And it's a lady oh! (Or so ur profile says) wetin happen,na? Oga no day do u well?

First off, greetings to all true Nigerians in this thread. Una Twale!!!
Then, I want to chastise you guys. Why are we so emotionally vulnerable and easily influenced?
Isn't it clear that the person who started this thread, posting rubbish, did so with the sole intention of inciting hatred and division by piting one side against the other?
Haba, it's an obvious strategy that's as old as time na!
The Op may not even be a northerner, or a Nigerian for that matter. He simply wants to spark outrage, and we are all playing his game.
This is how wicked and selfish politicians set us up against each other for their own selfish interests and we play into their hands without asking questions!
We don pass that level na! I expect to see lots of LOL!!! As we laugh the demented fellow to scorn!!
He doesn't represent the north!! He is a separatist himself. I love the north!! I love the south! I love the east!! I love the west!!
God bless us all! God bless Nigeria!!

I'll start by offering one of the most important advice/task I give to anyone who comes to me wanting to alter their bodies NATURALLY in any way...

OBSERVE WHAT YOU EAT!! OBSERVE!!

This is a huge secret I just let out for FREE!

Now it might not sound like much of a secret, but believe me, it is!

You don't know how powerful this is, until you've tried it.

Now, the simple truth is, a good percentage of what you eat is responsible for how you look.
Genetics, body type, health and environmental factors, exercise/fitness all play key roles too.. but what you eat, how you eat, when you eat, are very important!

Your diet takes a whole 50%, exercise/fitness/workout takes 40%, and the others take 10% (real fact! In my opinion) of responsibility, for how you look.

So, you should start taking a closer look at what you eat!

I know you might think 'Oh, here we go again with the diet thingy!!' but no, hold on now... This isn't just some new diet program.
This is the remedy people pay thousands of naira to hear. This could prevent serious diseases for you in the future, if you are prone to being overweight.
You won't believe how many people die from weight and bad nutrition related illnesses..heart failure, heart diseases, breathing defects, cancers, kidney failure, you name them!

You who wants to ADD weight, are also not exempted! Low blood sugar, stomach ulcers and damaged organs are equally a result of bad diet!

Now, back to body goals.

First thing I instruct my new clients to do, is to get a FOOD DIARY! In their phones, or a book and a pen, with which they are to record every single thing the eat or drink, everyday, in real time.
So, you eat a snack, write it down. You drink water, write it down. You eat lunch, write it down, in detail. Every thing that you ate.
This, is the best way to start working on transforming your body. By being accountable!
This way, it becomes very easy to pin point the things that need working on.

If you have more body fat, than you would like, there is a high probability, that you consume more calories than you need.
Now Many overweight people would swear, that they eat very little. Well, the problem is not how often you eat, but when you do eat, what is the content your food? How many calories are there?

If you want to ADD WEIGHT, i.e you are more skinny than you would prefer, then the chances are, that you are consuming less calories than you need.
You might say, 'but I eat a lot o!'. Well like I said, it's not what you ate, it's the content! The calorie content!

So, we googled a few facts about body building, and with what little facts we could gather, we went about searching for a good gym.

We found a few, worked out here and there for a bit, but we never seemed to be making any head way.

We could hardly tell whether we were doing the right workouts, the right way or not.

We grew increasingly discouraged and frustrated, when by a stroke of fate and luck, a couple of months into our search, we came across a FITNESS COACH.
At first he was reluctant to take us up, I guess because of how skinny we were. He was also doubting our dedication to the cause. He didn't want to waste his time training people who weren't ready to see the program through.

However, after a while he agreed to train us. He was really good at what he does, and from then on, we knew we were on the right track! We had finally found our remedy!

Results took a couple of months to become visible, but with his constant encouragement and counselling, we made it through the muscle aches and often overwhelming pains.
He also taught us about nutrition, what to eat to add weight, when to eat, how to combine foods, what supplements to take, how to make our own supplements, e.t.c

Fast forward a couple years later, I'm a gym instructor, fitness coach and personal trainer, weighing 75kg (I'm still building). My workouts have been off an on, there have been a lot of distractions, but here is the single most important lesson:

ALWAYS BOUNCE BACK OUT OF A RELAPSE!

So, what was the point of Sharing my personal story? I assume you might or might not be eyeing a career in the fitness industry. So why the story?

Well, this piece is aimed at ANYONE who is seeking to achieve a specific body goal.
Do you want to lose weight? Maybe you are a man and you are not so proud of your potbelly or a lady, shy of your 'Christain Mother arms'?
Or you want to add some weight, maybe pack on a bit of bulk or muscle mass because, well, you are thin like I was?
Or you just need that perfect six packs to flaunt at the swimming pool?... Whatever your body goal is, whatever perfect body picture you have in your mind, it's totally achievable!

