No pix? lubbish! You know how we roll here, or are you a learner?

you not serious, looking for what is bigger than you. anyway no pix for u.

come and see action, come and see shout, come and see problems.

trending hot here right now in computer village is a story of a woman who after hearing numerous stories about her husband escapades with women decides to pay him a surprise visit. unfortunately for the man, the plaza generator went off during that period and the man was seriously entwined with the galfriend when his wife busted him. oh my God, you need to see the scene.
as everywhere was dark and his office in a secluded area the man was using the opportunity to grabs all he can from his girlfriend body. his wife was fully prepared and came with a friend that was muscular in statue. they busted into the office, beat the hell out of the girlfriend, naked her, scratched all her booby and exposed her shouting "come see thief oo, husband snatcher" and people gathered there. guys, gals, they wanted to see something. well me just went there to get this story out for you. what pains me most is that the woman was the one woman made the man. opened the shop for him too.

well the man managed to push his wife and her friend outside and locked his girlfriend inside the office from peering eyes but he wasnt left out because his wife and friend gave him a hot beating.
men sha!!

"the fufu package and packagers in computer village"

Boomboost:
Where Alcatel office dey for Lagos?

ikeja, under the bridge.

Whoever read the first post, should appreciate this and if you havent read the first post, then go search for it.
you can get any info about anything in computer village all u need to do is to get in touch with the right source. even as all of them a scattered, they know each other well and they have a street king.
Had to go all the way to do this for you guys, i took my time, flex them well before one of them fit give me this info. i went to their crib(for isale* in youruba). for those who said they really need this insight, here is it.
i no fit dey here, open eye, con see una dey fall victim for this guys hand almost everyday(it happened again). all the same, KB said "person wey go fall, go still fall" (words from the street of computer village) you can comment and also feel free to criticize. for the interview purpose, i would use kamoru(real names hidden) as the guy name. enjoy, kamoru didnt know i posted about what he does in my first topic(not sure is a registered member in nairaland) and thats the advantage i have for him to disclose all he said to me'
most of the interview was said in both yoruba, english and pidgin but i will make it understandable and clear to all by using english and pidgin.

ME: guy ow far?
KAMORU: wetin dey happen? (answered with a question)
ME: cool, anyshow concerning what i asked you(in yoruba)?
KAMORU: you this guy sef, your wahala too much, what do you want to know?(in yoruba)
ME: how you it. how you change a phone to fufu* shey na jazz you dey use? (yoruba)
KAMORU: jazz ke, omo na natural oo, na baba God.(yoruba)
frankly i didnt understand those words so i asked him.
ME: so God dey involved too(yoruba)
KAMORU: yeso, baba God ni, na him dey bring greedy mugu(with s) come meet us
ME: ow na?
KAMORU: see, this thing is so natural. it comes in 1,2,3 and when it is well planned and schemed, it will work perfectly well.
ME: so how you take dey know greedy mugu them? u dey use jazz?
KAMORU: i don tell u say no be jazz, na god. when u see a person wey get big eye con stand for your front dey say he want big phone for small money, no b greediness be that.
ME: yeah, naso,so u capitalize on their greediness and covetousness to play them right?
KAMORU: yes, but e pass that one sha. you know i told you that when you know the 1,2,3 then it becomes simple(yoruba).
ME: so whats the 1,2,3?
KAMORU: we use 2 kinds of phones to do the runs, *a popular brand(tecno infinix, itel e.t.c) or a unpopular brand. the unpopular brand gives us more money though. in most cases the unpopular brand(is very popular in other countries) but since them no know, we chop them raw. na God (yoruba).
ME: hmmm, (that was a very tangible info i got there so i drifted back to the incident i witnessed and spoke about in my first post. i wanted to know more about the max5 and how true this guy was. so plz take your time to review this phone too and see who is right or wrong)

*the max5 is actually a good phone, but the brand is very unpopular(i dont know why). i typed malata mobile on the net and got nothing important except their facebook page, twitter handle and normal peripherals but i wasn't convinced so i went to do a background check on the phone itself. the brand malata mobile is a top quality brand in china. it comes as a sole manufacturer of the number 3 best phone(meizu) in china(before lenovo, huawei,tecno and the rest). so i wonder how their shit no dey sell for naija ooo. i con see say price dey involved. okay now, lets move on. now see the malata max5 specs and pix(extracts from facebook) wey my guy wan buy for #11000..

the original price is about 40000 thousand naira online. now who is the thief, the guy with #11000naira or the packager who is out there to do business. ... this guys are very well informed and so they use that advantage(when the sense that u will ask for what your money cant originally buy, they'll play a fast one on u). they are wise and very schemed. when they "sense", i repeat the word "sense".

abeg lets get going with the interview............

