a consistent pattern where once payments are received, Wanjiku reportedly becomes hostile, hurls insults, or vanishes entirely, making recovery of funds nearly impossible.
At least one report has been filed with police, with the primary victim stating a loss of over Ksh 800,000.
The case has already been reported at the Kiambu Police Station, where officers indicated that the suspect is currently outside the country.
The victim is now appealing to the public for any leads that could aid in tracing the suspect’s whereabouts, as police have confirmed that a red alert has been issued and she will be taken into custody immediately upon arrival in Kenya.
“Yes, she is a con. We are investigating several reports in which she is directly linked to fraud; she is dangerous, and I urge Kenyans to be careful and come out with reports that can lead to her arrest,” said a detective