You just need the right advice, guidance, and the determination to follow through, and you are almost at your destination! Time is all that remains.

Now, you may have tried different workout programs in the past, different diet plans, crash diets, maybe even registered at the gym a couple of times, to no avail. Well, you are not alone. I have come across many clients with the same experience.
Like I said, you need the RIGHT information. Not just any information! One Size doesn't fit all. Sometimes you just need a workout regimen made specifically for you! And you alone. To fit your needs.

Well having said all, let's dive into what lessons I have to offer.

Hi there. I've been a gym instructor for over 7years now and a certified personal trainer for over 2years and while I LOVE doing business over the internet e.g affiliate marketing, helping people achieve their body goals is my other passion!

Here is my story. At age 17, I weighed 37kg!! 37kg!! Just imagine how skinny I was! People hardly bullied me in school though, because I knew how to make friends with bigger boys, but that didn't stop me from feeling inadequate, especially because I had a beautiful girlfriend (I'm physically cute ) So insecurity set in.

She left me some years after high school for a bigger dude, and this is no joke! This was my second real relationship at that age ( I started loving early ) and we had dated for 5years. (We dated throughout high school and two years after)
I nearly went into depression, but God had provided me with an elder brother, who understood and helped me cushion the shock!

He too was skinny like me, and together we made up our minds to change the narrative. To change our story! No more were we going to continue feeling like victims! Being afraid of the possibility of people picking on us! ( It's not a good feeling as a guy to know you can't defend yourself). So we made up our minds that we were going to 'get muscles'. We must 'grab!'

So, First Off, what is blogging?

i’ll say, a blog is a frequently updated website, updated with information that’s usually presented in an informal manner. This is usually done with the aim of passing across information or one’s personal views to the readers. Blogs, started as weblogs in the 90’s. it started as a personal journal or dairy which people published online to share personal experiences or perspectives on issues.

However, since then blogs have grown into an effective way to do business and make money. This is done by presenting information about products and services in many creative ways and making money from such information. The process of writing a blog post and publishing it, is called blogging.

There are various ways to make money with a blog, such as:

Affiliate marketing
Google Adsense
Selling your own products (e.g eBooks) or services
Renting out advert space on your pages
Guest posting.

Of all of these methods, affiliate marketing is the most effective for a newbie. Why? Because the other methods require that you have some kind of already established presence and authority in your chosen Niche. For a more insight and helpful info check my blog post https://coachingaffiliate.com/how-to-start-a-blog-for-profit/

Hi Fellow Nairalanders. I made certain contributions to similar topics on various threads concerning making money online, blogging etc, and the feedback i've been getting have been quite encouraging.

So, i decided to create this thread, basically to teach the absolute beginner how to start a blog or you tube channel. Also to teach the different ways to make money online with it, using Affiliate marketing and E-mail marketing. I'll also be highlighting tricks to the trade, hidden methods that the pros use to make a steady passive income.

I have been a blogger for over 4 years now. Over that time, I've started two very profitable blogs, and eventually sold them on Flippa for a healthy sum. However, I haven't been as consistent in blogging, as i would have liked, because i'm also involved in a number of other profitable ventures online, such as dropshipping and mini-importation. I'm also a successful web designer (not really a developer, i'm still working on that).

Now, before I proceed, i want to give a word of caution and a disclaimer. This thread is geared towards the absolute beginner who wants to learn affiliate marketing and create a blog or you tube channel, and build it, till it starts yielding money. If you are an experienced blogger, affiliate marketer, or infopreneur, feel free to contribute. But, please, everybody's idea and questions are welcome.

Also, We are all learners (myself included), some of us just happen to know more than others. The info I'll be giving, have been verified by me, to the best of my abilities.

Having said that, let's start.

Originalsly:


.... added to this.... they are shipped to you via DHL ?.... that charges an arm and a leg? ... but you will still make good profit? Even so.... why rush shipment via DHL when you said in business patience is a virtue?

There is a reason why scammers try to chat privately with potential victims.

@ topic..... make stuff to sell.... or buy stuff and resell. Whatever the product ... it must be in demand... and sort of exclusive.

You ever heard of myus .com? Go and check their shipping options. I ship through them and I can give you my virtual USA address to verify.
Infact I'm done talking to ignorant people who don't know ish about modern business, but they just want to talk!!!
They will not ask questions!! Just open mouth waaaaaaa... This is my last post here. Go on talking.

faithnte:
I have not reported to the police. The best channel is the EFCC, he is not in Nigeria and it is money issue.

