Dear NLer, I write this with pain in my heart, not necessarily for sympathy but to help others make more informed decisions when dealing with people online…this is not to say you do not have honest people online.

I have been in this forum for quite sometime, I needed a car and I checked so many posts, contacted those that I liked their offers and spoke with them but I was finally “hooked” with a forumite with ‘chucky234’ moniker based on his threads on “Benz swap” and “Cotonou car dealer”. I contacted him and discussed several times and agreed on some things. In July 2015 he made me an offer of a 2004 model C200 Kompressor at N800K with 78,000KM, EU-Specs, almost toks with pictures, because of how we had “related” and “testimonies” from other people online, I sent N815K to him(through bank transfer and deposit evidences which I still have) to him, 15K being part-payment for the driver. This was on July 8,2015. it took four(4) days for the car to get to Uyo-Akwa Ibom State.

When the car got to Uyo, I realized the following: the A/C was not working, the sound system was not working, the car was calibrated in MILES not Kilometers, the pointers(trafficators) and headlamps were not working. The on-board computer on the car reported 15 faults. And mileage was 152,000MILES not KILOMETERS again which is approx. 253,000KM. I was quite unhappy and reported those to him.

Later, I discovered that the car was converted and the VIN tampered with(last six digit scrapped off)….this really scared me for obvious reasons(felt the car COULD have been obtained through questionable circumstances), I rejected the car that same day and he said it was his mistake he will replace the car. Later he sent the driver to come pick the car and told me he was out of the country(Benin) so can not remit money to the driver, I should please assist with 20K which I did – bringing the total to N850K.

Pls. friends, till date, chucky234 has not given me a car or my money despite all my patience, entreaties, show of empathy and understanding. I am using this medium to plead with members of this forum who may know him to tell him to refund my money in the name of God or that which he holds most sacred.

I know, so many people will call me names for trusting him with my money, but I have trusted others and they delivered. I have done business with ‘Remiloy’, ‘CrossFire’, ‘Adasco’ and ‘Jaxxy’ and they were NOT fraudulent.

Please anyone that have a relationship with him should PLEASE plead with him to refund my money because this is the last “family settlement avenue”. I will give his personal details and pictures of the car next time I am updating this…if he does not respond responsibly.

Thank you all.

Chucky234

Why are you treating business this way?

OP, did you make this transaction before or after oseri's own?

These allegations are grave. Chucky we await your own side of this story before it's moved to front page.

Just when we are about recovering from the Oseri Saga, then this ugly case comes up again. It's becoming a dangerous trend.

I won't say beyond this until we read Chucky's response. If his response doesn't come in 24hrs then he may be guilty as charged!

Chucky u again?

chucky ,time for you to man up

With all the noise during the chucky234-oseri saga, the OP didn't hear?

Most Auto section posters get serious attitude issue....

One party has spoken, I'd await for next party to speak before commenting

You cannot escape blames when you expose yourself to fraud. Interestingly, you have been a member of this forum for a longtime either as an anonymous reader following different threads or as a contributor to threads. Yet when it comes to the most important decision of how to purchase a car, you choose to trust people on the bases of recommendations made by a faceless group of online users. Not a smart move by every stretch of imagination. There's a gross distortion in this reasoning.

Now, what do you expect people to do...Lambast or squash the money out of Chuky234's pocket?

It would be understandable to make such commitment if you were living in Europe or America but certainly not in Nigeria where people do things without recourse to conscience. A quick-witted move would be to make part payment with a promise to pay the balance upon delivery since it is your first transaction with him. Genuine & honest people are truly hard to come by in Nigeria of today.

I have always maintained in this forum that trust is earned over a long period of association. Again, people make their money differently & as such can spend it however they choose. Nothing offers as much peace of mind as going to see what you want to purchase albeit paying cash while other documentations are processed.

Finally, the onus is on Chuky234 to take the honest part, respond to this allegation & make frantic efforts to pay the money or replace the car immediately.

Chucky234 Come here.

Welcome to the Supreme Court of Nairaland

boldx:
This is a case of trust in business gone sour. I encourage all moderators and super moderators to follow this thread with keen interest.

Chucky234, I also encourage you to contact this guy asap or your story may become like insp*red very soon. Also NLders should please mount pressure on Chucky234 to revert to a reasonable behaviour. A word is enough for the wise!!!

You people cannot seem to get over Inspired.

FYI, Inspired is still the best online auto dealer, forget the dead nairaland auto section and crap, go to top auto websites in Nigeira, Inspired has taken over. His showroom is doing very well.
He has moved on, move on with your own miserable life.

This guy again.....
