Should I Take His Money by martyns303(m): 1:23pm On Mar 30, 2016
I know a lot of people are going to call me several names after reading this, I however want those with a bit of decency in them to advice accordingly.

I have this friend who is doing very well, so well sometimes one wonders if it is the same job that is giving him this much money.

2 week ago he said he wants to introduce me to someone, he went on to tell me the purpose of the person. Basically this person is moving money, the money will be transferred to my account from the bank, I will then transfer it to another account given to me, I get to keep 10% of whatever is moved into my account. So if N10m is moved, I get go keep N1m and I agreed.

Me and the guy has been talking on BBM, he doesn't use his profile pics and uses a moniker. After much talking, he says he trust me and being introduced by this my friend. Yesterday the money was transferred to me, at first I thought it was a joke, I had to cross check my balance again.

I called my guy and told him that I have got alert, and this is where the problem arises, he advised we "die" the money and that the guy can't do anything, I asked him if he has ever "died" money sent to him before, he said no, but that this kind amount has never been sent to him before. This money is enough to make me a made man for life, even if it shared by two. Even my original 10% cut is a lot. This guy has been telling me how it takes guts to make it in life, that this is my one opportunity to make it big in life. At the sane time, I don't think there is anybody that will loose this kind money and not "do anything about it". The money is worth the risk I won't lie, I just fear for my safety.

Hmmmmm! This is a very tough one, First and foremost everything about this deal is a scam and an illegitimate biz and now the 2nd twist/angle your friend brought into it made it worse. I personally believe that even with your 10% on the long run you will still be searched for when 'breeze blow the fowl yansh' and if caught you may go to jail, and to now go with running away with the total money means not only going to jail but getting shot in the head as well. This is my personal opinion . . . . . . . But just hold on a while, some crazy, bad, non-emotional niggas here will still come to give you there professional advice. We have all sort of peeps here, even the person that sent the money to you may be reading this and just shaking his head for you!!! All the best Martyns!!!

I was able to put one and one together, the money is office money, they inflate prices and service and then move some.

Lemme ask this... Its an office money right?

Doesn't the company have an acct? Or does it mean no executive member has a current acct where such amount of money can be transferred?

Then If the answer is not on the angle that can give u safer conclusion to wat you want, then dat money is on the illegal book!

Since you agreed, I guess you name was used as one of the clients(since they inflated prices of things) so it's looks legit to the accountant(company), because if the money was transferred directly to your friend account it would have caused a red flag (i guess your friend also works in the same company with the guy that is sending the money but a junior)

My advice: hope you have documented/recorded evidence/discussion that shows you where told it was just a normal transfer in case EFCC show up later

If you don't have evidence, transfer it back to the guy that sent the money, tell them you had a change of mind(stand on it).
For that your friend, disassociate yourself from him(what kind of friends do you roll with that don't stand on their words ) he will betray you for 30pieces of copper undecided

The truth of the matter is that this is not a legitimate deal. Before the next three weeks, there MUST be a charge back and the money will be traced to your account. The guy just used your brain to cover his traces because since the introduction of BVN it has been very difficult for scammers to transact via local accounts. Dnt give him that money, keep it for your safety and keep your chat with him because police must surely come after you.

I will also encourage you to go to the bank and report so they can help you trace the source of the money.

Have you asked yourself this question:
Why didn't the guy present his account and take the 10%?
