how real is the investment company [b][/b](STANDARD LIFE INVESTMENT NETWORK) am afraid of fraud again

Hi people,pls I would need advice and suggestions on how to help a relative of mine who is in dire need of investors for his oil palm processing factory located in the Eastern part of Nigeria.The thing is,the business ran aground due to mismanagement of funds and lack of managerial skills.The factory has been under lock and key for years but his plans are to start production hopefully by next year.The business is a family inheritance and we don't want to lose it.I would appreciate suggestions.Thanks

Joined nairaland in November bcause I needed an investor to help me get a 700k worth of machines for my factory. Then somene sent me a mail proposin to
Gv me double d amount. I declined sayin I only needed d 700k to pay a monthly interest of 35k and after ne year to return the capital of 700k. I insisted dat he sent his lawyer and bank representative to cme for inspection at d factry before we cntinue discussions. Subseuently, an MOU was prepared only fr d guy to call and sayhe wantd to mve in a large sum of money into the country and needed me to help him move same after which we culd continue. I deeclined, reminding him that I am a lawyer and can't indulge in any sharp practise that would ruin my career. Only then did I realize it was a trap. Iv decided not to ask for help anymore. The people that parade themselves as investors here are FAKE.

toluleke: am always scarced to invest with people i meet online cos 90% are fraudulent..can i meet real people here

Absolutely, you just need to make sure that those you are investing with or on, you meet them personally. So find those who are close to you. If they are serious about you investing your money on them, they will come to you. Make sure also that you get all relevant details about them before you finally let go of your investment.

Nice question, this is one that I have pondered myself, though with different start up capital from that which you have in mind.

Here are some questions you need to answer
1. do you have experience marketing?
2. where are you resident and how far are you,from the central business district?

These are preliminary questions and depending on your location, skills and interests;I await your answers so I can provide a better response.

014.I wish fellow Nairalanders a successful investing year.
