What's the essence of BVN and SIM registration if people are still being scanned through account and phones? But OP, you were gullible. The media is your solution, police might not be helpful. The money in question is small. Only media embarrassment will make the thief pay. |

I was nearly scammed with this method last year, but for God and discerning spirit. Infact it was on NL I saw the advert for the same School of Nursing and becos I was desperate then, I almost fell into their traps. It was just one person pretending to be two persons, but God catch am for me. At the end of our discussion I told him never to bother about the form. He pressured me for the money, but I didn't fall for it. |

Confusedsoul, When it comes to money and business , one can neither be too careful nor too diligent. Always conduct your research. It doesn't cost much. One can always use the Internet. The following tips would have come in handy in your case: There are so many red flags that you failed to see: e.g.: .The website . Manner of communication, e.g back and forth on whatsapp is a clear red flag .the fact you had to call when at the bank .the subtle but clear nudging by the scammers . the use of a personal account instead of the school's corporate account Next time be sure to: 1. Investigate the website. Make sure it is the legitimate one. 2. Insist the persons verify their identifies. 3. Ensure you ask for a corporate bank account 4. Use the cool off period method. Give yourself at least 24 hours to cool off before deciding whether you make the payment. Within this period, observe the other party. If he calls or sends you messages, then there is a higher chance that it is bad for business 5. Speak with other people around you to find out if anyone has had dealings with such people 6. Use nairaland. Post an inquiry to seek people's opinion first. ( I will write a detailed thread on this topic soon) Your possible solutions: . File police report first . Report at the bank with the police report. You may get your money. But it does take a lot of time . Report the issue to the school in question . Report to EFCC: use this information: info[at]efccnigeria.org. Hot Line 1: +234 9 9044752 , Hot Line 2: +234 9 9044753 Hope this helps. Cheers 5 Likes |

ALAYORMII:Bad advice. It is her civic duty to report the matter to the Police. It is the duty of the Police to give her a report without asking for bribe. Let her do her part.... the Police are expected to do theirs.... you shouldn't be saying they wouldn't....because they didn't for you. Sooo many people have been scammed that it is more likely the very Police or someone close to them was also scammed. ... and to give them the information of a scammer may even have them thanking her for coming forward . Then it would be woe onto Mr Fraudster. Let her do her part. |

Originalsly: Let Mii tell you two short stories I heard the case of a man who took a pickpocket to the Police station and the Police officers at the station asked him to leave the money the pickpocket stole as evidence, before he was allowed to go he had to part with some money. Another story A guy's bike was stolen and he went to the Police station to make a report and the Police officer that attended to him asked him to pay 5k before he can be allowed to write a statement |

ALAYORMII:Did you ever hear of any case where the police took action? If not... this may be your first. You heard of two cases only.... heard of.... not knowing whether they be truth or lies... but this was enough for you to discourage anyone internationally.... worldwide.... from reporting any matter to the Nigerian Police. Isn't there something wrong with this picture? |
Re: Ijebu School Nursing Form: How I Got Scammed by ALAYORMII: 7:04pm On Jan 22, 2017 |
Originalsly: I was physically present at one There was a time I was walking and some policemen accosted Mii and some other people, we were pushed inside a bus and taken to their station. On getting to the station, they asked us to bring all the money on us or we will be locked up. Nigerian police is a no go area for Mii |
Re: Ijebu School Nursing Form: How I Got Scammed by Originalsly: 7:28pm On Jan 22, 2017 |
ALAYORMII:We need to blame ourselves for allowing this to happen...why?... because we do nothing about it. What can we do?...use social media... this is the the 21st century. We have phones with camera.... snap pictures... post on social media.... you will see changes. Haven't people posted before?...Police demanding bribes?...and the Police being fired? Op is an example of doing something about it..m bringing her problem to social media.... see how much not only she... but us have learned on what actions we can take to locate the fraudsters? We need to act and not throw up our arms in defeat. ... but yet we can talk about order and progress in other countries while closing our eyes to how it came about. |