Efcc is good. My wife has a similar issue, but it's being handled by the police HQ. EFCC works too. They will get a court order and freeze his account first. Let me not say too much. But i really wish you victory!! Nigerians disgracing Nigeria everywhere!!! Is this the first country where things are hard,ni? If they make money now it's not like they'll use it to do something productive, just to squander it in Cubanna! Yet, they'll be shouting government, government!!!!

nice

faithnte:
I am a blogger on 1000nairadaily.com, sometime in 2019, a purportedly Dubai-based man (Segun Aina), reached out to me that he loved my content and told me about what he does (e-commerce), which he offered to teach me for free. At the time I was already into eCommerce, and didn't know how to reject his offer, but accepted to be friends with him (by letting him into my inner space, where we chat and talk about private stuff). Unknowing to me that this 'Dubai-based" Nigerian is making his plot into my finances.

During the period of him being my acquaintance, he has borrowed 50,000 up to four times from me and has always paid back, mostly after a reminder (he never paid on his promises). His reason for borrowing this money is that he was sending it to his people in Nigeria, and to avoid forex issues, I felt he it was an honest demand, and I was always to his aid.

This guy runs a Global eCommerce website known as viscenshop.com, little did I know that he uses this site for scams, he never delivers his item, and I have evidence of this. Sometime late 2019, he requested for my Payoneer account to help him receive payment from the buyer, that his payment process (Vogue Pay) was giving issues. I asked some questions and told him I would not want to bear any liability of any form, which he promised me. I gave him my Payoneer account and after about 3 successful and many other failed payments, my Payoneer account was blocked by Payoneer on an account of violation of their policy. At the same time, I had about two complaints to my email, asking for their shipping update. If you know how Payoneer works, payment can be made via a Payoneer registered email, and that was how they got my email.

I responded to one that I was only helping someone receive a payment that he should refer to the website viscenshop.com for his claims that I am not a party and that even my Payoneer account has been banned. The person responded that he has texted the email on the website several times with no response. At this point, I had to contact Mr. Segun and asked for clarification and he responded that I should block the person that he is from the Philipines and that they are fraudulent. That they do purchase an item on his website with fake credit cards and would at the same time open a dispute when they do not receive their item. Again, I have personal business to do, and wasn't really interested in making further investigation, so, I took his word for it.

Fast-forward to 2020, this Mr. Segun contacted me in a haste and said it was urgent I help him report a Facebook group on the account that they are groups of cyber attackers who had purchased item on his website with a fake credit card, at this point, I was already getting tired of this guy but I was ready to give him a benefit of doubt as an acquaintance, and in a way, I wanted to be polite to him always. That event passed and in 2021, he struck me.

I import goods from China and I sell with Facebook advertising, In Feb 2021, just in the early days of the Chinese holiday, I tested a product (it was an aluminum manual juicer), and the product converted in an unimaginable way, that I was ready to pay any possible price to import this item in defiance of the wait that was made inevitable as a result of the holiday. As a reason, I contacted Mr. Segun Aina, since he has told me about his age-long success in the eCommerce space, I decided to ask for his help to import this item. And without hesitation, he told me he imported items at any point in time, including during holidays, with the help of his Chinese partners. I was very excited but afraid.

I had the feeling I could be scammed but with the profit I had calculated ahead of time, assuming this product gets to Nigeria and I hit the sales button. I delayed for about two days, and asked this guy a variety of questions, with the intention to get him pissed off. But this guy responded with all diligence and patience, even showed me the specification and packaging of the item that I told him I wanted to import. At some point, I was comfortable enough to take the risk. I discussed with another of my friend, who perhaps would have shared this item with me if it had arrived in Nigeria, as we have done for previous items (but not with Mr. Segun but with Tugrow1688). My friend was ok with it and wished me luck, nevertheless, I didn't ask him to pay anymore yet, I wanted to take the risk myself and rather share with him when the item arrives in Nigeria.

As a result, I made a transfer of 214,500 to this guy, this was to cover 50 pieces of the product, as I felt this was a more risky but reasonable amount of risk I should take for this item with Mr. Segun, who I have had a mixed feeling of. Mr. Segun gave me a guaranty that his agent would make a video inspection of item 48hrs after payment. I decided to stay mute after payment and confirmation, and after five days, I asked this guy about the video update, and then he said his supplier was having time with family during the holiday that she might need more time. I objected, and remind him of the fact that I know my way to import items from China, he gave me a guarantee that I would get this item delivered to Nigeria during the holiday. This guy did not respond to my chat for about 48hrs and then responded that I will get an update before month-end. The scariest part is that he started to get infuriated, that he said, I was disturbing him...

