Hi nairalandeers , so yesterday a friend of mine , a very young boy messaged me to sadly inform me that someone who goes by that name or who has an account that bears that title allegedly scammed him , the boy was so traumatized that he had to be admitted in an hospital .

I didn't wanna post this until I get all the relevant information .

The brief - so last week the boy called me that he wanted an iphone xs max and I was like what's your budget he said he had 250k I was like he should up his budget if he wanted a pristine factory unlocked iPhone xs max direct from us . So barely a day later my sibling contacted me that she has two friends who wanna sell their iphone xs max barely a month old I told him about It .

Next thing he called telling me saw someone on jiji who wanna sell his for 150k I was like does it have any issue he said no that it was clean, I immediately told him it was most definitely a scam . And recommended he does due diligence and refrain from sending money to anyone he doesn't know om jiji . Dude messaged again that there was another in Lagos for around 200k thereabouts, I was like ok get the relevant information about the seller and I have contacts who will go and physically inspect the device . The boy was like ehn hope they won't snatch his deal , I laughed you never sure about the legitimacy of the deal you don they suspect .

Lemme hasten to the end . That deal went south and another that the seller claimed to be in a village somewhere in edom state .

So the boy called me that he saw another 220k I think 512 gig i was like what " hmmmm be careful o , but if it's a good deal you can go ahead sha , he was like he has someone around the the seller that he would send to facilitate the deal , I was like ok that's good. Only for the boy to text me yesterday that he was scammed I initially thought he was kidding , until he started sending me screenshots and all . I've already suggested he take the issue to his bank and the recipients bank .

Now the boy is blaming me for something I said .
When he said he was scared I was like , he should dispel any sense or pessimism from his mind and stay positive . I dont know where that one equate to send money give person for internet. I even suggested he gets the imei so we could run a paid check on the device before anything.

Anyways anybody who knows the thief should do well to assist or update me. I'll be attaching his picture and contact

Very funny fellow. There's one on Nl Bgmedia claiming to run a lending platform Kenan. He's scammer in the guise of helping single mums and divorced mothers only to end up filling a useless form that will give him your banking details.

Scammers everywhere. Let's be careful
