Hello all, this is to bring to your notice an event which i by today believe to be fraud by one dude who has the user name adudu208@gmail.com on nairaland. it happened that i saw a post by him of Dec 7, 2009 for an Iphone.  He claims to reside in PHarcourt and we decided to do our transaction on pure trust. I credited his account to the sum of 50k on Monday, 4th January, 2010 as he said he had parceled the iphone through ups. That was the last day i heard from him till date. He claims he works with Diamond bank. That has been proved wrong as Diamond bank searched through their archive and said no one like that existed. Meanwhile, i have been to the bank i paid into, today and they have asked me to watch it till close of work for friday and that if the parcel doesnt show up, the bank will follow up on a letter which it said i will present monday morning. They promised they were going to use all legal means to get my money. For security reasons, i will not state the name of the bank since investigation will soon commence. Moreover, at UPS Courier service which he claimed to have used, they assured me to go on with remedial actions as no parcel was pending from Port Harcourt.
My main motive of putting up this alert is to make nairalanders beware of any similarities aforementioned and to inform me of any reasonable hint. Meanwhile, the bank has indicated that the police will work alongside there team once i am sure it has to be a fraud. Thanks all. I will be willing to answer any questions here. Lastly, his number till present is not available any longer. his number is supposed to be 08138945846. Pls any useful suggestion from the house is highly welcomed.

Really a pathetic case, trust is essentially a very scarse commodity in our land, I stumbled across a site recently that tries to operate like ebay in Nigeria and I was just wondering how it is ever going to work in this clime where people are relatively less trustworthy.
Well glad to know you are doing everything possible to retrieve your money and it,s a wake up call to everyone to watch out for online deals here.
Thank you.

What a pity!

What a pity when people stoop so slow as to use nairaland as a means of committing fraud!My Brother take heart.

thanks all. I intend going to the bank later in the day

FOR FUTURE BUYERS.what i di when i bought a laptop frm a NLer was that i hooked up with him and then we dealed.it made me 1.saw him. 2.saw d physical state of what i wanted to buy. 3.saw his contact place. 4.paid him immediately. so i think it is good for both parties. thank u

Am so sorry! i guess because u both are not in the same state thats why u send him the OWO but why did u proof such a mugun without having tracking details of the package b4 making the transaction. to all take note of this point in such deal like this,
