Hi, i made a transaction with a guy. I forgot to ask for his Nairaland moniker. After sending a fund of 48$ to him through PayPal, he told me it was on hold. After about 4 days i contacted him to ask about the update, He blocked me immediately. i used two other numbers to contact him and he did the same. Thank God i filled a dispute with PayPal and it was ruled in my favor.

here is his number +234 906 431 6457

i think he his a scam

SCAM ALERT

Dear all, I have decided to be an antiscam ambassador on business threads of this our noble forum.

Why taking the burden

I realise the scammer that duped me have con many in the past and he is probably duping another gentle guy from our member right now. So, as a humanitarian, I have decided to take a time out of my busy schedule to share this information. Perhaps with time, most of our members would be saved from scammers trick.

What you should know

1. There are trusted xchangers in various business threads
2. There are thieves waiting for you to fall to their trick and do a way with your hard earned money

How to identify the trusted xchangers

1. There are people that have a great reputation in this business here. I will mention few. Knowing them is a step to avoid scammer. However, it's not 100% guarantee, but it's better than not having the list.

Examples of these trusted fellows are:

LadyF
Aleairhub
Justi4jesu
Bookiemart01
Singapore1
Nsonaso
Sunboy
Legalwealth
Omotisa
Iyemik
Bdavis
Saintpn
Mariesio
Vizboy
Toluxa1
Gunbiz
Jazes
Tumababa
Juliustip
Naira2usd2naira
Enterpro
Cjsmack
HazzanTazzan

etc

2. You can take the vouch of at least 5 of the trusted members in order to be able to trust an unknown fellow you wanna deal with

How to identify scam

1. A scammer don't usually write details such as number etc about themselves in their profile
2. They usually offer mouthwatery trade e.g selling bitcoin at 400/$ when others are selling at 450 or 500
3. Their mobile number if typed on google brings out information different from what they tell you
4. Their profile is usually new - few months, a year or 2 years old
5. They usually have little or no posts
6. They are always in a hurry during transaction.
7. They use different names and different accounts
8. Block your number immediately after you transfer money to them
9. They sometime come in the name of religion, calling themselves convenat child of God, commited muslim...blah..blah..blah
10. The greedy scammer engages in legit xchange for some period in order to earn your trust and burst you BIG
11. They send money from bank account different from their name. This is MITM technique beware.
12. They write on the thread false scam story so that you would let your guard down when dealing with them
13. They send customise SMS claiming a trusted member vouch for them or false bank SMS alert
14. They sometime claim they don't have nairaland account in order to protect thier moniker.
15. They sometimes claim they can not quote you because antispam bot bans their username. Don't be fooled

How to prevent yourself

1. Trade with trusted xchanger ONLY - This is not 100% guarantee though, but it's more advisable than blind dealing OR
2. Obtain as many vouch as possible before your deal OR
3. Use ESCROW incase you are trading with less trusted fellow
4. Research on identity of the fellow you want to trade with i.e don't rely 100% on my list - confirm my list from your little research

List of identified scammers

Unfortunately, I wrote this in haste, and I won't be able to come up with more than few data. You are welcome to add your own lists of identified scammers you have identified (with proof) and I will add it up.

Hello everybody,

This is a great effort. If we all should put hands together we will definitely achieve near perfect cyberspace in Nigeria. It has been my dream we fight these heartless individuals in Nigeria.

I had similar experiences when I was starting some years ago, which is why I dedicated a page on my website on how to identify them

Hey, check his name again. Because the one you posted is showing up on my mention.

netpro:


The useless halfwit is a bloody miscreant. Check my profile, topics and posts, I don't do dealings of any kind.

My advise, go to the bank and lodge a complaint. Post your complaint as well on the banks official social media pages. These guys get away with things because folks move on and forget about it.

pastie:

Noted sir, I immediately suspected foul play as he claimed to be you, no correlation of any sort.

I will report his details to appropriate authorities.

The scammer has also sent me a message.
