Beware Of Scammers In Computer Village(see) by Marvell23(m): 7:22am On Apr 27, 2016 |
I am writing this to inform the unsuspecting public about the fraudulent activities of some phone dealers in Ikeja. If you have it in mind to buy any phone from computer village always patronize well-known dealers, don't buy from road side sellers or sellers that you feel are not genuine. Most times they won't give you receipt! Run for your life Yesterday I read here in on nairaland that one person went to buy the TECNO Boom J8 but the free headphones that came with it has been removed. He was even lucky as many after buying the device of their choice, they got home to discover what was inside the package was fufu. It's may be funny but very true Finally don't go to computer Village on Sunday with the mind of buying any phone. Be warned. Pls Obinoscopy help move to FP, so that the public will be informed about this. 1 Like |

greenhulk:Honestly this write up is very helpful to me because I am kind of new in nairaland. The fact that you already know about this doesn't mean everybody knows about it. In fact I am hearing for the first time that it's safe to buy phone on Sunday in Computer village. Let others learn too from this 4 Likes |

I'd rather buy from an authorized seller. |
Re: Beware Of Scammers In Computer Village(see) by TrollinStone: 2:03pm On Apr 27, 2016 |
Thats y ppl shld know what they are going for b4 getting there. If ur guy didnt know that the J8 came with headset he wont realise anything was wrong. As for not going there on Sunday, whats up w that?? |
Re: Beware Of Scammers In Computer Village(see) by Damiandark01: 3:14pm On Apr 27, 2016 |
Computer village is very tricky. Just go to shops you can recognize. If not ehn or better still go with someone. |

Re: Beware Of Scammers In Computer Village(see) by TohKunBoh: 8:33pm On Apr 27, 2016 |
Why would someone buy a phone and you wont know whwhat you went to buy there...is that even possible at all? Who doesn't know that the tecno boom j8 came with a free headphone? |
Re: Beware Of Scammers In Computer Village(see) by Cliveglobal1(m): 10:38pm On Apr 27, 2016 |
OP, Thanks for Clearing the Air. Atleast people who want to Purchase the Phone would Know Better. |

Re: Beware Of Scammers In Computer Village(see) by winnijaf(f): 6:38am On Apr 28, 2016 |
The fault is from those who don’t make Prior investigation before going to Purchase a phone. The Boom J8 is actually know for its Headsets, So why would people go ahead and purchase a phone without the Headsets? |
Re: Beware Of Scammers In Computer Village(see) by Nwokoji1: 6:42am On Apr 28, 2016 |
winnijaf: Exactly, Information is Power. Thank God for Sites Like Nairaland. |
Re: Beware Of Scammers In Computer Village(see) by winnijaf(f): 7:49am On Apr 28, 2016 |
Nwokoji1: Yeah, Atleast people who intend going to get the Boom J8 would know better and Expect to see the headsets together with the Phone. |

Q Damiandark01: This is what I always advice people, they should get their phones from confirmed and accredited retail shops and not quacks. |
Re: Beware Of Scammers In Computer Village(see) by Cliveglobal1(m): 8:42am On Apr 28, 2016 |
Oladipupo22: Some Agencies should be in Place to check these activities of Criminals, They are giving the Phone company a bad name with their Sharp Practises. |
Re: Beware Of Scammers In Computer Village(see) by kick(f): 9:39am On Apr 28, 2016 |
I buy my devices from slot ng. its branches are nation wide. Why will I go to computer village to buy devices. I will advice people not to go there since the authorities and unions in computer village don't want to do anything about 419ners and the fraudulent transactions happening in computer village. Brand new devices are cheaper in slot compared to computer village. |
Re: Beware Of Scammers In Computer Village(see) by tymajek: 11:17am On Apr 28, 2016 |
This so true. One road side dealer once offered to sell me an IPhone 6 for 9k. Can you imagine that? |
Re: Beware Of Scammers In Computer Village(see) by Cdave: 12:09pm On Apr 28, 2016 |
This thread should be for those people that like buying London used phones....... |
