On reaching lagos, he asked for my bus stop, I told him. He then stopped at a bus stop before mine and started running. That was when i sensensed something, i checked my wallet but couldn't find it. I was very fustrated cos my Id cards n ATM cards are also inside the wallet.

aManFromMars: One day, I alighted from a bus only to feel cool breeze blowing around my crotch. I looked down and noticed my zipper was open and my weapon for bedroom activities was missing. I screamed, a crowd gathered, I got my dick back, went home and realized that it was all a decoy. My wallet was missing along with a 200,000 naira cheque I had just won on 'who wants to be a millionaire'. cry cry

Talking about the highest sum of money I've misplaced, it's 1,000 naira. Base on young hustling boy things, I vex well well when I lose this money. I almost committed suicide by jumping from an MTN mace close to my compound.

10,000 naira.>>>>>I was short-paid by a cashier. I did not confirm the cash before leaving the banking hall. It was painful.
Re: What Is The Largest Sum You Have Ever Misplaced? by hohafrank(m): 3:47pm On Nov 22, 2013
It was 21,000 and some fraction.It was a slavery job,which the employer call the post of financial controller.Duty?To go the only branch office to collect cash.When I alighted from the bus felt my pocket that it was there.I was shocked. It had been picked.In my madness,i ran after the bus,which branch off to buy PMS.I announced that somebody has picked my pocket.The response from the passengers was that i did not board that bus.Actually when I looked closely I notice it was not actually the bus I boarded. I got to the office and narrated my ordeal,I was pitied by my colleagues including the owner of the establishment.At the end of the month the whole amount was removed from my salary of 45,000 Naira.I will never forget that day.

With the narrations here, it's sure the statistics of Nigerians that loose money (stolen, misplaced, snatched, mysterious disappearances) will run to around 3 million Nigerians per year or 8000 Nigerians per day. That is a frightenenly huge number.

It happened during my NYSC year. Koko, warri north local government of Delta state. I'd been paid my monthly salary 2 days earlier, a sum of 40 thousand Naira. It's usually paid in cash, so the question of it being in the bank is out of it. So i had it kept in my laptop bag and left for work. Around 12 noon, something nudged me to go home. This is unusual cos it's earlier than 4pm which is the normal closing hour. Behold i got to the corpers' lodge to find my room broken into and the money gone, but suprisingly the laptop intact (it was to be properly stolen 2 years later). Three other rooms belonging to colleagues were also ransacked. I immediately reported at the police station where one bloody officer asked that I drop some money to commence investigation. How heartless can someone be, demanding money from a youth corper who had just lost 40k. Anyways, i just have it up as one of the few losses that happens.

I don't have that much to misplace.
Re: What Is The Largest Sum You Have Ever Misplaced? by Nobody: 5:18pm On Nov 22, 2013
92k to a scammer online. I went to the police, spent more money there but they ended up quoting some silly laws to me. That was last year and the incident nearly made me to stop going to church, because i didn't know why God allowed such mishap to happen to me.
