Use Fade Out or Bio Oil. Takes time, but works.

It is barbaric, it is the worst form of touture you can put a human being through. The parents that have this done to their children need to be hung, drawn and quartered.

Unncessary violence.
The actor dials a number and starts speaking striaght away, without even waiting for the other phone to ring? (poor acting)
People running around with guns trying to be James Bond, which they obviously aint.
Fake accents.
Singing, when they can't even sing for their dinner

There are certain items that attract scammers on ebay. Items like mobile phones, ipods and the like. There is nothing you can do to stop them as they have accomplices over the world. Even if you restrict the countries you can ship to, block those without paypal etc etc. They can always get around it. The only thing you can do is to stop selling items that attract them or you will keep losing money by way of listing and FVFees.

Do not send to Nigeria because there is no genuine Nigerian buyer on Ebay. They are all scammers. Just read the community boards and you will see the extent of the fraud carried out by Nigerians on ebay/paypal. Don't hink you will get any help from Ebay or Paypal, as long as they get their money they couldn't give a hoot about you. If you do contact them all they send back is generic, automated nonsense that does not offer any help.

Paypal payments, even from verified and confirmed addresses is not safe despite what people think. I once sold items totaling about 350 pounds to a buyer with a confirmed and verified paypal account and they paid instantly. I always transfer payments immediately to my bank account. Which I did on this ocassion. The next day I sent the buyer an email confirming that I had posted items by special delivery including the postal reference. 2 hours later, I got an email from paypal stating that they are holding the payment pending inquiries. The buyer had filed a chargeback!!.  As I had transfered the money my paypal account was in negative. As expected paypal found for the buyer and demanded I restore my account to credit. This was despite the fact that I had forwarded all the emails I exchanged with this buyer and also posted by online trackable means.

I told Paypal to get lost and that I will never restore my account. I told them that I will not be needing an account anymore. I was a very sucessfull powerseller with over 9000 positive feedbacks and a 99.8% rataing. I closed my shop and stopped selling. They bombarded me with phone calls and emails threatening to transfer the debt to collectors. I said, 'be my guest'. I dared them to take me to court and that I will be able to expose their complicity with scammers and get compensation for their harrassment.

The long and short of it is that ebay/paypal do not care about sellers, once a buys complains you see them jumping over hoops to listen. The level of scams going on in these 2 places is astronomical. It is a good place to make money as you are selling to the whole world and you can make extremely good money but in the end I counld not deal with the hassle anymore.

hahaha

He's just havin' a laugh!!!

Matching shoe and bag? That's so 3 seasons ago!

Wow!! Good luck to him, he really earned it.

Fraud, drugs etc spring to most of these immigration officers mind when they see a green passport. Who will blame them? It is a few rotten apples that made it so.

Some people might have sailed through but the fact remains that a Nigeran passport raises a big RED flag when it is presented be it while travelling or as a means of identifiction. You have to prove you are kosher.  They ask all sorts of questions and require everything short of a DNA test.

huh

Don't you think you deserve that treatment? A relationship without trust is a hopeless one. Just cut your losses and move on. Perhaps you have learnt a bitter lesson,  incase of next time.

What has age got to do with anything? In my own opinion 3 years is nothing

Seun:
In a school, there may be 30 children to one class teacher. How do you expect that teacher to do better than you?

Same ratio or more in UK state schools.

Some of the documents Alalade allegedly forged to facilitate the fraud included ”a document titled Purchase Offer dated November 1, 2007, purported to have been issued by Chamby Corporation Ltd. Of 50 Lapwing Tower, Abinger Grove, Deptford London.”

The above address looks like a council tower block. That must be the residence of his accomplice as no reputble company will have an office in a council flat.

, there, there, children. You are making Mama cry with all this squabling,

RMD, I just love him!

Corrupt and Dubious!! I agree those and more are the words I would associate with majority of Nigerians, it is so endemic that I believe that it will take hundreds of years to purge it from the psyche of the typical Nigerian.

This has nothingto do with poverty because the wealthiest are the most corrupt.

Take Babagngida for instance, he was not satisfied with what he looted in the past and wanted to come into govt again to finish off what he started - oloshi!!

Ini is young, a natural beauty and does not try to fake an accent like a lot of other actresses. I love her gravelly voice, it makes her stand out. She can really act. I always watch any film she is on.

The only thing this this selfish man is interested in is letting his rocks off - eating his cake and having it. Don't bother telling his wife as it will get you nowhere. Just cut your loses and move on!

If you love a hustle-free life and clean environment, take the Enugu option. You have at least two establishments where you will find expats from Europe/ US: The British council has a big office in Enugu, and the Nigerian Breweries PLC (affiliated to Heineken of Holland), which has its largest brewery in the whole of Africa in Enugu. Enugu is a university town, being the town with the second highest number of higher educational institutions after Ogun State. For your info, both Aba and Enugu are safer than Lagos. And if Nigeria wants to save Lagos from the impending implosion from human population, they should begin to somehow ''force'' investors, both foreign and local, to spread to other parts of the country, especially the East (there are sea ports in Calabar, Onne and PH) and also the North. Everything Lagos, Lagos, yet it is the dirtiest and most run-down city in the world

I couldn't agree more!

wow!
