Hello fellow Nairalanders

There is something and I want to share here and I will like to hear your opinion about it.

There is this elderly woman in my neighborhood, I used to greet her very well and I know her children too.

One thing, I noticed is that, anytime I dress well and flashy, people do see me as a Yahoo boy and I don't know why but I do tell them am not a Yahoo boy or ignore them.

So I was going out this morning I saw this woman and greeted her, she responded and started complimenting me, jokingly calling me a Yahoo boy. I told her straight and clear that I am not a Yahoo boy. That was when she started telling me Yahoo is not a bad thing, telling me one of her children does Yahoo for a living. She told me if blood is not involved, I am good to go.

I feel irritated and just walk away and start thinking, how bad have we gone this far that an elderly person will start advising me to do Yahoo and even aware her son is doing it and she is not even ashamed.

We are in a deep mess in this country!

I can swear you stay in Edo OR Delta

Over the time, most of these internet fraudsters have stated investing their ill gotten money and funny as it may sound, it really working for them. Some owned big investment such as hotel, transportation companies, while some are into real estate etc. Ask most builders and developers, you will be amazed to know that it's yahoo boys that patronise them most. Most of them are now wise and those wise ones are very down to earth. They don't make noise or flash their wealth, rather they are busy investing.

Just last month, one yahoo boy was made chairman in a church occasion. Even in the presence of legit hustling youths and elders in the church. The mother who was once living in one room face2face apartment has been promoted to women leader in the church just because her son has now made money and upgraded her mother to a very standard and well furnished 2 bedroom apartment. Whenever the church want to do home event, they always choose her house. In fact on the occasion day, church members and pastors were just hailing Chairman's mother Here and there Abeg money get power. Money changes storyline and easily attract things to you.

P:S I do not in anywhere support or do fraud, but I'm only airing my opinion and experience which i believe some of you will also agree to some point i raised.

See how black man is destroying his society ?

If you criticize yahoo and encourage Nigeria politics then you are just a joker like Liar Muham....

It has been said over and over again that the millionaires who were born poor had to at one point of their lives do something illegal to set a foundation.

Not true at all!

No doubt many millionaires made their monies questionably. But generalising bad things is only a way for people involved in shady stuff to justify themselves.

Life is all about buying and selling values. Many many millionaires today didn't even know they'll become millionaires. They just started out simply adding value. The value they added grew in demand, helping them enlarge their coasts...

Don't let us justify illegality under any guise. Look around. There are many making it legitimately low-key...

A country where there is no hope, the only hope will be illegal business.

Slave trade is worse than Internet fraud. There was no karma for those involved in the slave trade. Hence, fear of karma should not be a basis for scaring people not to engage in fraud. It should be on the basis that fraud is bad period.

I'm not really a fan either
The major reason why I am against fraud is that it destroys our communities and make it worse
Slavery to them on the other hand was nothing more than getting glorified beasts of burden to do the manual work to build their counties and enrich the oligarchy
Morality aside, the west, America especially is a better country for it.
Nigeria on the other hand is destroying the fabric of the country by using fraud
Destroying your reputation
Destroying the mentality of the youth
Promoting the fake idea of yahoo plus which is leading to murder of your own people's for nothing
Most of that money being channelled to consumerism (white man made products btw)
And the list goes on
The cons far outweighs the pros of fraud in a practical sense in Nigeria

If ur close Neighbor doesn’t know the work u do and they reason ure a yahoo boy. Check urself ooo

Do u dress responsibly? U didn’t say what work u do. U only denied not being a yahoo boy.

KingDash:
bros if you see the way efcc dey carry boys ba, you no reconsider... yahoo no good.

They're only taking boys and Hope you understand

Legal or illegal just make sure you escape this poverty

IJOBA11:
Her son go soon pluck her eyes

You will hardly see a rich man/woman who did not gotten his/her wealth illegally. There must be tricks to cheat others in order to add to their own riches.. As for me, yahoo is okay as far as you are starving, Even government is stealing from the poor, but the main thing is.. Hear me o, don't involve rituals, sharing innocent blood.. Do ur work and make your yahoo as ur side hustle, if e no pay, feed with your real work.. No blood abeg

this shit y'all keep saying "No blood Abeg" is damn funny. No blood for real? What about the trauma the victim will face? Some victims take their lives by committing suicide... Some victims end up useless for life. Some victims end up homeless. Some end up in jail or generally become a burden on the society. No blood for real? Smh.

Please where did you get your statistics from?

THIS IS FALSE less you prove it!

FALSE!!!

Except you only generalize the term ILLEGAL and what you meant is different from the denotative meaning.

And till you explain..

IT IS FALSE!!!

Dyke15:
Tried doing dat till my parents called me inside their room at d middle of d night ND gave me sound advice
Omo na so I commot hand

well me I'm chastised, disrespected and ridiculed for not doing. Maybe your parents are morally upright and comfortable with their earnings and feel they can take care of you with their earnings until you are capable of earning legally for yourself

ActuaRise696969:


Why dont you tell her that you are not smart enough to be a cyber terrorist?

Stereotype, smart people do legal business, work for organization n engage in entrepreneur. On the other hand foolish people rob others of their hard earn money

Dproperties:

They're only taking boys and Hope you understand

Goodluck mate..

One day I was in a taxi and two elderly women were complaining about the government. They said "work them no give our children, salary them no dey pay us, the Yahoo Yahoo wer our children dey use survive, them dey pursue them. Yahoo Yahoo na crime? No be their brain wer God give them them dey use?"

I saw from many perspectives that day.
It is well!

This is the devil tempting young people to commit crimes and lose their youth in prison.
