Mine happened on Twitter. I meant a guy mid last year, then I just rounded up my Youth service, looking for a job and I decided to go and learn web design prior to when I get a job. Coincidentally, I saw a post of a popular celebrity saying he want to help people that want to learn something. Well, in my mind I was like prayer answered. FAMS you won't believe what happened, he told me to send registration money to his agent. My sixth sense was telling me it was scam but I sent 5k. After that I contacted him and he said I should send him recharge card for him to call his agent. Then I knew it was all scam . 5k gone. I try looking for Providus bank to report the incident but couldn't. 2 Likes 1 Share |

MISSunderstand:My mom, younger sister, and cousins have been scammed. I have never met scammers but I want to see who will outsmart me either through intimidation...my greedy nature or in a cunning way. A girl I liked this year almost scammed me but she told me that I'm too cautious and calculative...she thought telling me would make me be free. I discarded her because deception disgusts me. I read your story, madam. Lots of mistakes you made...I just pray you learn from it. Work on your boldness...no one can intimidate you unless you allow your mind to be intimidated. Don't rush stuffs...make enquires before embarking on stuffs. My people are smart but you have to be smarter and tougher to deal with them. 3 Likes 1 Share |

trueconscience: No lies bro. Maybe some stuff didn't add up in my narrative. 1. Like you pointed out, I don't recall the exact value of the coin I gave him, that's what I said around 10 kobo. 2. 500 note was in existence then, around 2004. That was even what made them notice that it was missing. 1 Like |

I was scammed by Koltron Nigeria Ltd. It happened between 2012 and 2013 can't remember correctly. I overheard my colleagues then discussing with 2 men and laughing. I asked what the news was that they weren't sharing. That was how I used my hand by myself to enter that wahala. They introduced the investment to me, that they trade in forex and after a particular time you get a certain percentage as profit. They started telling me about my senior colleagues that are into it and are cashing out. They gave me a brochure, it looked so authentic. I studied it and I immediately transferred 100,000 naira to the account. That night while at home Africa Magic aired one movie about a woman who had a restaurant and was doing very well till some men in suit came and marketed an investment to her, she was promised a certain percentage which was very juicy. She invested her all and lost everything. I should have known that was God giving me a sign but I ignored it. The following day I transferred an additional 50,000 naira. Shortly after we heard an announcement on NTA news warning people not to involve themselves in any of such schemes as their investment wasn't protected bla bla bla. We called the guys the next day, they said they are encountering a challenge. We check the account and it was already blocked. Choi! The MD of the company was later discovered to be one riff raff and he was just going in and out of police station as different people kept arresting him. Abeg na so our hard earned money just go like that. Some people borrowed up to 500k to invest in it. 14 Likes 1 Share |

Just imagine the kind of Let's not be greedy. Even the Network Owners will never sell data allowance like these. These type of people make us honest business people look bad. Just look at what he is selling as data. Learn to buy data yourself directly from the Network Carrier. I don't even see what's cheap about these data these people sell. They are only out to scam individuals. Imagine the Network Owners themselves that is Airtel sell 1gb while this Scammer is selling 1gb Airtel for 330Naira. How on Earth is that possible? Please, let us shine our eyes. 4 Likes

I got an item here on Nairaland discovered that all the person said about the item was all false wen I got home , I contacted the person for a refund he started being aggressive saying he couldn't do so. I didn't want to hurt the person but wat the person didn't know was that it's not everyone you scam, more reason I don't do bad , but them no de cheat Esan man, he lost alot ,till now the person still doesn't know what hit him , waiting for him to talk so I can finish him totally. i don't cheat anyone so you can't cheat me. I hope he sees this and confronts me. some people just need to be taught a lesson so they don't go about doing the same to others. 12 Likes |
