What Is The Intention Of SCAMMER Who Flash People With Foreign No by sihamey: 7:15pm On Aug 23, 2022 |
I usually get flash call from foreign phone number almost every week, initially when I saw the missed call I thought it was someone I know and I will call back the number to my surprise the person will pick my call but couldn’t speak until I hand the call. Recently I discovered it was scammer who do that but my question is how would they scam people with such tricks. Even when I block the number they will call with a different number, today I received another flash call and my phone indicates where the call is coming from always from this country called Seychelles Who knows their intentions or what they intend to achieve 1 Like 1 Share

They used to call my 9mobile number almost every morning around 3am. They called yesterday,called today and I am sure they are still going to call again. I was told that whenever u pick their calls,u are likely to be phised on and possibly cloned your account. Just don't pick to avoid unseen trouble. 1 Like |

Ibechris2: In my own case, if I try picking the call, it will just automatically end. As if is programed for you not to pick it. and when you call back, they would wipe away all your airtime. 4 Likes |

Whatever their intentions are that's there own wahala cos I don't bother calling back. I even find it hard to call back contacts saved on my phone not to talk of calling back unknown numbers.. The first step to avoiding be scammed in anyway is to not be in a rush. Be calm whenever you see the call or miss calls and block if you have to. 2 Likes |

sihamey: When you receive such calls and call back their line, you will be redirected to another site, mostly adult content sites, when you call them and they pick you won't hear no sound from their end, the longer you stay saying hello hello with the hope of hearing someone from the other end the more your airtime is being fastly "burned" & converted to money for them. Usually network operators of those foreign numbers are complicit. The scammers get at least a Dollar from such deals, imagine making 710 Naira on 50 people thrice in a week. 4 Likes |

A friend travelled out, coming back last month, she recharged N1k. A foreign no. called her dat eve. Next morning, she made a call & was so shocked to hear that her acnt bal. was too low for d call. She checked her balance, it was empty. I called MTN cust. care, I was told that she called an int'l. number at a particular time d previous night - exactly d time d FN called. They didn't give any sol. Next morning, she recharged N5h, made call for 2mins+, few minutes later a foreign number called, that was how d balance was wiped out. We didn't recharge d number again. She also saw chats not by her on Whatsapp. Few days later, I called MTN with my number to explain d situation again, as they were running checks, I was told that she is owing N5h. I rushed to her, check d phone & saw that N5h was borrowed & used. But she wasn't the one. End of story: her number has been hijacked my scammer. We're going to court for affidavit to 'reclaim' the number. Pray they don't call u & don't call them bk if they do. 3 Likes |

Don’t you know you can’t make a call to another country with your normal Nigerian airtime. You have to subscribe to an international bundle available on your service provider. So that means even though you recharge 5k airtime and you place a call, it’s gonna vanish in seconds! |
