toluene12: keep deceiving urself and continue living in delusion or self denial. The truth is out there; ibori is a case study.

arbitrage: Jacoplain and Rossike: Do you know those emails you said are emanating from the UK and USA are from your your friends and brothers over there and those in Nigeria hiding IP or using VPN? I just hope you are not writing as a Nigerian living there under fraudulent papers, who always feel threatened and marginalized by the UK and USA citizens. Such don't always see anything good in the whites' policies. Come home and repair your country so that your image can be improved everywhere.

lestat: Shut up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
how did you check? they are sent by Nigerians there in Edo state and Lagos Using Foreign IPS so the prospective victims will also trust them thinking they are not from Nigeria foool

aribisala0: Many British men travel to Africa Thailand etc to have s ex with young boys/girls do we label the whole nation as paedophiles

Anvaller: Well, it is painful tho but I can't be part of such complaint. We have to vent our anger on ourselves, it will be more useful to lodge such complaint to our government and pressure them to be responsible and help our country's image than to tell BBC not to joke about our globally known trend of fraud. If our government can't help our image, so why should the BBC care? Let's just forget it, Naija no get levels at all. If u are meeting any foreigner and u introduced urself as a Nigerian, they start looking over their shoulders immediately. People in Nigeria would not actually understand how bad it is until they transact and interact outside Nigeria on different levels. It is very very bad.
Bross I dey represent anywhere I dey, I no send ohh wether Uk,yankee or singapore, nothing do me,doing Biz with Nigerians has it gains and loss, whatside you find urself is up to U n U r on ur own

You're making a mistake. And before you fall for those whiteman scams get some education about internet scam.
I keep seeing this banner ad saying ''Google pay me N1,441,548 per day''. And when I traveled to Ghana it reads ''Google pay me 1,645,654 Cedis per day'' and in Benin republic it reads ''Google pay me 9,654,266 CFA per day''. This scam are being ran by by Americans or Brits themselves. I've checked it and I know they're not Nigerians.
Also note that Nigerian guys are very dynamic and don't send emails anymore!. Emails was a long time ago. Guys have gone more sophisticated, they don't need to send you an email anymore.

ROSSIKE: Do you have a BRAIN IN YOUR HEAD?

TELL ME SOMETHING. IN YOUR EMAIL BOX, WHERE DO THE MAJORITY OF SCAM EMAILS EMANATE FROM?

Is it not the UK and USA?

''You won the lottery! Send a txt to xyz to claim!''

''You've been selected to win a prize! Click here to claim!''

''We have a plan that can make you rich in one week! Click here!''

DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY MILLIONS OF PEOPLE FALL FOR THOSE SCAMS EVERY SINGLE DAY?

ARE THEY COMING FROM NIGERIA?

RUBBISH.

jacoplain: In 2005, I was the only candidate invited for a second interview for the post of an Accountant with a Finance Brokerage in London and the Lady asked me why my "compatriots" were fond of fraud and 419. I told her that it was not all of us but the lazy ones but she obviously wasn't convinced and her fear got the better of her 'cos I didn't get the job.

Fast forward to Feb 2012 and I lost another Temporary Accounting Post because I protested at my line managers insinuation that a Nigerian Accountant may not be safe for their cheque book. My protest forced the HR Director to get her to apologise to me but he still gave her the leeway to either allow my contract to run on or terminate it and she chose to terminate it. Not that I minded the termination as there was no way I was going to feel happy working there after her subtle prejudice.

Employers don't get it when you feel aggrieved if they insinuate that Nigerians are fraudulent but if I am not a fraudster, why should I be a partaker of other peoples sins just because we bear the same moniker as Nigerians ?

Having said that, all those years studying to be an Accountant in London may be a waste afterall as with the antics of some of my Fraudulent country men being exposed in England by the day, then which employer is going to trust a Nigerian Accountant to look after their cheque books ??

What a sorry state the name Nigeria is in.

Ile latin kesho rode. Charity begins at home but there are a hardcore of our boys in the West who are intent on poisoning the name Nigeria for the rest of us. And the sad thing is that Nemesis is not catching up with them fast enough.

The name Nigeria has now become a laughing stock in the UK thanks to these thieves.

In fact I asked an IT Director of a Multinational where I was contracting a few months ago if she was Nigerian (not knowing she was Siera Leonian) and she retorted back "Don't Smear Me" in front of colleagues both White and African. I then ask her if there was anything wrong with being a Nigerian to which she had no answer. We were to work on the same project but her initial prejudice and her aggression meant we were never going to get along well.

When other Africans in the UK are now distancing themselves from Nigerians and also outwardly showing us prejudice because of the antics of the greedy fraudsters amongst us then it is a sorry state indeed.

But I still remain a Nigerian for life despite the fact that the name Nigeria is evolving into a corrupted brand on a daily basis.

Nigerians were once noted mainly for our Academioc achievements but at this moment in time our bad name acquired because of the 419'ers amongst us now means that some unscrupulous employers in the West are now beginning to cast aspersions onto the honesty with which we acquired those qualifications in the first place.

An example was in 2006 when I was an Accountant at a Hospital in London and the National Health Service sponsored and encouraged employees to sit a certain computer exam where you had to sit the practice test anywhere you wanted and on passing that, you could then proceed to the main centre to sit the real exam. In the practice tests, I scored 90% in the first paper and 92% in the second one. At the main centre, the first invigilator a white lady duly recorded my marks in the log book and allowed me to sit the real exam but the invigilator for the second paper (a black lady - Afro Carribean) took one look at my practice exam scores and said I had to retake the exam and I asked her why ? She answered back "How am I sure you did not cheat to pass". I had to then lecture her on how a lot of Nigerians were highly educated before we left the shores of Nigeria and that not all Nigerians are exam cheats. Obviously, I lost my cool and gave her a piece of my mind and refused to retake the mickey mouse exam and told her I was going to report her to her boss and she promptly supplied me with her bosses contact details.

