The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) is the Nigerian agency tasked with investigating financial crimes, notably advance fee fraud — commonly called 419 scams — and money laundering. It was set up in 2003, partly in response to pressure from the Financial Action Task Force on Money Laundering (FATF), which named Nigeria among 23 countries judged non-cooperative in the global campaign against money laundering. The commission’s headquarters are in Abuja.
