Are Internet Fraudster (yahoo Yahoo Boys) So Wealthy Or .... by shegzhkn: 7:54pm On Jun 18, 2018
like seriously are this guy's so rich the way they are being portrayed on the internet, magazines,bronchures.

Few weeks ago a self proclaimed ex internet fraudster claimed he made 1.8 billion naira while he was still active, that is (that 5M USD) with that amount in America standard you are a high net worth individual(HNWI).

I am pretty sure the 5M USD was because of weak naira ,of cos the guy will have started the biz when naira was a bit strong say 1 USD equals 160 naira, the amount will look larger than the 5M or just say at least 8M USD tops.

But still some guys are still saying the amount is small compared to some guys they know bla bla , now my question is are those guy really wealthy or the noise is just a sham.

I don't know the state of things nowadays but as at 2011 most of the yahoo boys I knew were struggling. A lot of them have moved into yahoo plus and any you tell they have the ability to hammer big [say 400,000 NGN in one deal] believe it is only possible via jazz.

Right now most guys have moved into selling organs or their anuses. The only guys who "hammer" based on yahoo make ~300 - 400 USD once in a while. To them it is big money because otherwise they would live with empty pockets.

Na 9 - 5 win am o. However employment of nowadays is no different from slave labour: man go collect enough insult on top 50,000 NGN per month job.

When one says yahoo yahoo I think it's safe to add nairaland scams to the category.

It is not possible to hit big from it. For example if someone succeeds with a car scam in the autos section the highest pay is around 2.5 - 6 million naira. After that it will take even as high as a year before they strike a 'deal' again.
The smaller scams of say 1,500.00 - 25,000.00 have a better chance of clicking; the MTN guy with his over 2 million nairaland accounts is a good example. In total he can't make more than 5 - 10k a day and don't forget it's not everyday his scams hit their target.

Not like back in the day. The media loves blowing stories out of proportion.

I was one of the people who said that guy's 1.2B NGN was change. It was because a lot of his mates in the '90s, even as late as 2009/2010 made enough money to build houses. There's a story of one Igbo man who scammed a Brazilian bank and bought a lot of choice properties in Lagos back in 1993 or so.

Ehhhh... I really can't say. Over ten years? Most likely, hoping he doesn't get caught first. I'm not so knowledgeable about things nowadays so I hope other posters with first hand experience answer you.

Not all white people have gotten wind of Nigerian scammers' activities. You can say that about Americans, Australians and Brits. What Nigerian guys do now is advertise on foreign language forums. A lot of Europeans have no idea what yahoo yahoo is so one can catch them easily. The pay is mostly small though: 20,000 - 40,000 NGN with plenty of work because of the language barrier.

Fraud isnt as easy as it seems however with the guidance of the oldies in the game, they might give you an insight. But fraud is no longer easy due to the awareness most people now has worldwide especially in the US, For instance, if a new maga intends to go pay you via Western Union/moneygramm, the moment they make mention of Nigeria as the destination, the sender would be sent back home and would be told it's fraud. There is now is big notice at every money centre in the US which reads, Do not send money to Nigeria. Couple with the fact that the US started a TV show called catfish to enlighten people about scam.

So fraud isn't as easy as back in the day when people would make billions or hundred of millions The only way to make hundred of millions these days is wire wire, Tax returns and probably advance fee fraud. wire wire is a sure bet and hard to do with lots of risk involved.

sometimes when boys cash out from wire wire, they burn the laptop used in doing it or smash the laptop and throw it away, this is because of the computer imei/serial number which could be tracked. so they get rid of it. Also they don't use VPN but RDP. Wire Wire is the only fraud that guarantees hundred of millions. Any other type fraud brings seasonal wealth especially Tax returns.


However, Dating is the easiest of them all. one client can change your life. If you are lucky you could catch a client who would pay you till they empty their 401k retirement savings account and that's usually a lot of money leaving them broke, helpless and hapless. Well not to mention other European countries who also fall for these yahoo guys but don't even near Germany. it's hard defrauding the Germans, swiss and even English/Irish people.

These yahoo boys most times ball on savings waiting on the next maye to pay. Or sometimes ball when one of their friends just gets paid.

Coming from someone who have once lived with them and have them as friends.

The average yahoo boy willingly retires when he has made around 30 to 70 million.

At that amount they still press computer but not with the enthusiasm of a rookie who is just starting out looking for money. for instance, A well paid and almost retired yahoo boy don't talk to any one with no good paying job, if you a teacher, secretary,security etc.They won't talk to you, At this point they only talk to business owners, Doctors, recently retired people and other rich people. But a newbie talks to every body.
