In a time when the need of money is inevitable, I searched on Play store to find loan app and came across Sokoloan Scam App.
I was offered a loan of N5000 for 10days, with interest of N2000 making N7000 just for 10days. Since I had the intention to even pay off on or before the due date but things changed and loan became due days after with several threatening calls from one Agbero of a staff. He told me if I didn't pay up the same day, I'll regret what he's going to do afterwards.

Lo and behold, I was 4days away from repayment, also seeking funds to pay up, same night I got a WhatsApp message from my HR stating the message he got from the so called Sokoloan guy.

GOOD DAY!
THIS IS TO INFORM THE GENERAL PUBLIC THAT
MR. AYOMIDE ************ ADEGOKE ON PHONE NUMBER 090********"
IS INDEBTED TO SOKOLOAN AND HAS NOT SHOWN ANY COMMITMENT OR INTENTION OF PAYING BACK, HE IS NOT TO BE TRUSTED WITH ANY FORM OF TRANSACTION BECAUSE HE IS NOT TRUST WORTHY
THANKS.

My HR sent me 4k to assist paying up cos our company is owing 2months staff salary. I made the 4k payment to Sokoloan account to balance 3,414. 2days after the payment, my future employer sent the same message to me on Whatsapp again with the same content.
As I have already resigned from my present job to start with this coy, I was told I can't work with them anymore due to the message she received cos she doesn't know how to take such risk.

Sir/Ma, please I don't know what to do, I'm not even thinking about how to pay the loan right now, what's going through my mind is how to handle my future employer so that I won't become a depressed jobless guy.

Op are you telling me there is no one you could call that could have given you 5k,it's 5k we talking about.
What is the essence of having so many friends and contacts if you can't call on them in time of need? What's the essence of family if they can't come through in time of need?
I am an introvert. I don't keep friends,males or females,and I don't collect people's contact anyhow. Because when I do something,I go all in. I love completely,so I avoid having many people as friends so that I will have less people to come through for. I will rather have few close friends I can stand up for when the time arises than having lots of useless friends that add no value to me.

pendragon35:
Thanks brethren.

I have deactivated my Facebook and Twitter accounts.

These rumor peddlers can't come to kill me with rumors. I'm the emotional type, I panic a lot about sickness because of my immune.

And once I'm depressed I can't go focus again.

My biggest fear is our parents in the village...

May God save us from the virus we never knew the origin.

Summary: May we all practice the stipulated preventive health measures.

Bro deactivating your social media accounts is too extreme now,you should have just stay away from them for some time. What you said about them spreading fake news and causing panic is true though, imagine that guy that posted the news that Nigeria has almost 500 cases.
About those in the village,don't worry they are far safer. How many ebola/ Lassa fever cases were detected in interior villages in Nigeria?

popweezy:
catarrh and cough is what I hate most. It makes me get tired of life

Catarrh is worst. Few years ago I had catarrh,it got worse when I was about to sleep,my both nostrils were blocked,I mean no tiny air could pass in or out,I was breathing through my mouth. I was afraid of sleeping because I thought if I sleep and close mouth,I might die.
I laid on my bed pitying myself. Next thing I know I woke up from sleep,it was morning already,the catarrh was gone I was like WTF

Go and sit down somewhere,we are talking of lives,you are advertising your stupid phone,which might be stolen sef . If I report you they will ban your moniker but what will I gain. Pls limit your hustle to threads that are related not where lives are on the line.

DMerciful:
See how an invisible virus shutdown the world!

It's really amazing and perplexing, sometimes it's like the end of days movies I have watched in the past are replaying their selves again.
Countries and educational systems shut down,it's like I'm dreaming. Trump the most powerful man in the world is rendered helpless by Corona.
Right now I don't know if I'm afraid or anxious or something,I just don't know.

Zico5:
No one believes in Nigeria courts again, so it means nothing to common man. They are only there to fulfil executive wishes. Everywhere on lockdown, let's see how we will cope as citizens. May God have mercy on us.

Nobody believes in Nigerian courts again? Because the person you voted for lost? How old are you?
I am sure you would be in school by now doing class work if not for the schools shut down. Senseless kid.

