Yinka, 33, travelled to America to find out more about she could how to hire out a hitman.

She was left lost for words to find out just how many people had done exactly that as there was one in nearly every state.

But Yinka was even more shocked at something else - how "easy" it is for them to find you.

Yina told : "The fact the website was so easy for me to access, and it didn’t take that much brain power, was really scary.

"We tag locations, we post live stories, and people know where you are. We are trackable by our own doing through apps like Instagram, Snapchat, and Twitter.

"Before I attended, I went to a cyber school to see how much information was about me, but as an average person, you don’t think about this.

"You don’t think about taking pictures in your house, or on the street."

Another thing that left her feeling uneasy was the reasons WHY people decided to hire out a hitman.

She added: "One of the major things that took me by surprise was how long people can be angry for.

"It’s one thing to be p****d off at your neighbour, but to actually order a hit out at someone, and they still follow up that information to carry it out."

Yesterday Yinka appeared on This Morning to talk about the docu-series.

She shared one of the most shocking requests she found with Holly Willoughby and Philip Schofield.

Yinka said: "One of the most outrageous reasons I saw was this 17-year-old in American who wanted a hit put out on his pregnant lover.

"They were scorned lovers, there were disgruntled coworkers, angry neighbours, and there were partners had had enough."

She added: "We know hitmen are real, but it's impossible to know how many of these websites exist on the dark web, because they don't keep any tabs. 

"It's impossible to know how many hits are successful because you're not  going to hear about them and also, the people who are using these sites, unless they make mistakes, they are anonymous."
