jamesbridget13: Thanks a lot. I appreciate your contribution. The bank's ask me to wait for 5-7 working days. But I would keep this your advice in mind just in case. I can still see people flocking to the scammer's page thinking the store owner is still the one operating the account. I don't know if what I'm doing is wrong. But I don't have the time to start warning each one. And once it continues, I see it as what would help my case. Should it get to court, I can also sue the store owner for negligence and the scammer for damages both psychological and financial. God bless nairalanders. 2 Likes |

Ishilove: Abi. I'm surprised myself. After boasting of 10k. I deflected it for his assistance which he was insinuating. Nairaland men... Different strokes. Thanks to everyone though. I have removed all screenshots. Life probably made it happen to avoid a bigger mess that might be on the way. 3 Likes |

Champneys: Retrospectively, you've just described who you see when you look at the mirror. |

Champneys: I have laughed like this before when I thought others were dumb for being scammed. Karma... |

jahlove4jah: Attached. What I'm thinking ia that someone else should contact him on whatsapp pretending to want a phone from somewhere like Ibadan. Then when he concludes and sends his account details. The person should just say that it's not going through. So he would be forced to send another account. Because I'm guessing the former might be a decoy account. His greed would force him to send his own account. What do you think? |

Crime / I Was Scammed Yesterday. Please, What Can I Do? by AchievGreatness: 10:49am On Jun 04, 2020 |
Good morning all. I had to create another account because I know that if people check my past posts and topics, they wouldn't believe such an educated individual could get scammed. Here's the succinct narrative: A former client from Delta sent me money to help him get an iPhone here in Lagos. He sent me the money because he's not new to me. Usually, I have people I buy phone's from. I just contact them on whatsapp. I don't go to computer village again since I could fall into the wrong hands. Most of the products from my trusted sources came with far exorbitant prices. But just that morning, I saw Instagram suggesting that I follow a page (which I have the screenshot). I diligently scrolled through and saw that they have been operating since July 2019. And I saw people's comments and video of people buying at their store. So I contacted the number. He told me they have 2 branches. Agungi and Shagamu. He gave it at a lesser price compared to others. In fact, he sent me their price list, and everything was professional. I even asked for their CAC certificate and he sent it. When I saw the price of another phone, I told a lady about it and she also was interested. Now I told him I wouldn't pay till I see the product. That I would go to their store on the Island because I stay on the mainland. He then said it's only available at Sagamu and it would take me over 2 hours to get there. I said I was going to go there. He then said I could pay half and he would deliver the product to the man. I insisted on going. Unluckily, the man sent another message that hour that I should do everything possible for him to get the phone the next day. No delays. I knew it would never work if I set out around 3pm for Sagamu. So I sent the money. The other lady said she's even at a friend's place not too far from Sagamu. I asked her to go to the store. She refused. So I knew I just had to send the money. Later she said she'll go. On getting there, the owner of the store said her phone was stolen a few days back and that they have been using her IG to scam people. At first, I wanted to exert my anger on an individual who behaved with such negligence. But I chose to focus on this guy. He doesn't pick calls anymore. He'll read my message online with no replies. I ran to both banks. Mine and his to report before they closed but I could see from their body language as though it's a lost course. I called customer care. Went on their social handles as well. Now, last night someone contacted me that he saw that I was following that account. That he was scammed 6days ago from the same account. I have screenshota from that person as well. He sent him the same bank details. The same phone number and whatsapp number. I know i would get insulted for posting this. I insult people too when they act dumb. I never knew someone like me could ever get scammed. Please, what can I do. The amount is over 100k. The man contacted me this morning. I don't know what to tell him. Please advise me...
