Ghh

He gave you a job, but got paid!

PrettyCrystal:
A man has raised an alarm after falling victim to the scam of a fake Customs official on Facebook. It was revealed that a particular lady, who goes by the name Ademola Victoria on Facebook, with a profile picture which depicts her as a customs woman, has been discovered to be nothing but an Internet fraudster.

The fake account holder has been sending friend requests to people, and whoever falls into that carefully arranged scam by confirming her as a friend is liable to automatically become a prospective victim.

A young graduate, who ignorantly fell her victim, narrated to Crime Puzzle reporter how he fell for the scam.

Hear him: "My name is Bankole Olayiwola Babatunde. On May 15, 2018, one lady in customs uniform as her profile picture, Ademola Victoria, sent me a friend request, which I obliged. The next that happened was to ask me if I was interested in a customs job. As job seeker, I answered in the affirmative. She then asked me to forward my particulars to her; my curriculum vitae (cv), credentials and voter's card. Since I am in dire need of a job, I did as directed.

"On receipt of my particulars, she sent me a form via whatsapp, telling me to print and fill it, which I did. She thereafter asked me to send the sum of #3,000 into a United Bank for Africa (UBA) account with the following details: Financial Secretary, Ezekiah Imoye Lazarus, 2104136939. Still not suspicious of her wicked intent, I did.

"Thereafter, she told me to open a salary account, where the management would always pay my salaries into after being offered employment. Still not suspicious of her, I tried attempting doing as directed, but didn't succeed. However, when she tried finding out if I had opened the account, I answered in the affirmative. She then directed me to send #15,000 for application form. I told her I didn't have such an amount and pleaded with her to help me. Based on that, she sent me the form.

"What happened next was shocking to me. On Thursday, May 31, 2018, a man, Ayomide, called my father, complaining to him that I had duped him to the tune of #170,000 through a business platform known as 'bit coin'. Another person, who gave his name as Segun, called on Monday, June 4, 2018, saying I duped him in the same manner to the tune of #120,000

"It was later I realized that the fraudster had gone into my Facebook account, uploaded my pictures with which he opened another Facebook account in my name, using Bankole Olayiwola Samuel, the name on my voter's card". Bankole narrated.

Embittered Bankole has, however, cried out to Nigerians to discountenance whatever Internet business transactions proposed to them in his name, adding that it was a fraudulent ploy to fleece unsuspecting people.

next tomorrow

They better start yesterday.......

One of the reasons why I feel squeamish about uploading my pictures on social media.

By the way, who falls for these very obvious scams in this day and age?

How can you even open a salary account before getting the job?

Some people just lose their senses and become dumb in some situations. They just go to school and learn only books...no sense.

Will a genuine employer ask you top pay a dime for employment?

SHEY MUMU STILL DEY NIGERIA?

how can we be sure that you are not that custom officer who now wants to cover her/ his tracks after the mugu starts to pick sense? My thought though, just that I will consider the same possibility it I find myself in that position.
I will try to transmute the transaction by transformation

oshe11:
I still do not know why she wanted him to open a new bank acct though.....


The story didnt massage my brain ahswear

you wan learn the format abi? bad nigga

this pathetic one open his mouth wide N kal himself graduate. A graduate without common sense,is Dat one a graduate? U dance to the tune cos U believe the person behind Dat FBK name is a lady.The really fraudster is the Ipob guy EZEKIEL IMOYE LAZARUS.on ur thinking cap.

The victim is a stupid guy, it's very obvious and easy to detect a fraudulent Facebook account but yet his lust for the picture won't allow his brain to function well

Good for him.

When Shiits like this happens Banks assisted by security agencies are much more in a better position to trace those bastards called frudstars, but NO they won't.

Reason I hate Nigerian Banks with their crazy policies who can't protect interests and securities of their customers!

3 years ago, my 150k was fraudulently transferred to an unknown account till date First Bank having nothing reasonable to say.

2yrs now Gtb still can't trace one idiot that stole my sisters phone n Wallet, using her ATM card Number he transferred money to his account.

I don't believe you and your sis asked well ... just walk into the bank and tell them you wanna know which account the sent money was sent to ... then go to the any branch of that bank and complain .. if any of the banks refuses to assist you ... just make a case out of it ... report it on twitter , tagging the bank, CBN and EFCC if need be

You're Igbo?

I blame Buhari!

Same lady sent me friend request on Facebook some weeks ago, I just declined. I knew from the onset it was a scammer. These people selling cars that never existed.

There are still other things you are yet to tell us. How did your account become operational without your BVN? Have the monies that were transferred to your account been withdrawn? If affirmative, through which medium? If it’s ATM, how did she lay her hand on your ATM? Because the Bank will not release an ATM to a third party without an explicitly confirmed consent from the accountholder. If the Bank did, then there was insider connivance and they can be held responsible.

Also if the withdrawal was over the counter, there was connivance. Could it also be that the funds were transfer to another account from your account? Then the account that received the inflow can be traced to unveil those behind it.

Please tell us everything…….

You're Igbo?

Nope, Yoruba

This same lady did the same thing to me, She now bears the name Ade Veronica... she was trying to sell Rx330 for 660k to me, when I asked how to make the payment but I will first of all send my bro(inspector of police) to cross check the car... behold!! this girl stop chatting and picking my calls.

dominique:


Nope, Yoruba

Okay.

That Ademola Victoria Sent Me A Friend Request About 3 Weeks Ago, Immediately i reported the account to facebook Becos i know it's a scam account

I think according to him, she wants him to open account where they will pay Salary after he's employed

She did that so that it can look real and more convincing

take the case to the central bank of Nigeria.
they have a department that handles such issues. there's a thread on nairaland where someone who had a similar experience shared. search for the CBN department and the thread. may God help you.

Someone called me some days ago with my full name from First bank asking me to verify my BVN details.I.lambasted him.I ran d number thru callertune only to discover that he used a pseudonym to register it.Some bank officials can release details of customers to this evil men.I've lost #100k thru email manipulation (hacking).Banks can help trap them if they want to.Let's be careful on social.media.

I recently accepted one suspicious custom babe on uniform request on FB, no much pics on her profile. She has been advertising some cars and other items in their custody for sale to me via inbox. I have been inviting her for a drink so we can deal facially and relate proper but kept dodging my request and don't wanna drop her digit. I sensed a scammer behind that account but we are still on the matter.
