Dear Friend
I just have to write a heart felt article the fact that there are some scammers does not mean everyone who post an advert lets say in the advert section means the person is a scammer. I posted something here in nairaland and somebody who has not even done business with me started calling me a scammer. I could remember when i open a post here in nairaland and someone was calling the op a scammer and two nairalanders quickly replied that the person is not a scammer that the person accusing is fond of accusing people falsely. Let say that this new thread of accusing people wrongly is making many nairalanders here loose quality information that could change their like for better. Nairaland is a social platform and in social platforms people can benefit from one another please let allow nairalanders to benefit from Genuine Persons. Imagine somebody calling Akin Alabi, Patrick Ogidi, Kingsley Ogbiti thats me and some genuine business men and woman scammers. Please if you see an offer when in doubt do what somebody did on nairaland the person asked who knows Onome Maureen and i replied the post that the person should go ahead and do business with Onome the reason is because i know Onome as a trusted online business woman and the person has not posted till date that Onome ran with any money. When in doubt ask do your research look if the people is on facebook send the person a request once they accept go to their friends list and ask one of friends about the person if the person has more than 5,000 friends look for the person page and ask. In addition when not satisfied or convinced about the person don't do business with person instead of spoiling people's name.

It's as simple as that!

neksummi: It's as simple as that!

Yes ooo it is as simple as that

Don't you think it a scarcity mindset thing where people don't understand that business is a win-win thing. I have had people coming to me with a mind of win-lose or lose-win. In reality, it is only charity organization that operates that way. Life and business is a win-win and the right approach makes a decent transaction. Furthermore, both sides leaves happy because both won and not the other way.
Secondly, people should learn to do their due diligence on the person or company they are having transactions with. Call the person, ask him questions, test his knowledge, test his integrity, ask for part payment, get residing location,reason with him, speak with him for longer period, understand his mindset before effecting payments.
Let me also remind people that internet is for people and people makes up the internet. The essence of the internet to business is irreplacable. It is mean't to be leveraged on to reach more people and pass knowledge and Information. Nobody should defame another without facts and concrete evidences to back it up. Let no one display his frustration and weakness on decent minds. Abudant and great mindsets don't think that way. They believe opportunities are everywhere and in everytime. one love. Have a nice day.

Nice write uo

Mods why are the comments hidden the info would have benefitted other nairalanders

This is serious.

Actually, am an information marketer and posting free ads here on Nairaland is a mess. I haven't try it for once because my level is above free ads.

As an expericenced info marketer and mentor of many, I advise you never to post ads here to avoid the unknown.

If you need traffic pay for it by placing ad on other sites and you will see the return.

Although adverts are costly but if your productm is what people needs you will blow.

Don't ask for my name.

@op, you could try www.naijadealer.com, it's a new site with escrow assurance for both buyers and sellers.

You're doing a great service. Now ppl should be able to transact online without fear of getting burnt. Your idea and service is a timely intervention.

Thanks for the plug sir. The word is getting out gradually.
