Lol! You're so fast!

Oniovo, it's necessary o. You don't know who will fall for it next.Yahoo boys should stop scamming homeboys. It's badddddd!

They are scammers that can get random details. You were one of the random candidates. To get some few details online i can just visit jamb office and input a random jamb reg no. To get further info on the number

I'm telling you. Funniest thing is, they might have been raking in the money before the OP brought it to the fore. So glad you reported the site already.

na this kind scam I dey like


these guys are fucking tech savvy

Not all 'oil companies' are actually Oil Companies... there are palm kernel company, palm oil company, palm wine company, oilseed company, etc...OP, which one are you talking about? definitely the later ones.

[quote author=dapyd1 post=54844396]I received a text this afternoon from Como oil and gas, that I have been shortlisted for an interview. I was to log in with my details (matriculation or JAMB registration number).
I was curious because;

1. I haven't heard of the company before

2. I didn't submit an application there.

3. They telling me to log in with my details actually means they have my details.

So, I did two things, I 'googled' Como oil and gas and I went to the site as stated in the text.

The first research showed that Como oil and gas actually exists, but in Florida. There was no evidence whatsoever, at least online, to show they have any presence in Nigeria.

When I got to the site, I saw a link for Job vacancy, I clicked and it took me to a page where I will put in my details. I imputed my matriculation number and to my amazement, it brought out my details including my full name, state of origin, JAMB registration number, phone number and my matriculation number.

I was also asked to pay N1000 through any online media, of course no reputable company will ask you to pay for an interview, so I registered it as a scam in my head.

The question now is, how did they get my details? The first two can be gotten through my social media accounts but my JAMB registration number and matriculation number are neither on my CV nor my social media accounts.

Has anyone ever had an experience like this? It will make it easier for people to fall once they see their 'private' details. Or does anyone know anything about Como?

Thanks.

Evidences below. [/quoTE]

someone got his hands on the database of Your University,

Created a shoddy website and linked it to the proxy database with your details, now many will fall prey and the dude, will buy new cars, sleep with Hoes and merry for many Fridays, because many are ill informed, Gullible and looking for the quickest way to success!

Don't fall Prey Dude!

I was once told I have an inheritance of 50 million Us Dollars! The person had some close details about me but the give away was that the said Uncle leaves in the US and that i was his only surviving relative . I no get anybody der. Guy na scam ok

Big time scam. Any employer or recruiter asking you for money is a scam.

Absolutlely, its a scam. Let me also help you by pointing this out: the florida company is called "como oil and propane" not "como oil and gas". Its only in nigeria you see the term "oil and gas" commonly used with a company name, so the website is a scam.

haha you guys are asking how?? ok how does those con artist get your digits and then text you that your atm card has ish and you should dial a specific number to sort it out whenever you make a withdrawal on your bank acct.

Guy......no try am .... Its a plot to steal your card details...... It's not about the 1k....

Lord have mercy. I also got a text from this idiots yesterday afternoon and i was like huh The funny thing is that my classmates details are there as well. Everything correct and accurate. Gosh! This is another level of scamming which some people may fall pry to.

this site was registered less than a week ago. Shine your eyes.

I saw the message too and immediately knew it was a scam. So I made sure I found out which platform they were using for their online payment (VoguePay), sent an email to them so others are not defrauded. Scammers have now moved to a new level in this country. It's possible they also got the details from NYSC, cos I know those guys have no security or from a NYSC mobilization list posted online by your school which has all your details including phone no. (Cos my sch posted the list on their website).

Pure scam....