Suffice it to say that in classic NHS political style, the whole saga was turned around with the victim now becoming the villain and I was duly summoned to a kangaroo disciplinary hearing where after 3 hours I was found guilty of "losing my temper" when she insinuated that I might be an exam cheat. Their "sentence" was that that finding was to be placed in my HR files and I would be observed for the next 1 year to see if I lost my cool again.

Not to disappoint myself or depart from who I really was, I went back to my desk and wrote my resignation letter on the spot and relocated back to Nigeria 3 days later to open a restaurant - a "castle in the sky" adventure that lasted 2 years before I threw in the towel and reluctantly came back to London in 2008.

My point is that it may soon get to a stage where more and more Nigerian professionals in the West are having their qualifications scrutinised because they happen to come from the same country as these lazy thieving 419'ers mentioned in the original post.

A bad Brand named Nigeria is not good for all of us, there are not enough voices of dissent condemning those amongst us who are daily tarnishing our already battered name abroad. Instead you are seen as out of touch and not smart if you don't hail or partake in the "evil prowess" of these fraudsters. We tend to forget that Evil flourishes when good people keep quiet. Eje ka panupo ba ole wi. Lets all with one voice condemn the thieves amongst us instead of hailing them as smart.

Rant over.

Thank God for you. I have lived with my husband for over 3 years before we got married and applied for visa in June. But I haven't got a baby for him. Oh erico I pray it does not exceed 3 month. Does the 3 month include winning the appeal and issuing Visa or just winning the appeal excluding the issue of visa? Happy new month and complement of the season. Do have a good day. Cheers.

lastpage: You are truly a dolt!

I am a "man", if you are smart enough, you would have deduced that from my post.

Again, the "give birth" story was true and it was for "someone" whose identity my wife wanted to keep private.

Having said that, you're still a "small boy" forming beyond your level.

Its obvious you are not educated (or at best, poorly educated), all your post ooze that 'dangerous mentality' of ill-educated folks.

My grouse with your type is that being "under-achievers", you try to depress others to come down to your level.
A Graduate in a Bank earns far above #70K monthly. That is a FACT.

if you think you're not worth more than that, then continue to squat on "Social Welfare" in your dinghy one room.
Otherwise, relocate and come and come and drive the BMW TRUCK
Its better than being a liability to the British Government ...and that woman you "arrangee" to marry.

Nothing do you, Nna.

As per evidence of contact you can write a letter covering that explaing means of contact and the reason you could not provide physical evidence.

Just to let you know that I've printed emails month by month from January to October the emails are bulky and all the money transfer documents though my husband put the money in my mums name to collect it and give to me. I made a copy of my mums passport and visa page and sent along with my appeal. Its the time I'm worried about. How long did it take you to win your appeal before they issue you visa? According to what you said in your mail in the first thread if I'm not miss quoting you "you said you've been refused thrice and appeal thrice" I'm I correct? If yes, how long did the first appeal took before the refused you? Do you think all the documents enclosed with the appeal is enough to overtone their decision? Say hello to your wife and baby. Cheers

Muheehehe , this one want to kill me with "grammar"!

I took your "advice" and checked your profile -- it says (and it shows in the picture) that you live in "one dinghy room" in U.K! I can even see where you hung your clothes on the wall of your dingy room!
So you want to "form" for me that you live in the U.K?
Or have you forgotten l was one of those who offered you "advice" when you wanted to do your "marry-Oyinbo woman" to get U.K stay?
You cant even write or spell correctly
Would you by any chance be a "bricklayer" by profession?

But that is by the way and not my problem.
Next time, dont refer people to your "profile", its ain't worth it.

I never said or implied that "you" drive a truck (maybe you have comprehension problems); just read my post again, to be sure.
I dont know which "orientation or imagination" you are talking about but l resigned from working in a bank (at senior level then) close to fifteen years ago and l know that "qualified bankers" earn a lot more than 70K,/month even back then!. Even "allowances" exceed that, back then, not to mention now that inflation has "watered down" the income!.
(At times, just PDP (Productivity Driven Pay a.k.a "Profit Sharing" at Graduate level/Snr. Sup./ABO is around 400K when business blossoms. Any one who had worked in that Industry for some time can confirm this)

I also saw your picture and from the look of things, you're still a "small boy" thus, l will pardon your "diarrhea of the mouth".

I was refused on the ground of evidence of contact. My lawyer is Nigeria. It was stated in my Right of appeal that my case can be treated with all the relevant documents and may not go for appeal hearing. I don't know why they made this statement. Does that mean they can review the case without the case going for appeal hearing. I'm restless erico

Sharrap, which "Banker" earns #70K?
Or are you referring to the "Security Man" at the Door of a Bank?
Stop consoling yourself in this sort of manner.
Just drive your Truck and be happy with whatever job you do.

You're right, I believe the Embassy handle Administrative review, but the lawyer said he sent the appeal to the Tribunal that the Tribunal will send the paperwork to the Embassy for review, after reading a lot from this thread I disagree with him mail to me because I learnt the Tribunal will send the appellant acknowledgement letter, secondly they will send another letter regarding the hearing date, if I win the case then the Tribunal will contact UKBA, if the UKBA didn't challenge it then the Embassy will be contacted regarding the issue of my Visa. I've not received any letter yet, my husband signed the appeal form before the lawyer sent it off. I don't know if it is oral or paper hearing. What do I do now? Because the lawyer said there's no chasing up. Please help, will the Tribunal send me my own acknowledgement letter or to my husbands address in UK? Because I'm in Nigeria O.
