"The goal of capital letters is granting value to a proper name, highlighting a word or phrase to catch the reader´s attention. Capitals letters are used at the beginning of a line or paragraph, followed by a punctuation mark in the case of proper names."

OP, above is what capital letters are meant for. Except you lack proper capitalization skills, you should avoid writing in all caps as texts written in such a manner are actually less legible.

Meanwhile, thanks for sharing.

That one dey learn. Few days ago one man excused me, he was holding a shovel and trowel and those tools ala bricklayers, then he said he went to the site but no work. He asked me to give him anything that he needs to feed his family. Fine I did.

Guess what? Two days later he approached me with the same format. I guess these guys just go borrow tools for different vocation and use to beg money. Thats the new format now. I say make I tell una.

Who knows, next time him fit carry plumbing or electrical tools.

Besides, a paragraph written in capital letters is harder to read than one in small letters. You can confirm it yourself by reading this post and then try to read Op's.

Richmond500 is the patron saint of all those styles of scams.
That boy is a criminal. He uses the sewing machine format.

In this kind of formats, he post a long sympathy thread with a female moniker and attach sewing machine in the story. The aim of the sewing machine is just to present the story as that of a female and so that people wouldn't bother much in reaching out to give money (psychologically, sewing machine is attached to females)

After that, richmond500 comes out and claims he sympathize with the female moniker. He observes few comments then comes out to with a psychological attack by saying people on nairaland are stingy and don't want to help.

Then he claims to have sent the female moniker a huge some. grin this gingers the innocent Nairalanders to send the female profile some money.


If I get 15 likes on this post, I will post more information.
Names
Account numbers
Phone numbers
And the threads which are exhibits /evidence of the scams pulled

wtf? You think I was behind that moniker?
I actually sent her money but I didn't want to make it known as I don't do that begging stuffs, cos I always feel ashamed when I brag. It was on the thread that I'll send her 20k but since she lied I'll send her money but not all,
Since I already promised her if u check, u will see where I said that
