My Experience With An Atm Swindler by aszunky: 12:16pm On Nov 19, 2017
Yesterday will ever remain an unforgettable experience for me.As i headed home from luth college gate,just as i advanced to take 'marwa' heading towards ilasa area just close to the 'okada' park a guy approached asking for directions to a particular place where they reset broken bones,i told him i dont know the place.He wwnt on to ask another guy as i was about to leave the guy he went to meet came back to me that the guy came from ado ekiti and he has a particular it that is being sought after by yemkem and is sold for 800k.

The guy told me that we should assist him and take him to the place that the guy may end up falling into wrong hands there loosing the entire 800k and the item,he further told me that we can collect 5k each from him.So we took two okadas to the back of luth gate(i and the guy that said we should help were on one while the guy that wants to sell was on the other)while on the bike the guy picked a fake call and told the person he was speaking with that he is on his way to the bank but my memory didnt snapped to the fact that it was a saturday and that it was already past 5.

We eventually got to a street,we now planned that we should say we are brothers.

As we were walking round the street the guy that wants to sell the item now saw one man he now told us that he is the one he saw on tv with yemkem,we approached him and explained our mission to him.He took us to the back of one uncompleted building,we told him that we were family and we wanted to sell the stuff to him,we first told him that we would sell it for 1.2million,the man now said he wants to test if its original or fake,asked for an handkerchief,he was given he instructed the guy with the supposed item to drop it on to the handkerchief,after numerous incantations he told us that we were lying that we werent family and that we just met by the road and we decided to help.He told us to tell the truth or else he would hit us with charm we now told him the truth,he told us to bring whatsoever we had in our pockets ranging from money to keys to atm cards.He said we should place it on the ground and step on it that he wants to help us.

He brought the 'hanky' and said we should pray on it for goodluck.He now said that each of us should tell him all the money we have either with us,at home or in the bank ,i told him mine likewise the other guy.He said that one one the money is possessed that i should i go home and bring it,i told him that my money is in the bank,he asked me to go home and bring my atm that i should wrap it in a nylon bag meanwhile he asked of my atm pin which i divulged to him.

He now asked us to stand up he brought out something that looked like a dried seed,recited some incantations on it then used it to hit our stomachs,it now looks as if it entered inside us.He told us that we have like four hours to go home to bring our atms and come back because of the efficacy of the charm that if it has passed that we would start vomitting blood.He asked how much do i have left i told him nothing he brought 500 from the 2500 i dropped and told me to go and come back.He said i should leave my phone that was wen i snapped back to reality,i reached for my money,i was able to take back 1k,i reached for my phone we started to struggle,my phone fell inside water i eventually got it out,he gave me a slap i shouted then i ran away.

That was how it went yesterday,only God saved me if not i would have lost my phone.My other saving grace was that i dropped my atm at home.

I want to advise people to be more careful when dealing with strangers

Next time, don't get carried away by the promise of monetary rewards from total strangers.


You might not be this lucky next time.


be contented with the little that you own.

this thing happened to me when I was coming back from work a man asked me where rhema busstop that he was coming from ghana to deliever goods
in my mind I was like which one is rhema busstop again. then I politely told him that he should ask around, then another guy(they were together) came and said in my ear that we should use the other guy head, then the other guy said he had phones and laptops inside his vehicle that I should help him and count it that he could not count that when am through he will compensate me well, thank God that someone just told me last week that those type of people where kidnappers, I was so scared that I just started running till I reached home.
people reading this post beware because they are using this method to kidnap people

They tried this nonsense on me in 1996.

I noticed that strange people usually approached me to ask for directions to an estate and I knew that the estate did not exist, so I usually ignored them. I guessed that they were fraudsters.

However, I was curious, so one day I decided to stop and listen to them in order to find out what the scam was about.

The first guy approached me and asked for directions to the estate. He had a fake French accent. I told him that I didn't know where the estate was. He said that he came from Ivory Coast to sell goods to a woman that lived in the estate.

The second fraudster appeared on cue. He said that this was a great opportunity for both of us. He said that we could buy the goods off the guy and sell them ourselves because they were very cheap.

I said, "You are not serious" and walked away.
