Headline: “Yahoo No Longer Pays, Tell Your Boyfriend to Learn a Skill” — King Mitchy Advises Young Nigerians

Nigerian content creator King Mitchy has advised young Nigerians against relying on internet fraud, popularly called “Yahoo,” as a means of making money.
In remarks circulated online, Mitchy questioned claims that young people are still making substantial money from internet fraud. She suggested that some people who appear financially comfortable may be spending money they earned or saved previously, rather than continuing to make large sums through fraud.
Mitchy specifically addressed women who may be dating men involved in internet fraud, urging them to encourage their partners to acquire legitimate skills instead of expecting them to maintain expensive lifestyles.
“Yahoo is no longer paying. Tell that your brother or your boyfriend to learn a skill…”
She also challenged young Nigerians who may be considering cybercrime as a future source of income, advising them not to pursue that path.
Skills she mentioned
According to reports on her remarks, Mitchy pointed young people toward legitimate income-generating activities including barbering, social media marketing, car sales and real-estate-related work.
Her broader message was that young people should focus on acquiring skills and developing sustainable sources of income rather than pursuing quick wealth through fraudulent activities.
Mitchy's statement that “Yahoo is no longer paying” is her claim, not an independently established fact that internet fraud has stopped generating money.
FACTFUL24 therefore attribute the assertion to her rather than present it as a verified economic fact.
The reports also show that her comments generated reactions online, with some social-media users challenging or questioning her assertion that people are no longer making money through Yahoo.
