Please Help!! A Friend Just Got Scammed by Eryyy92: 10:04pm On Jun 05, 2021
Good evening nairalanders.
Please to cut the story short, my friend wanted to pay for his school fees through his phone and ATM card. But his card was rejected so he opted to use his friends account/ATM card for the school fees payment. So he transferred the money to his friend of which he was debited unknownly, his friend is owing a debt of 150k from a loan app and his friend never disclosed this to him.
The issue now is that the guy isn't picking his calls and his house address is not traceable but he stays somewhere around waterlines in port Harcourt.
Please 60k is not a small money especially in this current hardship in the country.
Please i need advice on how to recover his money, since morning the has be crying. And his house rent is expiring soon.
Thank you.

...When I saw this, I assumed they’re together. So the friend he transferred money to is somewhere far away? How was he intending to use his card?

So he transferred the money to his friend of which he was debited unknownly, his friend is owing a debt of 150k from a loan app and his friend never disclosed this to him.

....The friend didn’t disclose to him...So how did your friend get to know there was a 150k loan?

The issue now is that the guy isn't picking his calls and his house address is not traceable but he stays somewhere around waterlines in port Harcourt.

How do you mean house address not traceable? Is the friend of your friend a stranger?

This seems a concocted story.

Sorry Mr man...
I'm not a scammer and besides this is my real nairaland account. If you think I'm a scammer, then think why i didn't create a new nairaland account for this post.
And besides I never asked anyone for money rather opinions.

There was a thread i once read in nairaland on how to track down fraudulent transactions and account but i didn't screenshot them because I thought that I or anyone close to me won't fall prey to all these kini of scams.

Says who? Misappropriation of funds, collecting under false pretence. Or you meant to say because it's not billions?
