According to her, some young men who still appear to be living comfortably may simply be spending money they made and saved in the past.
She further claimed that others are now struggling with basic expenses, including rent, as they search for alternative ways to make money.
The influencer also directed part of her message at women dating men involved in internet fraud.
She urged them to encourage their partners to learn useful skills rather than pressure them to maintain an expensive lifestyle.
“If you are a girlfriend to a Yahoo boy encourage dat boy now to learn a skill,” she said.
She also advised young women against making expensive gifts and financial support from men their main expectation.
For young Nigerians considering internet fraud as a career, Mitchy had an even more direct warning.
“If you are watching my video as a young boy and you feel like, ‘Oh, as I grow up I’m going to become a Yahoo boy,’ don’t do it,” she said.
She suggested skills such as barbering, social media marketing, car sales, and real estate promotion as legitimate alternatives.
