Lawyer, Others Dupe Man Of N24m With Fake C Of O! by lawyer(m): 2:48pm On Nov 25, 2013 |
This morning i was just going through the some papers online and i stumbled upon this old article in the Vanguard Newspapers. The article is so disgusting and annoying that i have to just republish it for your own viewing. The rate land scammers and property speculators go about stealing other people's lands and defrauding people off their hard earned money is so disheartening and painful to read. I wonder why they don't have the fear of God in them. Excerpts of the Article is written below:
Although the article is old, it still has most of the key ingredients fraudulent Land scammers use to scam and deceive people till date: 1. A Fake C of O was paraded around as the document that would be given to the buyer but the buyer paid N24Million without verifying the authenticity of the Certificate of Occupancy. 2. The Fraudulent Scammers posed as Children and Owners of the Property and pretended to the authorized Signatory to the documents and ended up giving the Seller a Fake deed of Assignment, Fake C/O, Fake Letter of Allocation and fake Receipt. 3. Money was paid into the Lawyers account Why should money be paid into the Lawyer's account when the so called family members were present at the Signing and there is no Power of Attorney Granting the Lawyer to authority to receive Money on their behalf? 4. The so called property was advertised in a National daily but the Seller did not take steps to verify the Agent, Seller(s), their place of abode and how they obtained the Documents 5. Also any Property Lawyer that is well versed in Property law and land matters should know that a C of O Would only contain the name of the original owner of the property and he or she is the only person that has the right to sell that property to another person. There is no need for people to pretend to be children or members of a family when it has nothing to do with them and a proper search at the Land registry would show the passport photograph of the individual who has the C of O. How the seller of the Land managed to avoid a simple land verification to ascertain all these facts by employing an experienced property lawyer or land verification expert is beyond baffling to say the least. 6. Finally the most annoying part of it is what these land scammers would do with your hard earned money. You can read how they shared N24Million to buy cars, spend your money on their girl friends, use it to travel round the world at your expense, rent swanky apartments and go shopping with your money. ( I highlighted this part so that it will really hurt you to know what it means to buy a land without doing a proper verification. You work thankless hours of the day to provide shelter for your family and when your ready, you choose to do Ijebu by ignoring the simple details and not verifying the land. You argue and try to haggle the price to do a proper land search but your afraid of the Seller, Omoniles, Agents and all those scammers breathing down your neck to pay Millions for the land today unless another person would buy it and you finally succumb to their pressure and find out later you have been scammed. See what they would use your hard earned money to do above. Buy Suya, beer plus Nwokbi, Buy clothes for Girlfriends and take them shopping with your money, buy flashy cars that you cant afford now because you have prioritized your life and budget and rent swanky apartment etc. Is it worth all this stress and unhappiness? Now they have brought Special fraud Unit into the Matter plus High court and the amount of money they would use to settle police and other people. How much would it have cost the Seller to organize a proper land verification or engage experts to do it? I doubt he would recover the full sum paid to these scammers and its very sad to hear stories like this that could have been avoided from the very start. 7. Last but not the least; The Lawyer Fall my hand sha and fellow NBA members. Very unprofessional and extremely unethical in his dealings concerning this issue. Please shine your eyes and learn to do a land verification before you buy any land. Contact professions to help you out lest you throw away Millions of your family fortune to these kind of people you have just read about above. It cost you nothing and if you choose to ignore it, be prepared to leave a life of pains and sorrow. 2 Likes

Lawyer claims he wasn't aware the c of o was fake, yet he got N8 mil for the deal. Who pays a lawyer more than 10% of a deal? Nonsense! That's how they go around selling people's land. I always advise people trying to buy land not to pay outrightly. Pay a small percentage, then start a small work on the land (mini-fencing is the best). If no one confronts you to claim you are trespassing, then you can start off the major payment. See as they spent the man's N24 mill like say na 24 thousand! 1 Like |
