it must be s very long dream
Safer choice will be to play straight win for all those home teams

The fact is that it is done all over the world. Here, I still receive unknown calls on my home line.

It is dangerous in Nigeria because some Nigerians are diabolical and extremely wicked there is no way you could have known what was done with the number by the previous user.

That's how I bought airtel line last year from their office, registered the line and went home. Two days later, I decided to register whatsapp with the line, that evening that's how I received whatsapp message.

A guy threatening me, telling me I stole his one month old 2 weeks ago and I even have the guts to start using the phone with his sim.

He threatened me with God, Ogun, sango, Poseidon, Hades, Odin, Amadioha, police, army... dude literally threatened me with everything he could.

I tried convincing him it's a new sim I just bought and was even surprised receiving his message cuz I've not given that number out yet.

The guy wasn't listening, after threats he was even begging I returned his phone cuz he saved for over a year to get that phone and he only used it for 2 weeks.

It wasn't until I showed him the sim card with the number on it before he believed me.

I was so pissed I call Airtel Care Deck and served them their own portion of what the guy served me... still not satisfied: I headed straight to their office and served them deserts.

Imagine if I was caught with such line in public, how will I convinced them that I didn't steal the guy's phone?

Re-assigning SIM is really dangerous.

Funny thing is she knew my name, it's was video call that made her believe me

I keep receiving this when I never lived in Lagos nor own a PHCN meter. What do I do?

dominique:
I don't believe this. Networks don't reassign numbers within a month of lack of activity on it. They block the line after six months, and may not recycle the line till a year later

Contact your service provider to reserve it though it cost a fee

Contact your service provider to secure your line while out of the country. MTN offer such service for N500 per year
