Hello learned members of nairaland.

I invested a substabtial amount into this guy known to all as legit (truely he was). For a period of two months after which I was to get a supposed amount of return but then things went wrong.

Actually, am not alone on this. We're many with varying amounts of money of which mine was quite huge. At first, he ran a program with the funds, of which he got huge returns from and paid back with interest. But greed came in and he did things the wrongway and lost.

Before and after the investment, even after he lost everything, he promised to pay back. But the thing now is, it seems he is now having a second thought cos we've been very patient with him. He has turned off his phone and even wen available, doesn't pick up. And never replies messages.

So the question is, how do I follow him up to make sure he pays up? Any procedure involved? A friend recommended that I go through the EFCC and the other through police.

What do u guys think? And what are the steps I should take? Thanks as your contributions will be greatly appreciated.

what type of business?
I hope it's not a ponzi scheme

You didn't tell us when you were investing,so therefore relocate to any village in Oyo state because you are ON YOUR OWN.

he breached the agreement by investing in another thing entirely with returns in milliseconds knowing fully well the risk involved bro.

This is called greed. And all man pays for the consequences of their actions.

As for the fraud, him switching off and turning a blind eye, showing no concern at all afterwards is fraud.

You got what you deserved from your greedy foolish state of mind. Instead of going legit, you wanted to burn bridges with BS get rich quick schemes. Go cry a river to those who give a damn. Everyday people on NL are warned about all these scams yet you no wan hear word!

Oga stop taking things personal. Since you had nothing to offer me in the area of advice or steps to take, u could have easily stayed clear instead of blocking the space for those who can. Did i tell you its a get rich quick scheme? Where is your comment coming from pls?

Sorry, my bad, I didn't know it was a feel good thread hoping to cheer you up.... This was my advice to you take it or leave it.. If the biz was legit and not some BS get rich quick scheme, then you wouldnt have lost EVERYTHING just like that. And you could have gone to the proper channel to get your money back. Instead of coming here crying like a kid, as if you didn't know the possible consequences of your foolish act.
