Smh for you... So I can just go to your bank and tell them to block all your accounts abi...

Yea, u can. So long as Money was paid from ur account into that account, u can request for a blockage or a reversal. Tell him d acct is used by a fruadster to defraud people. To make it easy, report d matter tp Police, request for a Police report, then wit that they can go to d bnk to instantly blk d acct

Now you are talking. You just going to the bank and telling them someone scammed you and you want them to block the account will never work... You need legal back up...

Sorry for your loss, what I have noticed from a scam victim is GREED, yes, no way in hell would you get an HP laptop of core i5, 5gb ram and 750hdd at that rate, even used one cannot go as low as #120k, you knew that but you thought it's an 'awuf'. I buy a lot of stuffs online, from Craigslist to eBay, and in many cases you will experience something like this especially on Craigslist, but one thing always keep me safe which is ; IF IT LOOKS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE, THEN BE VERY SUSPICIOUS, in about 90% of such 'Good deal' they are scam.
And lastly, never pay in advance by PayPal or bank transfer until you receive your stuff unless it's eBay or Amazon.
Good luck next time!
You are right though. But my own issue is that this kind of situation makes it hard for people to trust some online market consultants like me. I have gotten several people saying they cannot pay for what they are yet to receive from Jumia when after they try to order themselves requires pay before delivery. But it is all good sha, the OP should be guided againt such fraudulent transactions in future.

Yeah, I don't trust anybody online when doing transaction unless it's a platform like jumia, eBay or Amazon, those organisations are responsible for anything you pay for, your money cannot lost, but when using a platform like jiji or olx, you interact directly with buyer and you guys have to meet and see the stuff you buying before paying, it's safe that way and stay away from a ridiculously cheap products, that's their trap!

There are Nairaland Members selling laptops and have shop addresses confirmed, Sometimes I wonder why people love to learn the hard way.
