One useless agbaya scammed me off my Phone (Infinix hot note my bf got me). The thief was targeting my purse and Debit card but my instincts were on point but wasn't enough to protect my phone. Don't believe it if it's too good to be true. 6 Likes |

Well, I have never been scammed, but just 4 days ago someone sent me this msg. This is Ms. Josan Nowak, from Estonia writing from hospital here in Ivory Coast; therefore this email is very urgent to attend. I want you to know that I’m dying here in this hospital right now which I don't know if i will see more days to come. My Beloved, i was informed by my doctor that i got poisoned and it affected my liver and i can only live for some days. The reason why i contacted you today is because i know that my step mother want to kill me and take my inheritance from my late Father. I have a little adopted child name Eric C. Nowak that i adopted in this Country when my late Father was alive and $3,5 million dollars i inherited from my late father. My step mother and her children they are after Eric right now because they found out that Eric was aware of the poison, and because i handed the documents of the fund over to him the day my step Mother poisoned my food, for that reason they do not want Eric to expose them, so they are doing everything possible to kill him. My Beloved, please i want you to help him out of this country with the money, he is the only one taking care of me here in this hospital right now and even this email you are reading now he is the one helping me out. I want you to get back to me so that he will give you the documents of the fund and he will direct you to a well known Bank Director that i have appointed, the bank director will assist you to change the documents of the fund to your name to enable the bank transfer the money to you.. This is the favor i need when you have gotten the fund: (1) Keep 40% of the money for Eric until he finish his studies to become a man as he has been there for me as my lovely Son and i promised to support him in life to become a medical Doctor because he always desire for it with the scholarship he had won so far. I want you to take him along with you to your country and establish him as your son. (2) Give 20% of the money to handicap people and charity organization. The remaining 40% should be yours for helping my son Eric on this task. Note; This should be a code between you and my son Eric in this transaction -(Code: Hospital). any mail from him, the Bank Director he will direct you to, without this code -(Code: Hospital). is not from Eric, the Director or myself as i don't know what will happen to me in the next few Days. Finally, write me back urgent so that Eric will send you his pictures to be sure of whom you are dealing with. Eric is 14years of age, therefore guide him. Again if i don't hear from you i will look for another person or any organization. May Almighty God bless you and use you to accomplish my wish. Pray for me always. Ms Josan Nowak.

Mine was in 2009, I saw an advert in one of d National Dailies for d AUCTION OF CARS BY CUSTOMS IDI-IROKO COMMAND. I picked interest, called d number, he told me dat 406 was 400k, but I needed to write and application to d Comptroller Idi-iroko command, I did with my boss' company letter head, sent it to dia email, they printed it, STAMPED IT 'RECEIVED' WITH THE COMPTROLLERS STAMP, scanned and sent back to me. Now I became a bit more convinced. I asked of if I culd buy draft of 400k in favour of Nigerian Customs Service, they said yes, dat I can send my driver with d draft. I knw u re wondering where d scam is. Now having been so convinced, since I was sure no one can liquidate such draft into his account. They now told me dat for d comptroller to approve my request, he collects 50k for sedan and 100k for SUV, dat was how I sent dem 50k and everything ended up as scam. I now imagine how many Nigerians who paid dat 50k like I did. 21 Likes 1 Share |

MrThisandthat:Sorry about that. The funny thing was i wasn't the only one that opened a thread about him that period, he scammed several people same time. I just hope people do a proper history check before committing to any online business or don't do at all. Like someone said engage in what you can see and control. 1 Like 1 Share |

Scams can be avoided for online transactions if the parties involved use escrow. With escrow, you get what you paid for or your money back guaranteed for the buyer. And for the seller you are 100% assured you will get your payment for goods delivered or services rendered. A win-win for both parties. See my signature to signup and use Nigeria's number 1 online escrow service and enjoy unprecedented protection while transacting online. 1 Like 4 Shares |
