On NL,there are lots of genuine business men here and it's our duty to keep this territory safe and condusive for people to do business. However,there are still some fraudulent folks who pop in from time to time and we try our best to fish them out. If you notice any suspicious advert here,report to the moderator or open a thread to that effect. Onle: I called one of them this evening with respect to one of the cars he added,he said he'll call back that he was in a meeting n I recalled I called 1 last week,he said he was in a meeting still...the 1 I called this eve had to take his time to compose himself! He did call back but I noticed he was a young boy trying to adjust his voice to that of a real man that I guess will fit that of the man whose picture he used on the add...as we talked on, I was suprised he didn't reall the price he added on particular car then as we talked on,he tried talking me into paying into a particular account number which doesn't digest well to me. Well I decided to google it then I found nairaland n after I read most comments,I had reasons to believe that nairaland is properly gauarded! You guys should keep on this good work,it will save a lot of Nigerians from those real bad guys!!! |

Can't we Nigerians desist from obtaining things from the back door? Don't you know that awoof has no bone but hooks the neck strongly than bone. Anybody duped is a thief. How can you buy a 2010 Highlander for #900 000. Barawo. 2 Likes |

My suggestion goes thus; please If you want something genuinely why not simply go to the right source go to the companies website demand to see the person physically do not I repeat do not pay money into any bodies account you have not met, if possible let the person give you the product or car first sign the necessary authentic documents before you pay. Physical Contact is paramount 1 Like |

Physical Contact is paramount I think the best bet is to KEEP-OFF (don't even call the idoits on phone) the moment the cars seems too cheap. I read here on NL that a guy was abducted/kidnapped in the course of going to inspect a car that was advertised at a extremely cheap price. 1 Like |

Hello Mr. Inspired, thanks for ur posts on this issue. It remains a fact dat many people wants awof cars most especially knowing dat it is the Nigerian Custom Service dat is auctioning these cars. I will like to get a 2007 Toyota Rav 4 or 2007 Honda Crv for the prices advertised. My question is, how can someone get the real contacts for the cars being auctioned by custom service? What are the neccessary things required? |

Kunleoduwole: I fell victim to the same scammers,but this time it was airconditioners and other home appliances that was advertised on google traders.I actually wanted to buy airconditioner 2hp that was advertised between the price range of 27000 to 40000.I was told to make a commitment of say half of the price ,after which they deliver the appliance to my house address..After making the payment of 15000 to an account number which they sent to me,up till now I have not seen the delivery...I called the sellers phone number a couple of time only for me to hear that the number has been switched off..today is making the 5th day I payed for the product.Pls people should bEWARE of this online scammers posing as genuine traders. I think our banks need to help in this kind of situation where such scammer can be traced via all the info submitted to the bank before opening the account, am sure if this is done online scam will reduced drastically. |

goat leg: I Just Fell A VICTIM of This scammer for a 2004 corolla, I Paid In 270k As Advance Payment Today To His Account And He Didn't connived with someone to make me understand that the car was being delivered from Kebbi State to Enugu. Moderator Should Ban This Guy From Nairaland. I Will Post The Bank Tellers Tomorrow. This Guy Is Scam. Avoid Him Like A Plague. Buyers, B...E...W...A...R...E! He will claim to live very far from your destination as an alibi for more payments before the non-existing car arrives. |

People would never listen, stick to known car dealers here, Nigerian customs don't auction cars but the price tag is what is entangling buyers. Imagine a 2010 Venza for 1.2m. 2 Likes |

God bless nairaland, i almost got scammed. I visited a fake website with infinity sport for 600k. I called one mark, he said i shld send clearing money for 100k. Then i checkd customs offical website sayin we shldnt be scammed. I wondered when clearing became 100k in 2013. Seriously i was shaking because i thought it was a lifetime opportunity. Then i rememberd i have a real customs friend @ seme boarder. When i called, there was no auction going on at all. I was advised to hold my money tight. They have caught only 2 fake scammers so far. God bless Nigeria. Some fake names :- Mark 08146780947, Rosemary Uzoma :-08060957326 Fake cars/scammers website :- http://m.halanow.com/78/posts/10/36/page4.html |

My suggestion goes thus; Please before you buy any vehicle or make any payment schedule a day for physical inspection of the particular vehicle in question, pictures are not enough insist on inspecting the vehicle. Please let's be wise how will you make a payment for something you have not seen physically. Thanks. 1 Like |

http://www.kobocars.com: those guys are fraud, they are three member syndicate parading as customs officers and going with names like segun ajayi, officer dayo segun and officer abubakar. One of their numerous account numbers is : SEGUN AJAYI,0061010343 ACCESS BANK. They have many access bank accounts, UBA and FIDELITY BANK. I hope some staff of these mentioned banks will try to do something about these low lives who are defrauding ignorant poor souls. |
