How They Tried To Dupe Me Through Recharge Card Scam by okongo(op): 2:54pm On Jan 09, 2016
I received sms from someone with recharge card pin(fake) from baba olaifa. i called the number to talk him to send the number to whoever he intended to as it is a wrong number. the guy that aanswered me said he assisted baba olaifa to send it to his son not knowing it is wrong number. that he will tell baba. i received a call from the guy saying baba wants to speak to me to appreciate what I did. baba prayed for me and told me he is an herbalist in ife. that he would like to help me progress in my job. he asked me to call back in 5mins. knowing it was a scam as I have been subject of many ad attempt in recent time. i sent baba a message thanking him for his prayers but not to bother calling me again.

Don't mind those idiots, they've tried such to me once, though they're just learning.
Re: How They Tried To Dupe Me Through Recharge Card Scam by WishfulProtege: 6:02pm On Mar 11, 2020
This could have been true in the sense that if the sender phone is not set to save sent messages. I will suggest that you send the card back but have no reasons whatsoever to answer any calls from the person afterwards.

It happened to me two months ago... The idiot ask some unnecessary questions like what is my name, State, job etc..

My mind was trying to whisper some scam chants but I was like let me sell how it will play out.

It got to a point, I stopped receiving the goddamn call..