ME: (he has told me the 1 and 2) which is first(one's greed) 2nd(one's ignorance) so i asked, whats the third.
he didnt want to answer that question, so i pointed to another bottle of gin i ordered for him and asked him to drink up while i took my drink too.
KAMORU: well e no hard, i just find a better case of any of the phone i am displaying in my hand and then package it with fufu. infact, there is no phone that i dont have the phone case. anytime i wan commot, i just pick one of them and pray on it to bring me good luck that day, package it with my fufu and head out to do business(yoruba).
ME: wow(see scheme, see prayer: people don suffer) i thought to myself.
do u go to church(yoruba).
KAMORU: y not na, i be comfam church goer oooo(yoruba)
ME: ha, wahala dey, so thats y u take get mind do this kind thing abi?(yoruba)
KAMORU: before nko, i no go chop(yoruba).
ME: yah, u go chop, why not (guys don dey fall in for our side dey hear our conversation and i no wan chop slap). so them dey sleep when u go change the phone?
KAMORU: NO, they act too smart(which is good) but they combine it with joy that they have concluded a deal for a new phone(and so didnt put their eyes down to oversee the end of the transaction) whereas i don dey do d magic(i wish i can say it the way the guy said it in yoruba, e sweet die).
ME: so how u dey con disappear after the transaction?
KAMORU: before we dey tell them say make them no look back because guys don ready to collect their phone or police go come arrest them(though they still do this to some people once in a while) but when we see say naija don dey adjust and become more vigilant we con dey capitalize on the fact say them go dey happy for a new phone and so we go vamooz into the nearest corner wey we don dey target since(yoruba)
ME: so you dey get corners for computer village?
KAMORU: yeso, infact i dey watch most of my victim sometimes as dem dey feel bad but i no blame them because them felt smart. igboro ni emi(yoruba.. i just had to say that one)
ME: but this thing no really make sense na, why you dey do dis stuff?(the response i got made me shut up!)
KAMORU: "can you pay me a salary of 100k every two weeks so i fit stop(yoruba)
ME: where i wan see am?(yoruba)
KAMORU: so that question, no ask me again. i no like am(yoruba).
ME: no vex oga, no vex. but what if they catch you?
KAMORU: na today, u know how many times i don beg people for floor here, u know how many station i don sleep, u know how many police i dey settle, sometimes luck no dey dey on my side so all this things dey happen steady(yoruba)
ME: so like ow much u dey see daily?
KAMORU: on a good day when market dey move9can u imagine) i dey make over 80k with settlement and everything and on a bad day, maybe 10-15k and sometimes nothing at all. so everything na luck and prayer.(yoruba)
ME: so when you wan stop?
KAMORU: i no be God, anytime he say make i stop but for now, street dey sweet(yoruba)

if you see this guy, he looks rough,not too tidy and black(than a pot), so i was forced to ask
ME: this money no too dey show for your face na, where e dey go?. then he started counting responsibilities and projects hes at hand. i was shocked. he also made me understand that its not all of them that says "u wan buy, u wan sell" that participate in this treacherous act. he made me understand that his people are a group and the people that are not on his group are the other people that actually sells real phones to customer. he also said that there is a way that most times you could get your phones back incase you have been a victim. funniest part is if your phone was stolen in lagos and you are able to come into computer village that day and the following day, you would see your phone ....

so here is it, the interview with the packager, so fresh. whats your take on it. am ready for any other questions to find out in the market.

baddest095:


op I need a good phone that is a beast in terms of games..tho I av 20k

tab or phone, plz specify

jdstunt:
I have actually been a victim of this there malicious act

There was a day I went to computer village to purchase a bold2 (with d intention to get from d Street guys cos it's cheaper) I was actually d one asking them if they had phone for sale. There was this one I saw a nice white bold2 with, then I asked him if he wanted to sale. immediately he knew I wanted to buy, he then told me dat he was coming to go bring d phone for me

