I have just been scammed of some N800,000. It all started when I was introduced and linked to the scammer by a friend. He claimed he works at Canadian Embassy Abuja. He started demanding for money for visa fee, documentation fee, PTA/BTA fee, job approval fee. Before each payment, I sought for the guy that introduced him to me for advice an how well he know the man and he confirmed that the man is well known to him that i should make those payments. The man scammer later sent me an employment letter from a company in Malaysia, that the company opened a new office in Canada. I ran a check on the company, the address, phone nos and the CEO of the company and discovered that its a fake. When I called him to complain of my discoveries, he got angry and demanded for the payment of 300 dollars for job approval and tax. He doesn't pick my calls neither does he respond to my chats. When he finally pick the call I made from another number, I demanded for a refund of my money but he boasted that he will never refund or pick my calls again. The worst part is that I made all these payments to another persons account he provided.
Pls nairalanders, I need an advice on how to track him.
No insults please. Its an experience that can happen to anyone. Thanks.

I have checked his Facebook account but he doesn't chat there. Anyone that asked him question, he always replied "inbox me". So how do I use the Facebook?

I have done that but he claimed he has no hand in the deal. That he only introduced me to the scammer. The case is at the anti-fraud unit of Nigeria police.