At this point, I already decided I was being worked on. I gave him another two weeks, and he didn't talk about the item of which he had promised I would get delivery in seven days at least. At that point, the Chinese holiday was already over, and then I asked him if he can get in touch with his supplier once more, and he said, yes. But that he will give me an update in the next three days, I agreed. The next three days there was no response from Mr. Segun. I reached out once again, and he said he is yet to get a response. As a result, I asked him I would need a refund. He said ok, and then I asked when I should expect the payment. He said, I should wait, once he gets the money that he will pay me. I said, ok.

I waited for about two weeks, and at this time, it is already more than a month since I sent him the payment, and then I asked him once more. He said he had got the refund from his supplier that I should wait for the alert that he had sent in the money to my account with Bureau De Change there in Dubai. I said, ok. Meanwhile, I asked if I could get the evidence of payment and he responded with a rude text, that I should wait and that I should stop texting him that he meant it. I didn't reply. After about three days, I asked further and he said there was a network issue that I should let him know when I get the payment.

After about another three days, I decided to escalate things with him. I asked him for evidence of payment or that I was ready to get closure on the matter, as it was really getting on my nerves. Due to this incident, I had not sold anything for about one month, and calculating the loss, including my capital, began to drive me crazy. At this point, he started replying with foul language and told me I could go to EFCC if I wanted, that he will send the money when he is ready.

After trying so hard to get him to pay me, I decided to tag him as a scammer. Because I have evidence, after investigating him, I now have evidence that his website viscenshop.com was being used to scam people all over the world. He has taken the website down, but his page on Trustpilot where he bought fake reviews is still there, you could take a look. You will see some honest reviews and those ones all warned against the website.

This guy is a Nigerian and I can tell you that he is a certified scammer. I will post his bank and phone number details below.

AINA SEGUN VICTOR
BANK NAME: GTBank Plc
ACCOUNT NUMBER: 0139230720

PHONE NUMBER: +971507606039

Kindly beware of this eCommerce scammer.

My name is Faith Nte.

wow! why can't Nigerians be honest for crying out loud? Is it in our DNA ni, abi how? Someone would see a legit business where he can make good money over time, but prefer to scam people with it, which kind life now? Chai! Have you reported to the police?

[quote author=CheedyJ post=100249581][/quote]

ok...maybe i over did it with the 'zero risk' statement, since that seems to be the problem. It's low risk. Are y 'all happy now? jeez!
And i'm not out here begging for anybody's breadcrumbs, i'm good. i saw an interesting post, asking advice from the public, and i felt i might have a solution. If y' all don't like my solution, offer your own!
Y'all left the question on ground, and be focusing on someone's reply!
Suggest your own.. but of course, you guys don't have any good ideas, do you?
small people attack people, big people discuss ideas. I just brought an idea. You don't like it, bring yours.

babyfaceafrica:
All business have risks like he said, stop sugar-coating business

oh well, i say what i know, and leave the rest to individual opinions.. There are two kinds of people in the world,
Those that talk to appear wise, and those that ask questions to become wiser..
We ask questions, to know what we do not know.. it's not possible? it's sugar coating? So be it to you, stay with your opinion.
One day you MAY pay money to learn what you would have learnt for free if you would have asked questions...but..
I no fit dey argue...i'm done here.. do have a blessed day...

oh ok... now i see why you called me Mr Man in the first place... You are not very bright, are you? And i mean no disrespect it's just..
You could have asked for more explanation.. i would have been glad to expand on the business.
point 1 - 3 is quite disappointing, i expected better...
point 4-6 are wild assumptions, unverified suppositions..
point 7 is shocking! stolen in transit? an international shipment? Even mini importation 'smallies' know better
point 8... first, the smiley didn't help. Obviously, this all a big joke to you, you just out here catching cruise and crashing threads, make e just be say we argue about something.. but ok.. remember Op said it's an investment. The person already has a job, so do i. so a so-called delay, won't hurt. patience in investments is key. Then, ever heard of DHL? Express Shipping? Of course not..
point 9.. large supply in which market? where do you know that i sell my merchandise? In onitsha? or Alaba? or Ikeja? i sell on a platform of over 9million people, both Nigerians and non-Nigerians. I sold 10 phones in three days, and i can prove it. The market is there. Always will be?
Are we done?

lageko:

Interested

ok...whatsapp me o81 3894 4282... let's begin

uthlaw:
I have interest!

whatsapp me o81 3894 4282... let's begin

SavageResponse:


hen you people want to deceive someone into investing with you you start lying that the business has zero risk.

Mr man there is no business that has zero risk!

