Duggedised12: You never jam 419er. It's mostly psychology. Notice the money to be taken was not even on the makeup thing and the issue about floor came up later. It's deflection and u won't even realize that was the plan all along. An area she is not specialized in? Tell me you have not taken an opportunity in an area u were not specialized in if it was a sure deal? In the Nigeria, we live in now, specialization wih just kih somebody. Better hustle and pray 419 no jam u. It's sweet to criticize and feel smart but anyone can fall mugu. 5 Likes |

tiwiex:i don jam 419 before infact on four different occasions ,one was the shell job scam as far back as 2014, another was dollar scam in a taxi,even recharge card scam and bvn scam ,so there is nothing you will tell me that i dont know. Only a greedy Or extremely dumb person who is alien to "delayed gratification" falls for this kind of scam. For the op to have agreed to be an accomplice to short change a third party without even questioning why a so called religious person will be that crooked shows just how morally bankrupt the op herself is. Lets call a spade a spade. 3 Likes |

Thank God for you!they are everywhere looking for greedy people to scam. I got this type of call with the same storyline few weeks ago,he called himself Dr Nwachukwu,same day he called my husband. He even called our full names and mentioned where we live. My first thought when i listened to him was why me? Don't you have some poor people in your family to help make millionaires. I immediately called my husband and he laughed that he got the same call and the man asked about me,called me by my name! My husband played along,called all the people he was asked to call,eventually lied to have transferred 1.2 million. The man called back after about 30 minutes and was very angry that we wasted his time and all.... 2 Likes |

the scam there is to get the sample chemical or oil as the case may be which they will later tell you its not the original one and ask you to go get from another supplier. note that they will not allow you to come to their shop, they will send someone who will be at alert to see if you are coming with police or strange individual. the person will be the one to give you the supposed chemical or oil bought on the road side, not even in a shop because they won't allow you to come to any shop. that is how they will keep recommending you to more until they close shop. by then you would have spent to an extent you will become desperate to get your money back. they usually use the name pastor and alaji to fool their victims to believe they are dealing with righteous person. 5 Likes 1 Share |

Bozzyironlady: You don't even owe anybody good English. This's not an English essay writing competition. Have you ever communicated with Chinese people online? Do they write the best English? If not, how come they're better than us that write the best English? It is our slave mentality that have us wanting to outdo white people in their own language. We cannot be in our right state of mind and want to write a foreign language better than ours. Ironically, if you visit American or even British online forums as I do, you'll be shocked we're doing better than them in English!!. If someone doesn't understand what you've written, then its safe to say the person don't actually understand English better than you, because if they do, they'll spot those grammatical errors themselves and correct them as they read on. I wrote a book and decided that no other person would edit it for any errors. The best English I learned is what I'll write, and I am totally fine by that. This's a language that was given us at gun point, and if were smart the right thing to do would be to reject it. Thank God you didn't lose your money. 7 Likes 3 Shares |

TheStarsAlign:yes but some tame it while others let it run wild ,the latter is what a larger population of Nigerians decided to do.

Bozzyironlady:you are not greedy but you agreed to connive with Mrs bola to short change her boss. You even accepted to collect 70% of the deal while mrs bola collects 30% so in your mind you think Mrs bola is a fool abi? Na only you like money, mrs bola is so dumb that she will give you such a high precentage on a deal she initiatied. You even went as far as agreeing to supply detergent, so what business does a makeup artist have with detergent?because you wanted extra ontop the 70% you will collect from the over charged services. Instead of laughing at me ,you should go and look in the mirror and do a serious introspection. You my friend are a crook and will not blink when the opportunity comes to cheat your clients. You are one of the reason this country is like this.We keep complaining every day but here you are willing to cheat another person but you skipped that part and want to play victim. Lets assume it was real ,how do you think Mrs bola's boss will feel? In the eyes of the law you are nothing but an accomplice.Think on that. 5 Likes |
