Notorious Wakiso Land Grabber Charles Kyagaba Sentenced to 8 Years in Prison
The High Court Criminal Division has today sentenced notorious land grabber Charles Kyagaba to a total of eight years’ imprisonment on two counts of obtaining money by false pretences, with each count carrying a sentence of four years to be served consecutively.

Kyagaba, together with others still at large, had for years terrorised residents of Wakiso District, especially in Entebbe, by fraudulently claiming ownership of their properties and selling them to unsuspecting victims.

Fake giveaways are increasingly being used to steal WhatsApp accounts, drain mobile money, and commit identity theft.

Children and teens are often the main targets because they act fast and trust big prizes without verifying.

Remember: if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

Pause. Verify. Then Decide.

BUSINESS MAN REMANDED OVER UGX 13BILLION GOLD SCAM!

@AntiGraft_SH working together with @CID1_UG and @ODPPUGANDA, has arraigned businessman Muhammad Ali before the Makindye Magistrates Court on charges of Theft and Cheating. He has been remanded until 5th May 2026.

Between September and October 2025, Muhammad Ali while working as a manager at Duck Hunters Security Company, and others still at large, allegedly stole and cheated Dubai-based investors of USD 3.5 million (approximately UGX13 billion) in fake gold transactions .

The investors had travelled to Uganda seeking gold suppliers and were introduced to different suppliers by Muhammad. The investors went ahead to initially buy 10kgs of gold at USD700,000 from one of the companies, Spanex Ltd .

Muhammad later lured the investors to enter into another transaction to purchase 30kg of gold from a purported Military Officer at USD 2.4Million .

Upon purchase of the 30kgs of gold, they got it tested at Azzura Refinery and thereafter took it to Duck Hunters Security Company for storage, pending exportation to Dubai. However, the consignment disappeared, prompting the investors to return to Uganda only to realise they had been defrauded.

Investigations into the various gold exporting companies and possible Military involvement are on-going to arrest those involved in the scam.

Be Aalert!🛑

[Mary Bint @MaryNaturinda_]

. @Airtel_Ug I mistakenly sent 100k to a number that is out of service, when I tried to reverse the transaction it failed, when I called your call center, I didn’t get help, they claimed the “funds were utilized” the previous owner of the number lost it last year in November and it’s inactive and hasn’t been reassigned because it’s still in his names.. so how do you say the funds were utilized? I know 100k seems like very little but I can’t imagine how many people you’re thugging that way.

While we probe high-level graft, protect everyday Ugandans from digital thieves. Stronger cybersecurity, awareness, & enforcement needed. Billions recovered from some tax scams before, but victims still suffer. Let's build a Uganda safe from all corruption — physical & online.

[DiSAA Africa @DisaaOrg]

As Uganda cracks down on corruption (e.g. probes into past parliamentary excesses), we must also tackle the online scams bleeding our people dry. Billions lost yearly to cyber fraud, mobile money scams & fake investments, Shs72B+ in 2024 alone.

[DiSAA Africa @DisaaOrg]

Recall: Ugandans lost millions in Malaysian 'business' scams (2022, Shs10B+ in north alone @observerug https://t.co/YNoMRfU4cb ). Forex trading scams drained billions earlier (2019 reports). Banking cyber losses hit Shs40B in one year. Total fraud/corruption? Experts say Shs3.6T+
