Few weeks ago, while browsing on facebook, I saw a sponsored advert of a farm selling packaged spiced goat meat for 10k. On the post I saw alot of likes and comments of people asking how they can get it. I checked the page selling it and saw that there were different products offered including bushmeat, full chicken, guinea fowl, etc. I messaged the number on whatsapp and I was responded to. The person showed me pictures. I even called the person for confirmation and he did pick. He then sent the account number, I paid and he confirmed. I dropped




my address as well. After 2 hours of no word, I messaged and he didn't respond on whatsapp. On a closer look on his facebook page, all I could see was anger reactions. Someone posted calling him a scammer but that post got deleted within minutes. That was when I knew I was defrauded.

After this happened, I reported the page to Facebook. Can you believe Facebook sent me a report the next day saying that the page did not break any guidelines and they did not take down the page?

From this it is obvious that Scammers are using the facebook platform to scam Nigerians. And facebook is indirectly encouraging it by allowing their ads and doing nothing about negative reports. For now I will advice everyone avoids sponsored ads from newly created facebook pages.


It’s with their policy, anybody can be lied against, their is nothing to show that he scammed you. So, that’s what they will reply. What if you were lying against him? How will Facebook know. What I do is any money I don’t need and won’t be sad if wasted is what I trade with online.
