Wednesday, April 22,
2026 - Social media commentator, Maverick Otieno, has accused a woman
identified as Linet Osiko, also known as Linet Mwangi, of being involved in a
“wash wash” fraud scheme targeting unsuspecting individuals.
Linet is said to have misled her victims by claiming that she
had strong connections to influential figures in the country, including members
of the Gideon Moi family, Deputy Inspector General Lagat, and other powerful
personalities.
She used these claims to convince targets that she was
untouchable and could not be arrested by any authority.
One victim, identified as Joe, is reported to have sent her
Ksh 100,000 on November 26th, 2025, after being promised access to
lucrative business opportunities.
The two knew each other beforehand, with Joe believing he
was investing in a legitimate venture.
Linet presented herself as a mineral trader dealing in
gemstones and mercury across Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda and Zambia.
She vanished after receiving the money, leaving the victim
stranded and unable to recover his funds.
