I have never done a transaction here but would like to make an observation.

Last week I tried to connect with a couple of people who like me are in the US. They wanted naira in Nigeria and I had naira in Nigeria I wanted to sell.

Naturally they wanted me to send my money first which I declined to do and in either case we didn't deal.

Now I'm not suggesting either was trying to scam and in fact this also applied to a transaction I tried to do with a neighbour here in USA. They always want the transact in Nigeria to go first.

If you are both in the same jurisdiction the transaction that should be done first is the one that is in the same jurisdiction that you are both in because if that goes wrong you are covered by the laws of the country you are both in. Hence there are safeguards for both of you that simply do not apply if the two of you initiate a transaction in a foreign jurisdiction.

For real?

There are many verified exchangers you can deal with here without issues. I can quote some people here who are usually here 247 (guess they lost their jobs like me) You can do your background check on them, then decide if it's secure enough to send first.

There is no circumstance under which it would make sense to send first into a country where neither of you are present. Your counterparty cannot offer you any safeguards. That's the point.

From experience, I can tell you there are some traders here you can send money to wherever you are. Even though I'm in the US, I know who to deal with in Nigeria, not just a random trader

I don't doubt you at all. However I can never do it. Have you ever had a transaction go wrong in Nigeria? I have. Somebody in Nigeria who I was introduced to by a family friend bought GBP from me. Because he was introduced and they vouched strongly for him, I agreed to go first and pay his pounds. I week later I never see my naira and thats when you realise that if anything goes wrong on the Nigerian end of the transaction you are essentially helpless. The friend who introduced us just sent email and sympathised. Fortunately for me the entities he had asked me to send money to where subject to the Proceeds of Crime Act and under threat from me they returned my GBP to me direct.

But basically after all assurances if anything goes wrong on the Nigerian end there is little or nothing you can do, regardless people always expect the Nigerian end of the txn to go first.

I've also been a victim as well but never do conduct a business transaction based on a family friend recommendation. This business na one way, NO CTRL Z... this thread is almost 300 pages, you should know the good, bad and the ugly. 98% of scam victims are attracted with TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE deals

I've been following the case of this notorious Awaritefe on NL for a while, the guy is smart and in fact he's a very active member of this forum, I believe he spends nothing less than 12 hrs daily going through threads on the business section looking for posts he can pounce on(I know he's reading this post as well)
A classic example was his case with tumababa, he knows tumababa to be very active and a veteran in the business section, so he had to give him account details which didn't contain his real names which would definitely raise eyebrows immediately, but in his case with desoul2004 he observed that the guy is probably new here or he's not an active member(he must have checked out his profile and posts on NL) so he gave the account details with the 'Awaritefe' since he knew the guy won't be conversant with that name.
I have done a few transactions on NL with about 7 monikers, most times I sent funds first - Bizbloke and Ayo8 comes to mind, but I've never got scammed(not that I'm too smart, anyone can fall victim of scam) just because I do due diligence on any moniker I want to transact with, especially those ones that are not so popular, there are a few monikers I can deal with without any hassles as they are more like household names here on NL (this is not any form of recommendation) - legalwealth, arbitrage, ymodulus, tosinjay, e.t.c (this list is by no means conclusive)
For newbies on this business section, I have the following recommendations to guide you in having a safer dealing(this is by no means a rule of thumb):
1) take some time to study the thread and establish which members are 'trusted' sellers/buyers
2) always request and run a check on the moniker of the person you want to transact with
3) it is safer to transact with monikers registered up to 3 years and above(you can still get scammed, go to the next line)
4) use the NL search button to conduct a check on every details of the individual e.g phone number, account number, account names, real name, moniker, company name, e.t.c one after the other
5) if you're still in doubt make a post and ask older members for advice
6) when it's too good to be true, please exercise great caution! caveat: not all cases in this category is scam, e.g gabman700 (a 'trusted' seller) sells amazon gift cards at 265/$ but some other people sell theirs at 275-285/$
7) finally, use you instincts, if you find any reason not to transact with the person, call off the deal
Wish everyone safer dealings and a happy Sunday!

Please can you give me the contacts of Tosinjay,
Thank you.

I think you are the dreamer. Go to aboki and get scammed and come here to cry like others.
And aboki will still sell you to 370 naira and you will risk carrying dollars upandan. I do this all the time and I am looking for serious persons and not you.
Thank you
