Nigerian entertainer MC Monica sounded the alarm after millions of naira reportedly vanished from his bank account following what he believed was a legitimate Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) traffic fine payment.
In a video and screenshots posted to his Instagram page on September 17, 2026, MC Monica described receiving an SMS the day before, alerting him to a road traffic offence.

He clicked the link in the message, paid a ₦5,000 fine, and thought nothing of it until he woke up to find his account had been gutted.
Bank records shown in his post included a "WEB Buy" debit of approximately ₦1.85 million alongside several other unauthorised transfers.
MC Monica said he was uncertain whether to hold his service provider or road safety officials responsible.
"Omoh 💔💔💔💔 which kind Wahala be this way I enter so @frscnigeria how did my data get to this people please," he wrote alongside the first post.
In a follow-up post showing the full scale of the debits, he added:
"Like this I don loose all my money 🙆♀️🙆♀️"
How the fake FRSC link scam worked on MC Monica
The SMS messages he received appeared to impersonate FRSC, warning him of a new road traffic offence record and an electronic traffic violation ticket requiring prompt payment.
The links contained in those messages pointed to domains such as frscgov.top/ng, which Legit.ng confirmed bear no connection to any verified government channel.
Security-conscious commenters were quick to flag this as a phishing attack, where fraudsters craft convincing messages to harvest banking details.
According to one commenter, FRSC had already issued a public warning about this particular scam a day earlier.
