PDM Lagos Shipping/ib-ovat GROUP Scam Alert!!! Don't Fall Victim!!! by engkorede(m): 1:09am On May 05, 2018
I've been doing e-commerce for sometime now but I just got scammed by this guy. He specializes in Lagos door-to-door pickup and delivery.

How I got his contact
I went to CVM in Ikeja, Lagos to collect my stock a while back and I have an order to deliver within Lagos so I needed a Lagos courier. I asked around at CVM but to no avail. After sometime, one guy came to collect his stock too and luckily, he gave me PDM Shipping's (Philip Emmanuel Ovat) contact when I asked him. That's how we started doing business.

The smooth business
Business was smooth for about 4 orders. They already made payments and just delivery is left. He delivered these orders and this made me feel he's a trustworthy person...until he scammed me.

How he scammed me
On April 20th and 21st, I had 3 orders to be delivered on the 21st, they are all cash on delivery orders. So I contacted him and he agreed to deliver and collect the cash. The cash was NGN10,000 each (NGN30k total) and he billed me NGN3500 for shipping. So we agreed that he will remove his cash and send me the rest.

He delivered the orders, collected the money and told me he will send the cash on Monday. That day was a Saturday. And I agreed. On Monday, April 24th, I chatted him and the first thing he told me was hope you have received your cash. But I haven't, so I told him.
Then he said he is in Lasma's office and he'll call me back. I didn't hear from him till evening so I chatted him up again and he started giving another excuse.

Long story cut short, he stopped picking my calls or responding to my whatsapp chat since April 28th. Up till now, there is no show for my NGN26,500.

Please don't fall his victim. Screenshots of whatsapp chats coming up shortly. I even told him I will get him arrested, yet, no response.
