I Buy Phones From Armed Robbers To Resell As London Used–phone Dealer by Johnnyessence(m): 1:16am On Sep 25, 2017
Operatives of Rapid Response Squad of the Lagos State Police Command have arrested a phone dealer who specialised in buying stolen mobile phones from armed robbers and ‘one chance’ gangs then sell them as London used phones to unsuspecting members of the public.
.
The suspect, Jamiu Adebayo, 30, was tracked and arrested with an iphone 7 belonging to one Kolade Johnson, a banker working in Lagos Island.
.
Johnson, had on August 23 boarded a one chance commercial bus around 5:45 a:m of his way to work. The robbers, operating with the commercial bus dispossessed him of a laptop, 2 phones, one of which was traced to Adebayo while trying to sell it to a customer in Lagos Island.
.
Also found in the bag of the suspect were 6 additional iphones, 4 assorted phones and three MTN sim packs, which he stated he collected from some of the robbers.
.
Adebayo, an erstwhile NURTW member in Ajah, stated that he went into sale of cloth after raising enough money. He added that it was here he ventured into fairly used phone sales.
.
The suspect noted that he regularly bought stolen phones from three people who he is aware are members of armed robbery and one chance gangs.
.
“Uche, Alubi and Pinheiro are three major guys I collect these phones from. I buy iphone 7 with icloud N45,000 and sell N55,000. Those without icloud, I buy N150,000 and sell N180,000.
.
I buy iphone 6 N65,000. I buy Samsung phones N22,000 and sell N27,000. I sell other phones too. I work on the phones and disguise them as London used phones,” he explained.
.

Uche, Pinheiro and Alubi have been on the run since the arrest of Adebayo last week Tuesday.

How can you own an iPhone 7 and still board danfo... So what you're telling me is that Mr Johnson bought an iPhone instead of a baby boy Honda and hopping danfo because he wants to carry iphone.

I will never advise my enemy to buy London used phone or second hand phone. Is better you save yourself the stress and buy new phone that you can afford jejely. I bought London used phone for 60k and sold it 28k after 1month because it was giving me headache