24krests:
Meanwhile in a school in Ibadan

Why on earth do people treat private school teachers like animals?

Sorry what is the roster for or how does it portray the school treating teachers as animal. I just want a little bit enlightenment because I couldn't see the correlation between the two.

peacettw:
The virus stays suspended in the air for 8 hours. It only makes sense that we all wear face masks to avoid being infected.

Liar,where did you get this information from. I won't be surprised if all you know about covid is from nairaland. People like you should be quarantined for life,your falsehood is worse than Corona.

Assurance1000:
Just lost my job in a transport company. Pay was little (30k) but it kept me busy. Any recommendations will be appreciated. I reside in Benin. I have a Master's in Microbiology. Though
I feel bad right now but am positive about the future. Your kind words would go a long way to help me right now. Thanks.

If you had used the money you spent on getting masters to get a car for Uber or start some business,you would be employing others now. Those of you who are undergraduates reading this,if your parents her not rich,I mean they can't confidently guarantee you a job after master's degree. Tell them not to worry about msc for now,tell them you will into it later. Rather collect the money and start something or else you will regret.
@Op,all the years you have worked,have you recouped the Money you spent on masters yet?
Think

Good news. Covid has 2% mortality rate. Meaning only 2 will likely die out of every 100 infected.

How minor is minor Police will start releasing arm robbers and criminals who can bribe their way through, calling it minor. Is it not NPF again

Rubbish,
Humans were humans from start,they never evolved from anything. Everything were created and wonderfully made by God,I know I am.
Much respect to all the medical practitioners all around the world who couldn't be with their families because they had to endanger their own lives to save Corona virus victims. Salute

Na who dey help

Please don't know if this is the right place for this and pardon my use of English.
I subscribed for Gotv from my account on Tuesday (17/032/20) , I waited till Friday 20th nothing was coming up. I checked from the app on my phone and I find out the money wasn't credited, so I called the customer care number the lady told me they received the money later i find out the money has been credited to my account. But yet to display anything.
Story cut short, I have called and spoke with their Attendance over 7times bw Friday/Saturday. Keep getting same and, we have sent for request for a reset, put it on number 5 it will display in a jiffy,yet nothing is coming up.
Now @gotv Nigeria is not picking up my calls. Most annoying is that this calls are paid for as their line is not toll free.
Please am I scammed
Mod please help me as I need it now so I can be informed about happenings esp at this world health crisis.
Thanks

Stop calling,go to the nearest DStv Gotv center,they will correct it immediately on the computer. Those you are calling are just call center agents who lodge your complains to DSTV GOTV.
The last time I was at Ikeja Shopping Mall center to subscribe,a man to lodge a complain that he subscribed but his DStv isn't working. The lady solved it for him within few minutes

Even Trump is depressed. Watching helplessly as Corona death soar on US with all his medical innovation and resources. Guy better encourage yourself, nobody can love you more than you love yourself.

Guy forget, Nigerian, especially the youths are scammers now. Maybe it's unemployment or the fault of our leaders,I don't know. But I know most Nigerians will cheat you and worst scam you at any given opportunity.
Just today,a guy was scammed on jiji,it's a daily occurrence. They full telegram groups, selling what not,I used to curse them before blocking them
I hate scammers with every pint of blood in me.

Good, bless you Ali baba
Here in Africa especially Nigeria,we are cursed with billionaires who probably made 70% of their money from corruption but find it hard to give unless they are certain it will help them to gain more popularity or political advantage.

odave:
Why didn't she attempt killing the person that wronged her? Why the innocent baby?

The baby has nothing to do with their squabble, she should have vent her anger on her lover.

The heart of man is so dark and evil



Btw, where ? I suspect his contract has ended. There are people you don't argue with on NL, most of them are moles, paid agents and hired secret agents. That's why you will see them 247 on NL arguing, fighting and insulting whoever does not support their cause. Believe me, Most of them do it against their wish but because of what they will eat. They are hired for divide and rule, confusion, tribal sentiments and so on. I pray another civil war won't start from NL.

