A Nigerian Lady, Roseline Ajesola Arrested in North Carolina Over Alleged Fraud Case

A Nigerian-American woman, Roseline Iyewande Ajesola, popularly known in Lagos social circles, has been arrested in Wake County, North Carolina, in connection with an alleged fraud involving over $247,000.

According to reports from the Morrisville Police Department, Ajesola, who is based in Katy, Texas, is accused of presenting herself as a financial broker and convincing a victim to send large sums of money to a bank account under her control. Authorities say the funds were later transferred to another individual.

Arrest records show that she is facing four felony charges of obtaining property under false pretence, which is classified as a Class C felony under North Carolina law. Investigators listed four separate money transfers linked to the case — $52,000, $130,000, $60,000, and $5,000 — all said to have taken place on February 26, 2025.

The case has gained significant attention on social media following the circulation of her mugshot, while investigations into the matter are still ongoing.
