I Have Just Been Scammed. How Do I Deal With This Scammer? by Kickkick(op): 3:25pm On Aug 25, 2024
Please I need you all in this matter.

I saw this Facebook advert (sponsored), selling data and I decided to patronage.

You can see our chats in the screenshots attached below.

The question is, why should a scam of this magnitude be left so openly and people are falling victim?

You can imagine hundreds and thousands of people he must've scammed of various amounts.

After I transferred the N1500 to him, he blocked me.

I'm fully ready to follow up this case until the person is apprehended and dealt with, even if it means spending more.

So I need some advice on what to do now, starting from tomorrow morning.

See a lawyer?

Complain to the bank?

Complain to police?

Approach court?

Who knows this scammer personally?

I would show the id!0t not every money he can swallow. Some even after swallowing, he'll vomit.

EMMANUEL OLUWAPELUMI OLUWASOLA, be ready for me.

There's MTN data offer of 14G for N3000, directly purchase from them. On that note, why can't a retailer who tries to sell more sell 12G for N1500? The point here is that, I was scammed and I need to deal with whoever is behind the scam.

Because N1500 is not money? That is why you need to be scammed?

Soon Facebook that is open and free to market items and properties to Nigerians will be blocked and honest Nigerians would be made to bear the brutal consequences of these brazen scammers that are getting bolder by the day...

Just imagine, a scammer pays Facebook to run a scam legally

If you had used maybe Opay to transfer, these screened shot would have been uploaded to Opay complaint section, they will communicate with him to disprove the transaction if he can't your money will be reversed but for banks na long story. The only thing you have is evidence to nail him of fraud but you will spend in hundreds of thousands at bare minimum to bring him to book..

If the 12gb for 1,500 is not suspicious enough, the validity period of 30 days should have awoken your brain cells if you had any.

I feel your pain and I detest deceit of any kind.

However, from the attached chats, you should have seen the red flag clearly. How possibly will 12GB MTN data be sold for =N=1,500 valid for 30 days?

Unfortunately, our system isn't working to swiftly and carefully identify and punish the fraudulent transactions conducted online and via the banking system.
Re: I Have Just Been Scammed. How Do I Deal With This Scammer? by johnog4sure:
After reading through the comments I really feel sorry not for the person scammed but for Nigerians and the future of Nigeria, somebody was scammed and you people are blaming the victim. Nobody is even helping, it's about Justice! And nothing, this is the reason politicians and religious leaders rape you people terribly because they know you will shame the victims (which you are one of) instead of demanding justice! Spits on you all.
