I think I will. I even asked him if it was Ebola but he said it wasn't and mentioned West Nile virus. Me I don't know if West Nile virus occured in Nigeria earlier this year so I just kept mute and decided to find out.

The guy is so much in love and part of me feels that this will break his heart and lead him to do something drastic. It's so troubling to me and a part of me just wants to waka far and act like it's not my business but another part is burning with anger at the scammers

On Your Own. Oyo

ALEX182:


I'm in US. The guy is a white guy. I'm a Nigerian.

If you dont want to tell him directly, make an anonymous call to the police or the feds with his information and explain whats up

He is so in love and being scammed like this. You prefer him to continue suffering both emotional and financial scam. it is better to save him now

No body gets $2,000 disability check, the max for 2020 is $1,300.

Cuck and bull story!

If he is your patient the next day, please tell him. Try salvaging our name in your corner biko. Nigeria is having a very bad reputation here. Imagine trying to do wire transfers to Nigeria for days and all the banks I’ve approached refused, even common wellsfargo.

Why do you need to go to the bank to send money to Nigeria... when there are many online money transfer companies that easily do that and you receive your naira within seconds?

ALEX182:


Chai. Common Wells Fargo o

Naija dey fall hand nor be small

As for you, hope you don't plan to go to Nigeria ever again since you regret being one?
Nonsense.

Let him be aware he's been scammed because if he eventually finds out himself, he won't trust you again been from the same nationality with the scammer.

It just depends on how you brief, don't be too blunt.

ALEX182:


I said, matured responses. This happened this afternoon at work bruh. It is really troubling me and that's why I asked for advice. I don't have time for fake tales. Ok.

Don't mind the idiot. Many of them are plenty on this platform. Every issue is a fake story to them. They'd tell you its a lie if you tell them their mother gave birth to them too.
All manner of Psyco on nairaland.

About the issue at hand, tell the guy asap. Or he might end up committing suicide at the long run. Save a soul. Tell him.

Chitchat doesn't mean phone chat conversation.

My old NL crush. Do you remember me?

Please tell him they are popping champagne on his head.

How have you been?

The latest article I see on WNV regarding Nigeria is from 2018.

I can relate to being in such fix but at the end of the day I think it's just right to do the right thing.
See it this way, eventually he's going to find out right?

Which would you prefer; that he finds out now, hopefully able to deal with the pain that comes with scam and betrayal or that he finds out much later after selling all he has just to meet the demand (which is now even more than supply)?


If you're very concerned about you being involved and the uncertainty, maybe you involve a third party that you both know or someone you think can step in as a mock investigator that'll show some proofs and all to him while also observing from afar.

You're smart.

Ewu. What is there to be proud about being a Nigerian.

Rubbish.

Baba just tear the job before your American patient becomes a fisherman overnight. Are you a doctor or nurse that you are saying your American patient?

Please tell him, it’s on you to tell him, you have done your part, it’s on him to help himself with the information gained

The white guy na pure Mumu, like say dem never sabi how Nigerians be, story sounds somehow tho, don't tell him nathin, he will find out by himself. make he dey Mumu dey go

Don't tell him yet o!! Let it not turn against you, you have your own life to live. I have tried it before and it bounced back on me, I told the person because of pity and at the end, he angrily called the other party, I became a bad person. Ever since I don't involve myself in matters that does not concern me or the aftermath will not affect me o.

ALEX182:


I'm in US. The guy is a white guy. I'm a Nigerian.

Please do the right thing, baby and tell him

You can speak with your supervisor about how you feel. You may want to clarify if its ethically correct for you to discuss this with your patient.
Remember, this could eventually affect the mental health of your patience, therefore the principle of beneficence may be considered here.
Just do something, anything to save that young man.

ALEX182:
So I have this American patient who I recently came across. He's a fat dude who is like in his late 40s but has a very jolly and likeable character. I introduced myself and we got talking afterwards.

After a while of chitchat, he asked me where I was from. I told him to take a guess and he said said, you sound like you're Nigerian. I told him (regrettably) that I was Nigerian. He started smiling and told me that he had a Nigerian girlfriend and that we both had similar accents.

He then started telling me recent occurrences that had befallen his girlfriend in Nigeria. He said the lastest story was that she was in Abuja and as she was on her way to the airport in a taxi, the taxi had an accident and she was seriously injured and had to be rushed to the hospital. He said that the hospital demanded money before treatment started and he had to hustle about $4000 and send to her in order for treatment to start.

He said that after a week of her being in the hospital, they wanted to discharge her despite her still being in pain. Because she had exhausted all the $4000 on treatment, he said the hospital had threatened to discharge her on the streets and he was trying to borrow more money to see if he could send it to her so they could continue with her treatments.

He furthermore told me that the girlfriend said that she was a Nigerian American citizen who was currently stuck in Nigeria due to her passport having expired and also due to Covid lockdown at airports in Nigeria. He said she had asked him for $300 to renew her US passport from American embassy in Nigeria.

Another thing that he told me was that just before covid struck, there was a similar pandemic which happened in Nigeria early this year and that his girlfriend had contracted the disease and he had to send her $2000 for treatment. Right now he said he's broke but is waiting for like $2000 disability check from the US government next week which he will send to her as soon as the money clears.

As he was telling me this tale, I was so angry with Nigerians and how they take advantage of people in love to scam them. I wanted to swear for the scammers


I'm at a dilemma here. Do I tell him that he's being scammed by Nigerians or do I continue to be professional and just ignore it. Because I don't want him to think I'm involved with it because these oyinbo people can turn everything on your head and accuse you that is your people in conjunction with you that are scamming him. They are that crazy.

The good part of me wants to help him but I'm hesitant that it may turn out bad for me. Please matured responses.

"Im only saying it once, you lost", I told Wole.

Nothing like that in Nigeria.

Kindly update us after you break the news to him.

Thanks for saving him.

Lol. You know nothing

So if I made $6000 monthly and we know that disability is 60% of your monthly checks, so I max out at $1300 a month huh?

Go sit down somewhere boy. I didn't say economic relief checks which the govt sent out to everyone. I said DISABILITY.

Ediot.

So how are you sure that the people scamming him are truly Nigerian.othee African people can use Nigeria as a cover up .

Which makes them display their dumbness and stupidity with arrogance

ALEX182:


Thank you my sista. Some people can't really comprehend English Language.

Tell him to contact nogofallmaga.org to do some deep OSINT on his "girlfriend" for him. He'll fall out of love quickly and fall back into his senses. I'm outta here.

Hustle bosoms motherfuckerrrrrz

Please tell him, at least you r passing a message that not all of us are scammers.

Bro, I guess you are either a nurse, doctor, LVN OR UAP... As a nurse, it is part of your duty as patients advocate. Your patient has shared some information with you, which you find troubling. It's either you tell him right away or escalate your concerns to your ward manager. Whichever way you choose, you would be doing the right thing....

Also for the sake of humanity. It's like seeing a fellow humam being in a pit,and you walked past him without helping. Leaving him in a pit without offering help amounts to wickedness (lack of compassion).


Please tell him...

Those are Slawomir kindreds,digging holes of retributive justice for their generations unborn.
