I Just Got Scammed by Boozah: 8:38pm On Aug 27, 2020 |
Hello nairalanders. I would love to share my bitter experience today. It all happened by 5.30pm. I had a chat with a seller on jiji and we agreed on a price. I got to his shop and inspectred and saw all phones were sealed. So a receipt was issued and it was written tested and okay. I paid through transfer and left thanking god i managed to get a brand new phone. By the time i got back home, I tore the nylon as usual. However i heard a sound . I opened the box and saw the phone had flipped. I took out the screen protector, the phone was on. Inshort the phone was a refurbished phone. I felt sad and scammed. I called the shop and they start telling me sorry, that they did not know its refurbished .but i saw them all sealed in nylon. I later discover that the seal tape was missing. The imei sticker at the back was missing, lo and behold the screen was poorly glued. They promised to replace a brand new one. Now the question is how will i be sure brand new one is brand new one. Nigerian crooks can get anywhere to get the seal sticker before opening it as brand new. I feel so stupid right now. All this happened at iwo road, inside a nice shop to fool ppl. I feel so ashmed. i paid 135k but got refurbished phone of 70k worth. 51 Likes 4 Shares

I am very devastated. Its a different thing if i got uk used. However it was sealed as brand new so i wasnt bothered. Not knowing i was scammed. The shop is owned by an igbo man and he claimed he bought it brand new.now im scared that the one they will give me tomorrow will still be refurbished and nicely sealed as brand new. I went to a shop withh my intention to buy a brand new never before used phone and i paid via real transfer .but look at what i was giving. Thats the phone as i got it from the shop before tearing away the nylon 42 Likes 5 Shares

Fraudsters everywhere. Who can one trust? Buying stuff online in Naija is very very risky. Next time do patronize a trusted mobile phone store and save yourself from this heartache and disappointment. 38 Likes 4 Shares |

Your money should be refunded, completely, with apologies. If the society we live in was not a scam itself where the tyrant scammed 15 million people with fake promises and their donations and still rigged his way back into office, you would’ve received your full refund and even extra compensation and bad reputation for them. But here we are, if you are sold the wrong product, you cannot even get your money back unless you know a police officer, which will definitely cost you money and time 25 Likes 2 Shares |

Boozah: There is nothing scam here. They have shop, address, contact number and they never deny the goods. Just go back and get your money. If they want to play smart, get one mopol officer and settle him with 2-5k. 166 Likes 3 Shares |
