I remembered this same story when a former colleague of mine was telling me to come and join him in this same company last year. He told me everything about the company here is Lagos around Ejigbo axis. He called the name of the company but couldn't remember the name again. I googled the company's name and what I saw was an eyesore. I questioned him about this company and he told me that his uncle invited him and he had to pay 540K for documentation (Appointment letter, Identity Card, Dollar Account Opening). and that the company will pay him dollar weekly. He told me that they are into many things and also told me that the company will give you accomodation, feeding 2x daily etc. But as a Lagos boy, I Japa because I can't allow someone to scam me with my hard-earned money. I haven't heard anything from the guy again ever since I rejected the offer. May God continue to guide and protect us all.. Amen 2 Likes |

Felixamos: Basically it is a cult slang, he will make a call to Benin and inform his gang what happened. They will locate the guy's family, get hold of probably his mom, cut or mess her up pretty bad, and ask her (if she is still alive) to inform the son to do the needful. That is the message that has been dropped. 1 Like |

infoleak: Few years ago, my close pal told me how this job on a rig is up and that one has to make a down payment of 500k before you get the letter of employment and redeployment. I told him this sounds like a scam. He said in this life, you use money to look for money. I requested to speak with this his classmate in secondary school who is supposed to be working there already. He gave me his number, I rang the bagga lizard and from his disjointed English, my suspicion was confirmed. Long story short, my friend and his brother paid a whopping one million naira and till today, no show. The matter don reach the guy village and the parents promised to sell a piece of land and pay my guy and his brother. Till today, no show. Beware of friends. Beware of Nigerians. 4 Likes |

SultanOfPuna: You think you're watching Hollywood movies where you can trace calls? How many times or people you know have traced calls? If tracing calls is easy, all those people writing jobs offers on walls, fences, etc would be caught. How many of your people living outside your state have you asked for the address of their company? Persin go open mouth talk nonsense full ground 1 Like |

easzypeaszy: 1. Just pray that you or anybody you know never falls into certain situation cos when u try to explain what happend people might think you are narrating a movie you just watched. 2. I brought this up cos of the advise the other fellow was seeking for and I also share this experience on his thread. 3. Experience is the best teacher, not everyone is as wise as you, if you go out there and see what people do or go through just to make money. You will just thank God for your life. 5 Likes 1 Share |

It likely true I'm nearly a victim of not that I have had such experience from the same person trying hard to convince me to do it and the fact that I don't know how to come by such amount of money 580k to be precise and Lagos was the location I didn't border to make any move about it just ignore was my savior |
