if d man is serious about getting you a job then let him get it and you pay him after collecting your first month salary @ an agreed %
he may connive with a friend some where and actually get u a job...and after a week on the job,u may get fired for one stupid reason.
so tell me,did he violate the terms of the agreement...
he may look genuine as they always do....
my advice...dont give him

livapul86: Only in Naija! Nne, I had a similar story to yours. After chatting with a middle aged man in my neighbourhood and lamenting my jobless state, he promised to contact his Inlaw, who he claimed was the Chief Security Officer for Shell in Port Harcourt. My eyes lit up, when he called me that his inlaw was willing to help me secure a position with Shell and that I should come over to his house for details. This man told me that his in law requested I pay #90k to get the job. On the spot I agreed to pay but with a better offer. I told him I was ready to give them 90% of my monthly salary for the first year as long as they got me the job. To buttress my seriousness, I offered to give him the original copies of all my Credentials as Collateral, just in case I try to default in payment. To cut the story short, the man called me that his inlaw didn't agree, as he said he needed the money upfront as Mobilization money. I just Ignored him.


Nicely done

lol @ mobilization money.
It just doesnt make any sense whatsoever to give someone money to get you a job, if it was that simple there wouldnt be so many jobless people around