I was like, wat of d one with u I want dat one, he said no he was coming back to get another one for me, so I decided to wait for him at a shop close by (not knowing he was rushing to get d fufu phone from where he stored it) when he got back he den asked me to follow him I said no let's stay here nd bargain but he refused telling me d place was not good dat they were watching us dat we should b walking on d Street and be talking dan staying at that place

So I decided to follow him cos I was curious to get a phone, after much much I gave him 7K nd he asked me to give him back d phone to remove his Sim card, b4 I knew wat was happening, he had already changed d phone with another wan packaged with fufu (I didn't even notice) den he told me to walk fast nd focus straight dat I shouldn't look backwards cos some bad guys were watching. immediately, I started walking straight nd my heart started pounding, when I got to some reasonable distance I decided to unveil my package, dat was when it dawned on me dat I had been scammed

stay tuned as i would later post about how to get your phone or money back when youve been scammed

i can assist you even if u want to get a phone from the street for cheap(not advisable though)

MEILYN:
Alaba International is even worse. I happen to grow up at Okokomaiko, which is very close to Alaba. So I hear these stories every now and then, but I have never been a victim though. Lol

the victim wont just allow me snap his picture, if not............................

69MissedCalls:
ddnt he see that he was collecting the fufu .

anyway, the one i know, the trick happens when you put the phone back in the pack. when u buy the phone, throw away the pack. play music on the phone till u reach home. make I see how e go turn fufu for my hand

it didn't turn to fufu, it was swapped with a case of the same phone(packaged with fufu) that was already inside the guy's pocket.

killercute16:
Come and continue ni

sure, what else ask and it shall be given

tobillionaire:
Once i lay my hands on d fone, i'll operate it till i get home,,, '' go charge d ba3 b4 u operate am o" na wash

but the street guy has to remove his sim card right or would u take his sim card with you too?

COMPUTERVILLA:
The issue discussed here is open to everyone opinion and suggestions. also share your experience ooo, we need to wise up

in the market, there are fufu packagers(that package the fufu to sell) and the fufu pakagees( victims that buy the fufu)

this is an insight about how not to become a victim of the fufu packagers. am taking this subject matter because it just happened to a victim. first of all you must know that this whole scenario is always a case of dupe(to deceive someone, usually by making that person do something that they did not intend). in a real case scenario it is when you actually come into the market to purchase a phone or device and after testing the phone all well and working perfect you pay and later find out that what you paid for wasn't what was given to you. you paid for a phone but eventually got a fufu packaged into a phone.

here is a scenario that happened today, the guy in question walked into the market hoping to get a phone(no phone brand in particular) just as he was walking by in the street of Otigba in computer village he was drawn by what some street guys(u wan buy u wan sell) were offering him. this guy in particular is a sharp and smart guy(at least that what he thought) but never knew that this street guys were schemed and well-planned set of dupers. he was drawn to what they were saying but didn't get close to them because he had heard alot about this street "ayage" but unfortunately for him, one of them approached him saying their popular slogan "u wan buy? u wan sell?" and showed him so many display of phones that he held in his hands. this guy in particular was immediately attracted to a particular phone that i have never heard of until now. when he showed interest on this phone, the street guy took him to another location for proper viewing (that's what he was told) so they were there and bargained price. now here is where the stunt took place ; the phone was a malata max5, the price bargained was #11000 naira opposed to the original price in town because it was a new brand. the phone was with the guy but after he had paid the street guy, he remembered that his sim card was in the phone and when he said he wanted to remove his simcard, the guy gave him the phone back without knowing he had interior motive. when the street guy collected the phone and was attempting to remove his supposed sim card, the magic took place and he ended up collecting a Fufu packaged in a phone case as a "wonderful" phone.
till this moment of writhing this scenario if this guy is being asked what happened he'll reply "i don't know". as at now he has lost #11000 thousand naira and still hasn't got a phone.
~I'll give you insight as to How they do it
~When they do it
~why they do it
~How to patronize this street guys because they also have good phones at times(not encouragable though)

but first i have a personal view that the guy is to blame but why did i say so because this street guys just dont do it to anybody anyhow. so why did is say so?

HAVE YOU HAD ANY EXPERIENCE, SHARE IT
