see where your mumu don land you now .. abeg forget the money it is already gone . take this as a lesson not be greedy and too hasty in life . the money you will pay police and the time waste etc will surpass the initial amount defrauded. so count your loss and move on. next time get sense.

Let my experience guide you. My mum works in a bank. Her neighbor was scammed, too, of about 40k I believe.

At the end of the matter, the transportation fare spent commuting between Ecobank and Access Bank, the “roger” money to police officers to hasten the matter amounted to 63k. 23k higher that the original sum he was scammed off.

You’ll spend more than 51k. But if you want to continue do so out of say “vengeance” and not to get that money back.

You should get ready to visit the EFCC zonal office nearest you with a petition. I'll follow it up from there.

Your case is not worth taking up (the money is too small). But the guy's case in particular, is what I'm interested. He may have scammed people of millions.

First and foremost, I'll like to know whether you're Yoruba or Igbo. If you're Igbo, just forget it. It's a case of dog eat dog. I wouldn't want to concern myself with family affairs.

No need for the emboldened.

She can. All she needs to do is report the case to her bank, the account will be traced, it will only cost time and little money. Police report ain't that expensive.

You can possibly get back your money if the account is still funded. Just follow these steps:

1. Screenshot all previous chats across all messaging app (IG and WhatsApp or FB).

2. Write out the Full name and account number of the page or person.

3. Go to the last notification your bank sent you after you made the payment (via mobile app or text) copy out the "TRANSACTION ID NUMBER".

4. Go to any branch of the scam artist's bank (the bank the scammer uses), ask to see the CUSTOMER SERVICE in charge of FRAUD.

5. If you can, print out all those chats with the scammer, and submit it.

While you are there, send an email to SCAMMER'S BANK and copy CBN FRAUD DESK (anticorruptionunit@cbn.gov.ng) this will ginger the bank to take it up fast.

What should you expect from this? The culprit/suspects account will be PLACED ON HOLD. His BVN will be blocked permanently. No account will ever be opened neither will he be able to transact banking business in that name until he clears himself with the bank.

Meaning he/she cannot transfer or withdraw until they visit the bank, and when they do, the bank will contact the police and the suspect when proven guilty will sign a waiver allowing the bank to refund your money.

Do exactly this. Additionally also send a mail to your bank and copy CBN too.

You will get your money.

Even if the fraudster has withdrawn the money, his bank has a responsibility to refund you.

upon say you join nairaland in 2009 you never still get sense . truly common sense is not that common . one would think by now you would have learnt something on nairaland over the years . your 51k is gone . if you take go police you will spend more money and you might not even recover anything so count your loss and move on . stop disturbing us .. shame self no dey catch u
Guy shut up if you have nothing meaningful to contribute. You are even sounding like a cheap scammer

Fool

@OP, the screenshot below should help you. And also there are some scammers on nairaland who will want to discourage you from following this up. You see a lot of them liking the post from a known internet fraudster called Slawonir, and you see them abusing Buhari but also involving in scams.

Good luck

I have been following up your comments and looking for possible ways of activating my contacts to complement your efforts for us to jointly deal with the scammer but unfortunately you disappointed me with this tribal primordial mentality. So sad!!!

First go physically to the bank on Monday to report it.. Then go and collect police report from the police station after which the bank will place the account on No Debit or so... Until he pays back your money... He won't have access to his own money.

But the police report will cost you money sha ooo...

Lie... This same guy scammed my friend about two month ago. She went to the bank to complain. Access bank. And they told him that there is nothing they can do. That the only thing they can do is to start monitoring the account to see if they can get more complain on the account.

She even sent mIl to the bank and even copied central bank. Its been 3 months now and nothing has happened. The bank cant help you.

My friend dis all that and nothing came out of it. Its this same guy. They hack of your trusted friend and they use it against you. They use a popular Nollywood actor to advertise their scam.

This is not true. What if all the story was cooked up just the defraud the account. The only possible way is for you to get a lawyer who will go and get a letter from EFCC bfor the account can be frozen. And this will cost you more than the money u want to get back.

Just go and report to the bank. Though there is nothing the bank can do for now. The more pple report this bank account, i think that wld prompt the bank to take action.

The OP shd send a msg to me. I will link you up with my friend that was scammed 50k by this same guy... I think two voices will be better than one. And if there are other pple that have been scammed by this sane guy. It will be better to fight him collectively

Thank bro, this is more comprehensive enough.Good to know that there are still peeps like you this forum.I appreciate
I’m sorry you had to lose your money to these heartless scammers.
You could try your luck with the bank but chances that would recover your money is like 20% so this is why we all need to be careful.
You could go to the bank nonetheless and see if it’s going to be worth the stress. But hopefully they can block that account number, so don’t sit down and do nothing about it.

I was scammed too months ago, never thought I’d ever be a victim of such as I usually form “Smart” but then I was scammed cheaply! The bank did absolute nothing about it but thank God for the good samaritans here on NL, May God continually bless them richly in Jesus mighty name, Amen!!!

A question real quick. If u weren't scammed, would you have written an article against fraud. It's because you fell for this cheap scam that you want to fight. When others before you complained, what action did u take. Now you are looking for collective effort. Bros, just count your losses and move on. Because you would spend more money in tracing the guy and might still not succeed. Just learn your lesson and move on. No be person die. Happy Sunday
