I sent some crypto coins to +234 912 695 3219 (Miracle Jason Agada), he has since refused to credit the account number I sent to him and refused sending back the coins. Na small money but what if I had sent to him the amount of coins he requested for?

He thinks he is wise but he is not, unless he does not use his number again.

How do one avoid being scammed when trading crypto off the Apps?

I think the best way is to look for a reliable escrow, someone that both of you guys can trust.

One yeye guy claiming to be the super hacker that can hack anything. So I contacted him to help me recover my gmail account which needs access codes I forgot to write. He promised heaven+ hell, he's the man for the job. That was how I paid 5k to the guy only for him to ignore me forever. Dude can't hack shit. I learnt my lesson the hard way. The guy still on this platform advertising &setting traps for his next victims. God go punish him o

The day I was scammed at alaba still amazes me. I went with my uncle then someone from imeko afon in ogun state and also an electrician by profession(I said dis so u won't think I am Igbo) to buy flat screen tv. So because of all the negative things we have heard about alaba and the selling of fake things we where very careful and where avoiding the igbos, so one Yoruba boy approached us and since he was Yoruba and my uncle could relate with him well, we decided to follow him to his place. He took us to one place like that with many Yoruba boys there with lots of refurbished TV's, so after we selected one and my uncle said we should all go together and test it at an electrician place that is how those guys there said we should give them deposit first. That is how our money enter one chance
you dont know alaba obviously. LOTS of igbos use yoruba names and speak fluent igbo, you wont know they are thieves.

Yes, some few years ago by one Yoruba guy. He told me to register for Custom recruitment online, which I did, not knowing it is a fake site. I was requested to pay money to continue although the money was small. I paid the money only for the guy to come later and start laughing at me.
I don't think there is any successful Yoruba guy that made it without stealing other people's things or duping people.
One Igbo guy still call me recently say he be Opay staff to send OTP back to him

If you need help in tracking a scammer you can holla me,I can help you get their bvn blocked and the scammer will have no option than to sign an undertaking instructing his bank to refund.

Gone are the days when scammers go scot free.

I can also help track mobile phones,track location of a scammer through his or her phone number between cell towers.

As long as you still have evidences of transactions.

Guaranteed.

WhatsApp no on my signature.

I hope you're not another potential scammer

The next thing he said if i have a sportybet account, i said yes. He send me a video where in funded N1,000 and it turned to N100,000.

so he sent me a link to sign-in. when i looked closely i discovered that it was not the official sportybet website.
