I ALWAYS BELIEVE IN SEE & BUY.

AchievGreatness:
Good morning all.

I had to create another account because I know that if people check my past posts and topics, they wouldn't believe such an educated individual could get scammed.

[s]Here's the succinct narrative:

A former client from Delta sent me money to help him get an iPhone here in Lagos. He sent me the money because he's not new to me.

Usually, I have people I buy phone's from. I just contact them on whatsapp. I don't go to computer village again since I could fall into the wrong hands.

Most of the products from my trusted sources came with far exorbitant prices. But just that morning, I saw Instagram suggesting that I follow a page (which I have the screenshot). I diligently scrolled through and saw that they have been operating since July 2019. And I saw people's comments and video of people buying at their store.

So I contacted the number. He told me they have 2 branches. Agungi and Shagamu. He gave it at a lesser price compared to others. In fact, he sent me their price list, and everything was professional. I even asked for their CAC certificate and he sent it. When I saw the price of another phone, I told a lady about it and she also was interested.

Now I told him I wouldn't pay till I see the product. That I would go to their store on the Island because I stay on the mainland. He then said it's only available at Sagamu and it would take me over 2 hours to get there. I said I was going to go there. He then said I could pay half and he would deliver the product to the man. I insisted on going. Unluckily, the man sent another message that hour that I should do everything possible for him to get the phone the next day. No delays. I knew it would never work if I set out around 3pm for Sagamu.

So I sent the money. The other lady said she's even at a friend's place not too far from Sagamu. I asked her to go to the store. She refused. So I knew I just had to send the money. Later she said she'll go. On getting there, the owner of the store said her phone was stolen a few days back and that they have been using her IG to scam people. At first, I wanted to exert my anger on an individual who behaved with such negligence. But I chose to focus on this guy.

He doesn't pick calls anymore. He'll read my message online with no replies.

I ran to both banks. Mine and his to report before they closed but I could see from their body language as though it's a lost course. I called customer care. Went on their social handles as well.

Now, last night someone contacted me that he saw that I was following that account. That he was scammed 6days ago from the same account. I have screenshota from that person as well. He sent him the same bank details. The same phone number and whatsapp number.

I know i would get insulted for posting this. I insult people too when they act dumb. I never knew someone like me could ever get scammed.

Please, what can I do. The amount is over 100k.
The man contacted me this morning. I don't know what to tell him.

Please advise me.[/s]..

Anytime I see that nonsense I had to create this new account, I always know IT'S A STUPÎD COOKED UP STORY!

YOUR PROBLEM!

Stanchem029:

SpecialAgent:


Nobody is above getting scam, even I, was scammed before, d person was just lucky he broke all contact & I can't find him again. And at that time, I made huge profits on my sales, so I didn't put much effort.


But if the guy get phone number, bank account and even dey online. His own don finish be that, He will PAY WITH INTEREST

jahlove4jah:
And this is your own format of scamming people on NL. You create a new handle to scam people and win needless sympathy.

This 2020 and not 1920.

I dare you to post the screen shots of the transactions alerts from your bank (deposit and credits) and the chats screenshots before 1pm today and I will transfer N10, 000 to you as compensation.

AchievGreatness:
He does.
I would attach the Instagram and whatsapp and call number plus bank details. And the screenshot from the other guy if I see someone that can help. Should I sir?

AchievGreatness:
I would. I'm modifying the post right away. Even though it's meagre to the amount.

jahlove4jah:
Drop.

AchievGreatness:
Attached.

What I'm thinking ia that someone else should contact him on whatsapp pretending to want a phone from somewhere like Ibadan.

Then when he concludes and sends his account details. The person should just say that it's not going through. So he would be forced to send another account. Because I'm guessing the former might be a decoy account. His greed would force him to send his own account.

What do you think?

AchievGreatness:
Ok sir.
Any clue on the search keyword to use?

jahlove4jah:
If you convince me on the authencity of this post, I will help you to the best of my ability. Post the debit and credit alert SMS of the transactions. I have helped people to seek redress over fraud.

Tonka:
I cant remember but try how to recover your money back from being scam

AchievGreatness:
I have sent debit alert, our chats, etc. What else is needed please?

jahlove4jah:
I saw the debits sent above. Let us have the transaction details. Your credit alerts when the friend from Delta sent the money to you and your debit alerts when you paid the money to the supposed scammer.

I have laughed like this before when I thought others were dumb for being scammed.

Karma...
