A friend of mine just called me, i could hear tears dripping at the other end of the phone. She said she has been scammed of 70,000 naira i was like what How?
She told me the money was given to her to by her mum to deposit to her grandma's account (grandma has been seriously ill). On her way to the bank, a man apporached her claiming to be a police officer. He told her he has been observing her that some guys are after her because of the money she is carrying, i guess he immediately gained her trust, cause there was no how a man from no where knew about the money. You know out of fear for loosing money this festive period she succumb to the mans idea of assitance. The man then gave her a poly bag to put the money in it. When she did that he gave her the poly bag. And she headed for the bank, but getting there the money was not found in the bag, actually i dont know where to get 70k to give her now she is currently in my house *so sad*. So please i beg you my fellow nairalanders. This is umber month as my mum would say, everyone wants to make money the fastest and easiest way. Don't trust anyone. As the bible says Psalm 188:8 " It is better to take refuge in the Lord than trust in man". Thanks
