I had a similar experience few months ago, if u see this guy u would believe he can't hurt an ant, there was one four bedroom flat that the owners wanted to give out for rent, according to him after the rest he showed interest in being their agent and since he lived just the next house and they knew he does things like that also ,so they consented.... This guy knew that the rent would be outrageous for only one occupant ,650k he decided to share it among 4 occupants without letting the owners know which is still not bad . this is the step that introduce myself and 3 others we paid our our rent since October last year but we were waiting for the other three ...our wait continues until the past person came and pay in January ....only for him to be posting us , afterwards, he disappear into thin air.. Then the search started ....in summary, he has been since arrested currently in kirikiri tho still on remand for 8months .he must suffer ,the total amount he squandered was #10000050.....for an accommodation of 650k. His name is jimoh forolagba aka abule sowo 3 Likes |

Riversides2003: Tou obviously dont live in lagos. People who build 15 rooms why do you think they do? The house that can easily be used for scams are those that are cheap so many people can pay. Let rent be more than 500k before you see 3 people to scam they'll catch you. This is the third time I'm reading of his type of scam this year. 3 Likes |

Fenmark: Rule no 1 if the joise isnt plug and play dont bother. No 2 the day you pay who holds the key follows you to the bank as you pay u collect key. No 3. Immediately put curtains or change the locks on the doors and push somethings into the house. If not OYO. 3 Likes 1 Share |

phymat: Lol. Make the owner catch una say na 4 separate people dey the house. Immediate eviction unless a lawyer is not involved. Part of the terms of many agreements in flats is that no subletting. If you sublet your agreement with them is forfeit. Thank God una catch the guy |

The house i am living in presently was paid for by 121 victims, 4 selfcontain apartment and 1 room and parlour selfcontain. i happened to be among the lucky 5. Other victims followed the case up from the local police station there ==> Ojo Police station ==> Ojo Palace ==> Ikeja ==> kpanti. Guess what? the case just "disappeared" at kpanti. Nobody was refunded a dine (except maybe people that went thr agents). The woman bought her freedom and is walking free today, because she knows any uprising in 9ja only lasts 1 or 2 weeks and tension dies naturally... if you doubt me ask Sowore. Nigerians easily forget. i just hope in this case, the victims recover fast. Dont count on any police or court case. 1 Like |

I was one of the victims of this scam. I paid the rent for my brother. Wen we found out it was fraud I just needed to let go because I knew the money was gone. In order to make sure it doesn't get to me, I rented a far more better and costlier apartment for my brother at a better location. Beware of uncompleted buildings in lagos Don't pay for an apartment where u won't collect keys immediately |

AuroraB: And you had to refer to me as Omo ase? I guess you need some serious growing up to do sister-girl. I can see how grown and matured you are to throw jabs on a thread that wasn't created by you or a comment not directed at you. May I recommend a visit to the doctor because your brain needs some realignment. After that, buy original honey and take 10mls three times daily. |
