Is It A Scamm Or Real? by Nayok(m): 9:01pm On Jul 07, 2015
Good evening brothers and sister from another mother, pls ur advice is needed urgently on this matter.

I have a friend who i met on bbm, we've been friend for months and always chat well, h claims ђє stays oversea(manchester in uk) .

I had never beg him for someting before, to my surprise ђє jus told last week that ђє have a package(parcel) for m that i should give him my details so that †нε goods will be deliver to me which i respond happily.

And i just received his message that contains picture of an iphone, i pad, and other items with a picture of a bill(receipt may be) which contains his and my details. On top of this bill, it states BRITISH AIRWAYS blabla and i can see d list of items ђє send, my phone number and address, a nigeria line(phone number) tha i should call in order to receive †нε items, bellow d bill left side, there another writes said: †нε RECEIVER should pay †нε local charge and d demurage if not claim after 24 hrs of d delivery .
So, now pls has any of U̶̲̥̅̊ guys experienced this before, or is it a scamm? Should i call †нε nigerian line in †нε attachement? Thank U̶̲̥̅̊ all

Of course it's a scam. You'll pay money and either some or all of the following will happen: never hear from the person again; never receive anything; receive more requests for money because the parcel is being held back.by customs, etc etc.

@OP, my fiance sent me some items last year January through UPS, by the time the item was delivered to me, the delivery guy told me that i would pay for some charges, which i did.

In your case, i would advice you to pay if only you can see the said items sent. Though mine was from UPS, it was brought to me, i did not go to them.

Cheers.

That was your girlfriend...this is someone he has never even met, just chatted with on bbm. The way scammers work, he may even have been chatting with a team, several different people, who were grooming him and building trust to the point where he would be willing to respond to a request for money.
Wake up and smell the coffee. ..or wake up after the money is gone and you can't reach them on bbm anymore...