You are a liar,I have seen people call out that moniker a lot,so one day I opened his threads and post and went through it. He supports Buhari,the same way you and 99% of all Igbos support PDP,but he never ever promote tribalism or disrespect other people's religion, or promote division. I understand if you hate him the way you hate Buhari,it's your life. But don't come and start talking trash here.
Everybody knows the people who are hateful and entitled.They curse people,and think all other geo political zone is their enemy because of what happened 100 years ago.

abbaapple:




First in History the world is scam like this!!! Spits

This is a big lie. 8 thousands children die of hunger everyday? Stop believing everything the white man tells you. So yesterday,8 children died of hunger,today another 8 thousands will still die? Does that make sense to you,how many children are born in a day and how many children are in the world?
How many times have you read online or in your neighborhood,that someone died of hunger?
Your brain was given to you by God so that you can think,don't be a western world zombie

Shibaraba:

Timaya kuku sing am

We don't understand what you wrote,if you can't type in English, Nigeria's official language,shut up or go to nearest garage and meet your fellows there.

Anneka101:
This is a good move from CAN and I pray the almighty God put an end to this soon.

Amen.

Perfecttouchade:
Congratulation buhari, hope we can hold u responsible for allowing this shit into the country..lots of people are falling sick

Hold him responsible how? All our international Airports were closed apart from Lagos and Abuja. Testing kits have been a available so far. Those who came from overseas with it were detected and quarantined,what do you want him to do again you hateful lots
We know that some people have been disappointed and sad for some time because covid 19 is not killing Nigerians as they expected. They wanted it to spread and cause havoc so that they can blame Buhari. Even if it kills their mothers,as long as they get to blame Buhari,they are ok. What sort of human beings are these,just because of loosing election.

osamz007:
House, I just lost some of my important pictures any way to get them back? I mistakenly deleted the folder.

I am really surprised how this is possible in this age and at this time. With an Android phone, Google account and internet any picture you take or saved from the internet is saved automatically on Google photos. You can go to settings to add videos if you like,but it you know videos are larger files which means you might exhaust your data.
To avoid you loosing your pictures next time.
All you need is Google account, Google photos and internet connection.
On your Android phone open Google photos.
Go to settings> back up and Sync>mobile data back up> select photos (to automatically back up your photos).
You can select videos if you want to.

"I think it's high time women told us..." Op take note.

SultanOfAbia:
Corona is one of the best thing to ever happen to humans as a collective.

Now all countries will collaborate without sentiment and politics.
It's has increased world wide unity..
This virus has made every nation on Earth have one thing in common.
Now it's no longer, one side of the world will be suffering while another side of the world is unaffected.
Everyone is affected, which brings a sense of every nation joining hands to fight one common enemy.
When Ebola happened it was not that serious to the world because one side was just affected which is Africa..
Every country is now involved which means everyone will feel compassion for what each other have faced, the people they have lost to this virus.
Everyone on Earth for the first time will see compassion for one another because it's affecting everybody.

Now every country is involved and this will make governments to sit up and act serious or they and all their citizens will be perished.
Countries will learn how to depend on themselves and stop imoporting from China and co..

For the first time in human history, this virus has shattered the idea that one country is better than the other.
Now every country is overlooking their problems and wars because coronavirus has made them realise that it's far greater threat to them than wars..

This drastic change of lifestyle caused by this virus will further innovate more technology as robots will soon start doing all these buman jobs like delivery, shopping.
As for transportation we might be entering a new phase of innovations that will change airplane bus,train,metro transportation.

Universities around the world will be forced to switch over to Online School Teaching.
Brace Yourselves..

There's no blessing in covid 19. You might as well say that for ebola or SARS or HIV.
Thousands of people have died within few weeks, someone's children, parents, brothers and sisters.
If you lost your children to this virus you wont be here typing trash.

Ehiagwina001:
I gave you address to come . You never said anything again . And you came here to type nonsence.. why are people like this

If you are not a scammer, then I wish you well in your business. If you are a scammer,You will not end well if you are here to scam people of their hard earned money,you will loose everything that means something to you and die a miserable death.
Now say amen to this prayer to prove you are innocent.

Guys please Corona virus is not a child's play,take absolute precautions and teach your kids how to also.
Myths about Covid 19
It doesn't affect black people
It cannot strive in hot weather
It doesn't kill young people
Eating Onions and Ginger cures it
All these are false. God help us
