Long story short, an in-law who is a medical scientist wanted to help as he heard I had quit my regular job. He'd been approached by an intern colleague of his who said a man had connection for a fed job. He got to me, I spoke with the man and ended up paying 25,500NGN for the supposed job. He said I will be earning 125k a month and will pay a part to the arrangers of the job for six months.

A couple days later he said he has finished only that I was posted to Borno state and that he is not happy that the place is war torn due to Boko Haram. Right there and then I knew I had entered one chance things. I decided to play along. He said the people are also ng for extra 100k to move me to a better state. I told him there was no such money on me and I'm not able to get it lent to me. I asked to get the job and I will pay it back from my salary. He said that was not applicable. After so much talk, I told him to have me posted anywhere it is that I don't mind.

He would later stop picking my cc all so I decided to goad him by saying I wanted to see if I can still pay for the reposting. He replied saying that he cannot send someone where is not good that if I do cannot source the money he will refund me. I replied shaperly saying he should please refund me.

This is almost three weeks and no show.

I promised him I'm taking the case to the social media I'd he doesn't pay me back my money today. Following will be details of the man and his associate so that folks will beware of them.

Name according to TruCaller is "Mr Mike"
Account no he said to pay to goes thus:
Account name: IKE BLESSING IFEOMA.

N25,500? That's more like a donation to charity na. Except if you mistakenly omitted an extra or more zeroes.


*Modified* You said the person in question is an in-law. Have you tried hashing out the issue familially, before escalating it to this level?

I don't have any issue with my in law. Not just cos he's my inlaw, he's my guy any day. He was trying to help a brother and he is devastated too. Not just for the kidney but because he was the person that 'brought the link.'

FromZeroToHero:
Nawa oh. and you were busy answering "OK Sir" to a scammer.

DanseMacabre:



By the bolded, I'm guessing you mean money.


I get now.He's indeed not culpable Goodluck with your quest.

sleemfesh:


Auto correction go kill somebody one day o. Na 'money' suppose dey there. Corrected. Many thanks.

toprealman:
Called the number,the waste pipe immediately swore he going to kill his family not me. His voice alone is a giveaway. Forget the money, the hungry twit cant pay back. Give him good publicity. I can work with you here

sleemfesh:


Correct analysis there. I am already spreading the info as wide as I can. These guys can't keep getting away with things like this. Imagine having a bank account to work with with all the BVN applicable. I am working the bank angle to see if someone gets picked up. Lemme know what more info you need that I can provide. I will gladly do so.

toprealman:
Bank can do very little to help! You will be told get a police report and given your storyline, could be cut in the web

namelesss:
Oga sir, are you actually willing to go work in Borno?

sleemfesh:

Don't mind the guy abeg. Seeking attention. We don see him. Meanwhile he is advertising a job in 2 months in his signature. Na dem dem. If I took the bait I'm trying to ensure others don't and that the magas get apprehended if possible. The former is more of my aim here.
Cheers.

No one will blame the scammer, no one will help you in tracking the scammer either. It is you they will blame. It is no news and we know how many times co-operations and even government have warned about advanced fee fraud. Who gives an offer without an interview? You are just a lazy being.. you think that is how connect works. Equip yourself with the right info and stop crying over your folly.

majekdom2:
you are being silly!
