saw an advert on business forum posted by one BALOGUN about buying poultry products and birds directly from the farm and selling at wholesale price, since ive been looking for a business to do, i decided to go for selling eggs. i called the number that was posted he said minimum order was 150 but since dis is my first time, told him i wanted 100 for a start, which he accepted. he said small egg goes for 15naira and big ones goes for 20naira. i told him to mix it that is half big and half small which amounted to 525naira per crate.

I could be of help. I could be able to get you some details. Please pm me using my signature

Update. So I managed to get his address through his account number from a Good samaritan. I sent him this sms and the second msg was his reply. he started calling few minutes after he texted but i didnt pick. imagine him threatening me with my money. i think he is already scared, for him to be calling me. D police wil get him soon.

The crook even has the nerves to threaten. I don't blame him, he has been in this for years and fed fat off innocent people. Good development anyways. After he returns your money, I hope he is eventually sent to prison. At least nairaland will be free of this vicious scammer with one million and one usernames. He will meet his waterloo very soon

Well, things seem to be looking good. If only we can match the name to a face. Would be sweet. Meanwhile OP, be patient. make sure you update the police with every info you receive.

Good nairalannders someone should help us match this name to a face. Wouod personally create a special in his name. His days are numbered indeed.

Please ma, provide us with his working number so that we all (volunteer) can send him a message telling him how this particular scam gonna chock and expose him... I believe by the time 10 to 20 different numbers send him a message, the guts to threatening will go away

you shouldn't gv him more clue that u are tracking him do not send him more info on how far u hv gone to avoid him fleeing, the bank can help u get d job done...the bank branch where he opened d acct could put a hold to his acct that way they will invite him to update his info, while d bank keep u posted. Upon his arrival and confirmin dat he's d culprit, the bank will invite d police..u can then come in. Na so I take cash one small boy wey chop my 5k..i didn't mind d money I spent tryin to get him, I satisfied my conscience.

The last guy that scammed me over a galaxy S5 phone has been rendered useless. He's somewhere roaming and almost living like a beggar.

Also a guy that arranged robbers to steal my belongings back in school died after some years.

If your baba (god or babalawo) cannot send that guy to his grave before April 1st, please change him.

You don't treat scammers with levity.

That scammer is the same person with the name Ojeyemi Moses who advertises fake customs cars, cement, spaghetti, and any other commodity you can ever think of.

https://mobile.facebook.com/ojeyemi.moses?fref=nf&__tn__=C

I always encourage people to run a simple check on phone numbers before they transact business.

Next time come online to confirm any address especially when it has to do with business and money because I can tell u with all assurance that the address does not exist in lokoja, Infact federal medical centre and ganaja junction are miles apart. He capitalized on ur ignorance about the town and gave u a phantom address.
I was about saying that the ganaja junction I know to FMC is quite a distance...

He must not go scot free, you can also go to a glo office since he's using a glo number, ask them for the people he used to call most with his real number, that's definitely going to be his family, then track one of them down, they will fish him out.
