How My Friend Almost Got Scammed On Facebook by Desafiar(m): 4:56pm On Feb 01, 2018
Its alarming how fraudstars go extra miles to dupe and scam social media users or internet users.
My friend almost fell prey to their craftiness.
Earlier this year one Mr Phillips Ali who claims to be in the U.K got my friend in a conversation and was so chummy that one would wonder the level of his kindness.
He introduced himself and my friend did same. Few days later he complained about how the kind of work he does makes him barely stay online on facebook so he recommended an App for my guy to download which would enable em converse seeing each other(Something like Skype) if he owns a PC, But my friend told him he owns no PC.
The so called UK base voluntarily opted to send apple devices to Nigeria for him through Cargo Services.
Few days later he told my friend that the package(Apple Laptop, Iphone 7 and £600) was sent and would arrive at Murtala Mohammed Int'l Airport Lagos.He also sent him a number to keep in touch so he could pickup the package.

I got a screenshot of their whole conversation.

My friend called the number and requested for home delivery service because he resides in Makurdi, and they requested that he makes a payment before the package would reach him but my friend declined and that was how the Ali stopped chatting with him Uptil today.
