This story is long and like Nigerians would do, they will probably laugh but here goes.

I worked for a while for an organisation in Lagos. This is where I met my scammer. We were recruited together and started on the same day and became friends. This was in 2007. Not long after in 2008 or 2009, she left the company/country to go do a masters and we lost contact. In after saving every kobo from that job, in 2015 I used my money to cross desert and left too as part of the outflux from Nigeria.

I can’t say its been a bed of roses as hussle overseas is hard, but I have been able to make ends meet and been saving like a lunatic.

Out of the blue in 2015, this woman/scammer contacted me. She was back in Nigeria, married and in a very toxic relationship with her partner as she told the story. According to her, even though her husband worked for a big organisation in Lagos and was doing very well, she was struggling to feed. Even though she had foreign masters, he wouldn’t let her work when she tried and was making her life hell over working. When she quit he job, he wouldn’t provide for her and the child they had together.

She then pleaded with me to loan her anything, any amount to trade with. I believe I loaned her N250k not bothering what she wanted to trade. Couple of weeks later, she rang me back, returned the 250k and like 20k on top. I said thank you and moved on.

This continued, she would call for more, return on time and return with something.

As time went on, her husband left the country to join the hussle overseas. She reached out to me to say he had finally abandoned her and their kid and she was starving. She said to fund his exit, he sold all their household property, sold the apartment they lived in, borrowed money given to her for safe keeping by her aunt and basically ran with it. All this was her side of the story. As I was not friends with the husband, I could not verify what she said as true. I took pity on this horrible woman and asked what she wanted to do. She asked for a loan, she was going to start a business and wanted me to be an investor. This was in 2018. All in all I loaned her N26m between 2018-19.
This might sound like I am a rich person but no. I had no reason to doubt her. I had loaned her 10m, she returned. 15m, she returned. So I gave her the 26m and that was the beginning of my problems.
She was supposed to return 13m at the end of 2019 and the balance whenever I requested it. We agreed the return in this way so as not to crash the business she was building. I told her, add whatever you can afford on top, no obligations.
This woman who used to speak to me once or twice a week, every week since 2015 is now unreachable. She has been unreachable since Dec of 2019. She has blocked me everywhere. Whatsapp/Facebook/Instagram/Phone calls. Ofcos when i hide my number, her phone rings but she doesn't pick as she suspects its me.
As I do not reside in the country, I have been unable to do anything to her. The country I reside in has been in mad lockdown/covid since March 2020 so I cannot leave/travel.
This woman basically has all my life savings.

I thought I was saving a life as per her cries about her husband from 2015 to 2019 and investing back home while out there hussling, this person is basically about to ruin me.

This is an example of why it is wrong to help anyone in Nigeria. This wicked wicked woman has taught me my life lesson. that if you find someone suffering, it Is God’s will for the person so don’t interfere.

And before anyone insinuates that maybe I had a relationship with her, well obviously I live too far away for that to be true. Neither did we run things when we were colleagues for a year or so.

I have been reading here how EFCC has been moving all of these suspected yahoo boys, I really need help. I don’t know who needs to see this to help but don’t know what else to do.
I have hired lawyers to go after her but they are either incompetent or hampered by the Nigerian snail paced legal system.
Nothing is off the table here, post your suggestions as I will read all comments.