If you reply me I will mention at least 5 risks that your business proposal is exposed to

Pls go ahead and numerate...i'm listening...i don't mind criticism.. i'm listening...
Even though the Mr Man was unnecessary, seeing how I'm not your houseboy.. politeness is not difficult

You ended the post by doing the very same thing you are complaining about!
Nigeria is a comedy station..blah blah blah..when God wants to laugh...
God's P.A......
There is no perfect system.on the earth! We black people, we complain too much!
We see the ill in everything!
With all the good works and connections being made on NL, you decided to see this.
Facebook if full of scammers, why aren't you lamenting?
IG is a hub for soft porn, why aren't you talking?
Some of your views are reasonable, but the overall pessimistic idealism is way off!

Launch your own platform if you are that dissatisfied! Maybe, complain LAND?

Go on LinkedIn if you aren't already on the platform. Also reg. With indeed .com. They have a ton of remote jobs for frontend developers, part time jobs, etc. Just use the filter. That's tre better way to go

Abascoh:
I remember this guy scoring a penalty for Nigeria in the final match of Nigeria/Ghana 2000 against Cameroon. Very heartbreaking match. I was still a kid then and I burst into tears when I saw Kanu and oliseh crying like babies, I cried until my father had enough of it and flogged me to bed that night.

Or just quote me and we'll continue the conversation

Hi... I have the perfect business model for your friend! I'm currently in search of a partner to kickstart this project! Like, I'm already into it, but I want to expand it!
It's an iphone importation business. I know a place where I can buy my iphones, 7, 7 plus, I phone 8, and above for very cheap, import them over a ten day period, and sell them here for a good margin!
I can't give all the details out here, but check my NL profile, I've been on NL for a long time, I'm legit. If you can, watsapp me on o. 8. O. 3. 8.9.4.4. 2. 8. 2.
It's a zero risk business! And every thing is totally verifiable!

It's called marketing! They marketed the idea. It's like the bet 9ja boom that year.
You hear this person won, that person won! But nobody tells you how many times they lost..and how many times they'll lose after that!
The problem is.. people who make cash in a legit way, don't flaunt it! They don't loud it!
I think they need to. Let people see say legit work still dey pay!
Anyways, if you wanna learn blogging, affiliate marketing, cpa marketing even drop shipping, if you are serious o!!
Quote me. I'll teach you for free!! Yes free! If you are serious and follow Instructions.
I mean, I never get yahoo money from blogging..but it's doing me well, I can't even lie.

slachtoffers:
Which youths? The ones that are only interested in:

1. Joining cult and running around with their gang members killing each other. Days ago we saw the interview of a 27 yo that killed and beheaded a rival gang member.

2. Spending their time online looking for whom to scan and will do all sort of unspeakable evil like eating human feces, human ritual so as to be able to steal some else sweat.

Nigerian youths are pathetic and it is the same youths that will spend their days online defending the corrupt acts of old politicians.

It is the same youths that rig them into power and provide them with the man power they need to intimidate opposition and perpetuate themselves in power.

Like I said there is no hope for the Nigerian youths.

i beg to differ. I grew up in the ghetto. Now, i work amongst the elite. i have seen the good and the bad. Nigerian youths are not that bad! every country have their good and bad. Nigerian youths, the majority of them, are just misinformed, impoverished and educated with the wrong curriculum. Teach them effective money making skills! Empower them! Put knowledge in their hands! And see the transformation that ensues!
Funny enough, people who condemn so much have never lifted a finger, done anything to change the status quo! Just condemn!
If anyone wants to learn to make money online... I'll teach you free of charge! come! Let's change this country with empowerment! Lets not wait for any government! After they leave their children will take their place!
Na too much poverty they make people dey mental!!!

extol1:

can I join your class? the man above is saying trash that many youth are joining cult in order to kill each other. in as much as I hate it, how has the society help the youth. when you go to look for job, they will ask where is the letter from government official.
please how can teach me blogging, I am seriously interested

I'm engaged today, but soon as i find time, i will reach out to you. i will teach you blogging, help you set up a very profitable blog, teach you affiliate marketing, how to earn from it, how to integrate search engine and social media marketing with your blog to achieve mind blowing results... You just hang in there...

i like that phrase 'the youth need to empower themselves!' It summarizes the remedy to the afore listed ill. Learn. Practice. Grow.
These old people won't give you a chance! No youth, especially if your Father is not 'Somebody' stands a chance in this cabinet the incoming cabinet, except you so better yourself...if you know a skill pls, teach others. Lets get better together. Me, i am teaching young people to make money blogging. And i am teaching for free!

well said.... and accurate. Thank you for this.
