Scam today 10/08/2021!

Osita Akhigbe has just succeeded in scamming me of 8k in a bid to offer my freelance account review. I sent him the agreed money and he blocked me. His phone number is 07061444857

See his account details:

Wema Bank
Osita Akhigbe
0249404290
7817009896

Wema Bank please take note of this account number & name above. He is a pure scammer. Damaging your bank name with lies. Investigate him.

I doubt if that identity is real. Osita (Ibo) while Akhigbe (Edo)
I doubt too. A quick check on truecaller, the aforementioned phone number has a different name. But then, the name Osita Akhigbe is the bank name. How could the person have opened a bank account with a fake name? Or are we missing something here

Some banks allows you to create a new bank account in a minute. All you need is phone number. You don't even need bvn. Those are the banks the boy uses.

I understand and this hole is being exploited by con men.
Nigerians always take advantage of everything. I also recently lost 20k to a WhatsApp TV. Posted it here:

OP

Are you a learner, how can someone have a first name as Osita and a surname as Akhigbe, that one alone should put your antennae on red alert for danger

Just like all those apprentice scammers who call people's phones pretending to be bank officials, aside from their bad English, what gives them away is that they start by saying "I am Mr this"......

No bank official will attach an epithet to their names when they call you on phone....... nairalanders hope I've given you a little expo today. You can thank me later
