So how does someone overcome the issue of fake custom papers nah? Nah to carry custom officer go abi wetin?

saintjoel:


That's why there's a custom verification number on your papers.

drlawizle:


What am I to do with the number?

Eyop:


90% (if not more) of cars at Berger is from Cotonou and few from Tincan Lagos. You will also find accidented vehicles,stolen vehicles(may not be much) in Cotonou and customs paper related issues depends on who's handling the paperwork for you. I do mine at Idiroko border because i have a Customs officer there who was in Seme border before transferred. Like i said,my ordeal @ Cotonou had nothing to do with fake papers.

MrMcJay:
Inspired, I read the allegations levied against you, and I read your response. You have finished yourself just because of 200k. In saner climes, you would have been in prison long ago.

Well, I have a gift for you from the Criminal Code of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Section 467
Any person who forges any document, writing, or seal, is guilty of an offence which, unless otherwise stated, is a felony, and he is liable, if no other punishment is provided, to imprisonment for three years.

467 (3)
If the thing forged purports to be, or is intended by the offender to be understood to be or to be used as, any of the following things--

(b)
A seal or stamp used for the purpose of the public revenue in Nigeria or in any other country;
...the offender is liable to imprisonment for fourteen years.


As for ChelseaBmw and even Seun himself. I dare you to hide my comment not to talk of banning me. I would deal with you to the fullest extent of the law.

saintjoel:
What do u have to say about the response from inspired?

Hope there are no sacred cows in this section.

This is very bad. Fake custom paper bc of 200k balance.

I witnessed customs around asaba fire shots at a toyota highlander who did not stop when flagged down.

Eventually they checked his papers and they We were intact. Imagine if such man had a fake custom paper like this op.

This shows what we've always told our customers but trust Nigerians,they'll keep telling you that they saw a car on they streets of lagos with cheaper prices.

With high regards to Inspired cos he's my boss,many of this issues are always caused by customers cos they want to use expensive cars but don't want to spread the cash.

I'm an agent and I clear vehicles through customs at seme and idiroko but one problem I've always had as been customers who have refused to believe that even Lagos ports aren't immune from fake duty papers,we even have instances where vehicles are smuggled from cotonou through paces like Niger/lagos routes and they're sold as lagos cleared cars in places like Abuja/port harcourt or lagos.That's why customs introduced what we call "CUSTOMS VERIFICATION NUMBER" or "C-NUMBER" so that importers can verify if papers are authentic.

When customers tell me that they've seen cars for cheaper prices or someone has promised to import for cheaper prices,the first question I ask is if they've seen the duty papers and verified if it's genuine or if they're sure the dealer will not import an accidented vehicle and at the end,the same customers will sneak into Cotonou/lagos get scammed and still face custom issues on their way out of lagos but at the end,they'll never admit that they make wrong choices.

Cotonou like they'll make you believe offers varieties when it comes to making choices but at the end,it all comes down to making the right choice,not been greedy or self centered or moving with the right agent.

To inspired,we all have our bad days and believe me when I say that I know what you're experiencing,I've been there but at the end,you learn to make amends.

Inspired autos again. what is really going on, Seun you need to dig deeper into this. Am getting concern about all the series of accusations on this same person.

saintjoel:


Carshopper,I know what you mean when you hmmm and like I've told inspired,that episode you are actually humming about thaught me one lesson,you don't bite more than you can chew and it was a lesson well learnt. Changing the way you do business is also one way of making amends and I know a day will come,I'll surprise you soon cos I'm still bearing the brunt till today but know that you thaught me how to be a better businessman and for that,I thanks you.

Mr Eyop,kindly forget about your custom office cos he'll still handover your job to an agent after removing his own cut,what he can just do is grease his way across checkpoints after the agent has given him the finished papers but woe betide him if he meets a superior officer who's not ready to collect bribes.Idiroko is like the home of fake duty papers,even custom officers are seen all around the bush paths obtaining bribes from smugglers,the only thing you can use to verify is if the car actually passed through the customs' vehicle seat.

Eyop:


Gbenga i understand your point and sincerely have not experience any issue with custom papers with any vehicle purchased in Cotonou. Infact,i was stopped on my way to Abuja(2 different vehicle) by Customs and they used my documents to show other car owners how a genuine customs paper should be. Some Customs documents sometimes are genuine but if the duty was under-paid,one will experience a problem.

Why so much negative threads about inspiredautos these days.: thank God I changed my mind about doing business with him..
