I was interested in the recharge card printing business. I came across this thread on nairaland https://www.nairaland.com/1003455/list-major-recharge-card-dealers. So I contacted the person named djbass I saw on the above thread.
He sent me the number of the recharge pins seller. I called him, he sent me the quotation. I told him I wanted starting small so I sent him 27K. Since after confirming the payment he switched off his phone.
I called the djbass and he told me I shouldn't worry he will contact me that the money is too small for the guy to runaway. After some days I decided to report to his bank zenith bank and also my bank UBA which I used for the transfer. I lost all hopes of regaining my money.
Luckily today I was called by my bank that zenith bank info them that the suspect is in the banking hall so they should ask me if I'm interested in pursuing the case. The suspect is now in police custody. They promised me that they will make sure he gives me my money before they release him

Wow! Thank God he was apprehended! I wish Nigerian banks can act swiftly like this all the time. It will go a long way to help mitigate scam and fraud related issues.

At times I wonder y people will come to nairaland and advertise what they don't av

The man's wyf just cald me pleading on behalf of the hubby. She will send me the money that she doesn't want the case to go beyond the police station. He neva tot he will be caught because I live in Kaduna and he stays in lagos

Good one from the banks for releasing the intel.. Good one from the OP for acting swiftly.

Imagine wanting to use someones hard earned money to celebrate christmas in this trying times. Op make sure you give those police men 1500 so that they beat sense into him.

Please don't mind the fake wife.
They're are partners in crime.
They should pay you your money before the police can release the idiot/criminal.

This story is very interesting and has a pleasant ending.... I hope.
For the benefit of countless Nairalanders who could or may have been scammed, please tell us whom you reported to in those banks to be able to get the kind of wonderful response one only gets to see in movies.

I reported to the Head of operations
