Case closed

i dont fink its d fault of NL. its ur own fault. you shld knw how to detect a job scam.

Should we close down the job board. Can you report the advert in question?

I think those moderators are really trying their best but the scammers don't want to just stay off. My advice is that everyone looking for a job or searching for an opportunity should be very careful and ask meaningful questions before taking any action. Scammers are everywhere in in T.V and newspapers.

Sorry bro, but by now you should know how a job scam looks like , many that tell you to send cv,s to free email domains like gmail.com yahoo.com etc, some advanced one's use paid domain names like pawa.com etc. Just know that the main type of scam in nigeria is advanced fee fraud. You give them a little something for them to give you something big in return. If I was a moderator I would not only delete those threads, but I would mark it as scam with a big red marker just like the ones we see here when moderators close threads. I mean that would be nice, and because of nairaland.com high page rank, anyone who is not a member of nairaland that google searches the job on the internet would be directed to the job page here on nairaland and at the end the person would see its a scam.

@mrkels u r very correct l hope seun can humbly adhere to ur suggestion. one love NL

@olatayo, pls don't blame anyone for that, anybody can post anything here even job vacancies but its now left for you to make research for the authenticity of the info. I think we've had some testimonies tru this same channel, so pls don't blame anyone

Seun I really don't think your first sentence(question)was appropriate.Nairaland by far,is one of the most popular and used to be the most reliable sites in Nigeria.This,I'm sure you achieved through years of hardwork.Don't let some die-hard scammers ruin this reputation.Get moderators,I mean online and offline moderators to authenticate any job opening or business opportunity.Best regards

GNLD Guys has infiltrated all the job sites,not only nairaland.
U guys should give me the opportnity to work with the moderators...
I swear down,none of them wil penetrate here.I'v known all their formats,asin all.I fell once,wen I was stil starting,but not any longer.
Its annoying for job seekers to waste their tp and later see a different ting.
Pls! Am rly desperate to save fresh graduates from it.

It is good to read some of the responses so far.

OP everything is peculiar about Nigeria. There are a number of topics on the first page offering advise and guidelines for job seekers on NL. I'm not sure u read thru, but the way things are these days demands your scrutiny over these advertised job 'vacancies'. Its an unfortunate sign of the times and we all need to be extra perceptive.
