He bears the name, Abdulahi dikkoinde on Face book with mobile no. 08037316489, 07060421850, edwinautos @ gmail.com[/size][size=8pt]

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 Did connive 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, BEWARE!
He will claim to live very far from your destination as an alibi for more payments before the non-existing car arrives.

His Account Name Is Edwin O. Olisa. With Keystone Bank Account No. 6017842325. He might change account name sha.
Please Be Warned........Any Nairalander In Keystone Bank Can juct Assess His Account To Verify That I Paid In 200k And 70k On 12/09/2013 at Keytsone Bank, 34 Ziks Avenue Branch, Enugu. PLEASE you’re Warned!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

carx IS SCAM. PLS BE WARNED.

HIS MODUS OPERANDI OF THE SCAMMER:
I called his mobile contact on the advert, we negotiated the price which he claimed a deposit must be made, I requested for his location and he said KEbbi State. He asked for a commitment to make him leave Kebbi for Enugu State.
We agreed I made payments to show sign of commitment, by 3am, I did a skye bank e-transfer to his keystone account for 70k and I told him. He tells me he just called his dispatch driver who picked an ‘escort’ to deliver the car to Enugu from Kebbi.
He text me phone no ‘08151158227 o.c mike’. I called o.c. mike the escort and he said the were entering suleja 4 hrs on and I was so happy.

THE DEAL.
Pay in 70k, make a check deposit and present the bank teller to his delivery people and pick ur ride in Enugu. However, I kept in touch with Mike, and about 12 noon, the seller mails a bill of sale for the ride and asks I print and acknowledge a copy for his delivery people to verify that its actually goat leg that is buying the car.

2pm seller calls to say his people will reach very late and they need pick a night bus to lagos and as such I should make more payments to enable them clear more cars as in lagos, as offloading of containers will be done at night in lagos.

He said his people were closed to Awka by 3pm and I was damn happy, and he pleaded I should even make 100% payment since the car was less than an hour to the coal city.

I really felt convinced. I rushed to the bank to pay in over 1m! Something struck a contemplation in me and I said NOP. I withdrew 200k and deposited it in his keystone account, wrote a check deposit of 830k and lodged in same account.

He calls 4pm to say he has not got the 200k alert, that am I sincere? Am my really sure? I text the 200k teller nos to him, he calls back about 4.15pm to say payment confirmed. I called escort guy and he said he was at 9th mile. I giggled and imagined me cruising my blue corolla 04.

Escort guy calls to say where we would meet, I said Polo Park shope rite. I kept my baby boy at home and took a taxi from Independence lay out to polo park with wife, alongside the bank tellers and the acknowledged bill of sale.
9th mile to Polo Park should take 25minnutes drive on average.

I called in 40mins and escort guy didn’t pick for times. Escort guy later picked and says he was assisting clear a traffic hold-up along the way.

Seller calls to say he just called his account officer and the man said I didn’t pay in any cheque, that how can I pay in a cheque in a savings account? Immediately I knew I was in for a ride with mr. trust betrayal.

I knew immediately that car dealers should not have savings account but current acct for ease of cheque payments. Seller calls to tell me that I am trying to outsmart him abi? That he has instructed his boys to divert elsewhere.

I got a shocker when my wife sent him one of those ‘crime does not pay sms’ and the scammer replied ‘heaven helps those who help themselves’ atleast he has helped himself abi? He called to tell me that he knows am a professional quantity surveyor, that he too he is a trained and professional swindler! Imagine blow I felt!

I have been u user of Nairaland since 2008 and the only first deal I tried doing on the site ended up in regrets and pains. Am even considering asking moderator to close my account.

God bless nairalanders!

He text me this morning saying “I am intelligent, good researcher but that he is better off than me, that’s why he won’

my brother, already posted my advise on your original thread before it was hidden.

The first step is to go to the bank; go with your tellers and an internet device with which you can open the thread on which the guy advertised his scam car.

But since the moderator have now hidden the thread, maybe you need to in touch with the moderator.

The bank will tell you what to do. Since the guy's real name is known, I believe he can be caught.

I'm very sure the bank will not be happy about any customer who uses his account to defraud people.

The account would have been opened using a fake name, id cards, affidavits and address. Hence the account holder is more like a ghost.
Worst that would happen is that the bank would freeze the account but the money would have been withdrawn anyway. The account officer could held responsible though due to not performing a proper diligence check before opening the account.
goat leg: Was such a convincing deal.
There is nothing convincing about this deal. Was just a cheap scam that can be perfected by a junior secondary school student.
Chin up, it could have been worse.

Another fraud is going on here and it's even ugly that people are already falling for the scam by swallowing the bait.

This is very unfortunate, Not only Auto Sales, a lot of 'interesting' biz proposals on NL are manned by scammers, mostly with multiple usernames, to suggest support for the ideas, even if you avoid them, once you innocently commend the idea or have traces of any philantropic gesture on NL, they make private contact with u, to ensure they 'suck your blood'. I pity Seun, because NL seems to have a promising future, except for the proliferation of scammers & scamming gangs. But they can be tamed by commited researchers, & victims who are ready to go all the way on prosecution, despite the corrupt police bad eggs.

I saw a cheap deal on here called the number and the guy gave me this same story.

I immediately commented on all his posts and he kept on opening up new usernames. Up to 6 different ones. Commented on All of them cus the mumu was still advertising with the same phone number.

Please beware! When they start mentioning kebbi state or anywhere far away from you. It is a big Scam!

@OP,
All I can say is that you fell too cheaply for this scam and to think you said you have been on this forum since 2008?
This place is crawling with scammers for Petes sake. Never pay money to any one when you have not physically taken possesion of what you are buying!
Last year ,one woman,and a member of this forum called Wunmi Allen was involved in so many scams in the business section-you must have heard of this!
If I were you I would chalk it down as an experience and be more careful with your money in future.

By the way MODERATORS why is this not on the front page to prevent other members of the forum falling victim of this fraudsters pranks? Na waaa ooo!

I'm tired of all these things. Even with all the shouts and sensitisation we've been doing here,you guys still do not learn. How much was the car that you fell for it? This thing only happens to greedy people. We'd advertise genuine cars here,buyers would be negotiating at ridiculous prices(as if they heard that we stole the cars). At the end,they fall victim to scammers. I know how many nairalanders I've personally deleted from bbm cos of the stupid prices they call when negotiating. I wouldn't be surprised if these set of people are the ones that end up being duped. Except you are pre-ordering a car,never ever pay an advance for a car that is in Nigeria that you or your rep hasn't seen. It just doesn't make sense. It's greed that would make someone pick interest in an advert that says a tokunbo 2010 venza is selling for 2m naira.

Sincerely speaking,I do not pity buyers who get duped as most of them are equally dishonest.I've experienced a situation where a buyer and a seller from my end mistakenly met themselves while we were transacting and since they hail from the same place and speak same language,they spoke their dialect and decided to cut me off by arranging to meet elsewhere. If the eediot had been scammed now,he'd run to NL to say it happened through me.

My point here is this: the reason most people fall for it is cos they are either greedy or eqaully dishonest and such people,I do not pity.

Finally,the way and manner you were duped is just too easy. No hard work was done by the scammers. I know others would read this and still fall tomorrow.

To the moderators: you guys really need to sit up cos a lot of nonsense is going on on this forum.
