I decided to take my mum to watch Isoken The Movie today. Wanted to confirm timing so I called the Filmhouse Imax Lekki number listed on ReviewNaija. The number was switched off so I decided to call the number listed on google. As a side note, I always check the ReviewNaija business info first because no one can change it and we try our best to make sure it’s accurate.

I called the number listed on google (0906-668-8966) but the guy who answered the phone sounded off. I asked for the movie times. He responded “1pm, 4pm, 6pm”. Then, he said people had been calling all day to book tickets. I joked that the Isoken Movie will be a hit, I can imagine. He didn’t get the joke.

At this point I wasn’t suspicious. I confirmed timing with my mum and we agreed for 4pm. Called the guy back and asked how to make payment. He said I should send my name and he’d send me details. Couple minutes later he called back and sounded anxious. That he hasn’t gotten my text. I was like “mmm this staff is following-up too quickly”. I’d asked him the name on the account I’d be paying into and he said “Fidelity”. I noticed he didn’t give me the actual account name, but instead he provided the name of the bank.

Once he sent me the account detail, I saw it was a personal account. He even added “Sales Rep” before his name, Obende Steven! And provided Fidelity account number 6551990385. I asked how much. Fam! This guy told me 6k for 2 movie tickets!! Then added “3D Tv” after the 6k price. I haven’t bought a movie ticket in ages but 6k sounded a bit on the high side....click to read more -> https://www.reviewnaija.com/filmhouse-imax-lekki-ticket-scam/

I disagree. When these Igbos want to scam, they do it big but my Yoruba brothers will scam you for 1k or even 500 naira. One of them has called and texted me so much, claiming to be from the bank and some BVN palava to the extent that when he calls these days or texts, I will hail him sef like "bros na me dreamwaker o", then he sef will reply in his Oshogbo weed voice " o ti pe o" (meaning its been long I gave him free money in Yoruba). Igbos don't scam for chicken change, this one na Yoruba scammer jo

Hhhmmm
