Those guys there are not different from thieves.......
BTW in this age don't think anybody should be doing business with those street urchins there....if you need anything walk into a shop don't even allow them direct you.

You know. . . If I enter computer village like this I dey face where I dey go with strong face till I get there. Ordinary asking for direction from those hustlers that loiter on the streets is an invitation to get scammed.

I have experienced something quite similar at that same notorious computer village years ago. I wanted to buy a used BB Q5 for 35k but after handing the cash to the cursed guy he returned the money to me saying he changed his mind to sell. what was stuffed in-between were 10 naira notes. I spent every dime still. lol.

nobody can scam you if you dont trust nobody....
First they will create a commotion giving you n impression that you were trying to buy stolen item, beat the other guy and ask everybody to disappear before you are arrested. Basically you have to rush and collect your cash. Just thinking of a method they can use.

Number one mistake you made was buying from roadside sellers

#2 was accepting to collect a money back after you've given the seller. That's one mistake you should never make in computer village. Once you accept anything back be it phone or money, you have been duped already. If they give you a phone and you see its working fine, don't make the mistake of answering him when he tells you to bring it so he can package it for you. Or when he tells you to take back your money that he's no longer selling, please return nothing to him.

Those guys have a special way of sensing gentility in you. If dem don look your face dem go know say this one na swegbe and would be easy to harass. So you have to be very rugged, vigilant and put some fear into them. They will think twice before trying nonsense.

Its a lesson learnt anyways. Take heart.

i agree with u... those guys have even stepped up their business, some go to the extent of using charm
ikeno:

you shouldn't casticate the victim as the modus operandi of those street urchins will scare you that you won't have time to check your money.
beside,some of us have been scammed in one way or the other that's why we keep learning from other people's experience.
like you said,such a scam is not new to you but could be new to someone else

I had a similar experience, sometime closed to xmass period, there is a popular and a most expensive samsung which I priced 6500 as a cheap price. The guy mounted a fair of police at me so dat he can executed is plan in a private place, immediely we exchange phone with money, in a seconds d guy come back and said I should bring the phone back that one police is looking at us, which I did and after some minute he return the phone back to me but was wrap with white handachief telling me not to open it cos of police. After he left, I discover the phone had turn to 3310 Nokia and was package with fufu. I tot av gotten their trick, after some month later I still go and patronized them, but this time they used another trick to scam me with police involved. Pls don't even go near dem cos some of them used juju

lol,the reason why they keep scamming people is because those that patronize them are greedy, thinking they are getting a real deal at a cheaper rate.

someone on NL,was lamenting on hw a data dealer scammed him.funny enough,the same guy was telling the dealer that his own price was extremely cheaper from others he usually patronize and still went ahead to purchase from him and he was scammer.

so, greediness is part of the reason why most people are scammed

You don't wanna be a victim.
The speed with which the "real owner" comes with a scary aggressiveness would make you forget remembering to count that which you've managed to get back from them.
It's called "Owo Indonesia"
Indonesian Money.
