A close friend of mine hacked my Facebook account, he called me that I should log on and check my Facebook that it seems hackers are doing something funny on it... I rushed and logged on, lo and behold what I saw was UPDATED. Then I knew it was him. Maybe he is thinking am a dumb, he is suffering for his sins now. 4 Likes |

Scammed? My step brother lives in my mansion with his wife and kids since 2014, he refused to move out, refused to hand over the mansion's document and other properties of mine that he changed the ownerships to his name. All is because i wanted him to help me in buidling these houses which I gave him all the money for and his wife is driving my Range Rover i shipped from the UK myself.. We have been quarreling over these properties since 2014. Everything i did for him and his wife and kids he still had the mind to take over my properties. 10 Likes |

Martinez39s:It is bad, well... my mother told me to take things easy that is family matter, i consulted one lawyer in nigeria and he said to me that all he wants from me is a go ahead to arrest my step brother for fraud, that they will lock him up until he produce all the documents for the properties. But my mother begged me not to do that that he might die in prison, mum asked me to keep waiting that she will try an convince him to produce the documents. He gave my mother a document for one of my properties last year but it turned out a fake document.. so i am just waiting. 5 Likes |

If you want to lose two things at the same time just borrow you cousin money. You will lose your money and the relationship. This happened when a cousin of mine rushed to me some years back that he needed 50k to bring out some goods from the company he worked for as a sales agent. He said they were having Easter sales in the company but it was for only their wholesaler. He said he partnered with one of them so that he can use his name to get the goods. He said he needed 500k buh he has got some amount. That's how I quickly arranged to for 50k from our cooperative. Long story short, my cousin refused to pick up my calls again oo. Fast forward to some years after, he lost his job and needed money to go to Abuja for interview for another job, he summoned courage to call me. He even forwarded the invite to me buh lailai I did not answer oo. That's how he missed it. So when relating the issue at a family gathering one day, we discovered that he scammed four of us like that. Our uncle even got him 80k 15 Likes 1 Share |

I actually did take 4k from my friends ATM years ago to fund my nairabet account. I was very ashamed of what I did. I apologized and moved on. I felt real bad. I'm human and could make mistakes. We learn from our mistakes. My friend had unfriended me already me since we left school. I miss him so much but that's how life works. Maybe we weren't just meant to be together. I have made newer friends and have never ever thought of taking their cash. Sincerely, no one's perfect 11 Likes |

Here is the picture of a Facebook friend that is into farm produces supply business that scammed me ($444) 172k in June 2020. We become friend on Facebook as a result of farm produces advert I shared and also comment on some related posts . I felt I could trust him, because we have discussed business severally and shared farm produces information and have tried to connect buyer with sellers. Between late May and early June 2020 he introduced me to a loan company from vietnam own by one Mr Rudrigo, that I can access loan to expand my business, but I will pay a fee to access the loan. He told me that the vietnam company employed him as one of their Nigeria agent and he has done export supply with Mr Rudrigo before and Mr Rudrigo told him about his loan company and the opportunity for young people like him will benefit. So I asked him why haven't you apply for the loan, he said the company is already processing his own loan for him and he has paid his own loan fee. So i stupidly felt for his trick and applied for $20k loan with interest of 3% to be pay back in 4years. He technically did not allow me to send the loan payment fee into his account as their Nigeria agent rather introduce one of their agent called miracle and she is the one processing his own loan. So I made the payment of naira equivalent of $444 in tranches of the loan fee into miracles FCMB account. After making the payment miracle claimed that she didn't receive payment alert. I went to my bank and her bank to lay a complain and her bank FCMB confirmed that the transaction was successful and the money has been withdrawn by the owner of the account. So it became cleared to me that I was scammed. Miracle stop picking my calls. Already there was communication established between me, Henry who introduced me to the loan and Mr Rudrigo on Telegram, so both Henry and Mr Rudrigo bring in Micheal a prison officer to trace and arrest miracle and a picture was sent to me showing Micheal has arrested miracle in a court room setting. . FCMB place PND on the account I paid the loan fee and no feedback from fcmb till date. Henry was forming innocent about what happened Mr Rodrigo deleted all our chats on Telegram. So I just try and lick my wound and move on. Currently I have lost all the evidence of chats and communication that occurred in that period because the HTC I was using then was stolen in Keke in the month of July 2020. I want to share his picture here for people to be careful in dealing with him. He belong to a gang of fraudster. 3 Likes
