Who da hell buys a car at the bus stop?? Go to the car dealer's shop. This what one crookd his name is Dele, did to me at the owerri airport, he pretended to work for an Airliner. I paid him for a ticket to Abuja 51k Naira, only to discover that the real fare was 29k, when i demanded for a receipt. But the airliner allowed him to use them for the scam. After that day I always go straight to the counter. One IGBO man knew what Dele was scamming me but he kept mute. I could have "dashed" Dele the 51k if he asked me nicely, because i would get a refund of 51k from the British Airways. I still got my refund but for 29k which i had the receipt for.. Nigerians should stop this scams they are destinies blocker like my dad said. cheesy

To the guy that brought the car to me for inspection . He showed the police his own advert where he posted the car for 1.5 or 1.6M naira On Jiji . He said the Chidinma also contacted him through Jiji that she got a client for his car and apparently , she used both of us . He showed the police their chat history and all and the police believed him .

Amen bro ... it’s so sad ... I hope I could actually catch her red handed . Nigeria police force is not just it . With her bvn and her details in the bank . She can be caught easily but instead , they kept asking me for huge amount of money for them to do their job . They were rather just waiting on the feedbacks I gave from my own run arounds ..

I will also link you to the person that bought my 2013 Camry sport last year as I drove it down from the wharf, he paid for it same day before the engine went cold. Be careful with your speech

He doesn't even know 2011 is different....
He basically opened himself up for fraud when he said even if its 2011 or 2012 for 3.8m.
2 totally different cars in body, shape and price.

As in..... And they come here offering ridiculous prices on Cars as if they were picked on road side in America.
OP should just thank his Star, if not, the person that sent him won't take it likely. One pointer to spot a scam is if you get any price 400k below average market price, just open your eyes well. I'm sure many have learnt from this Story and won't throw caution to the wind with the statement my budget is. Your budget may be too low for your choice Car

Thank your star that you used wisdom to go extra mile in your confirmation

Many had fell for this gimmick at that Berger, they are all involved.

Lesson for those that look for a ridiculously lesser items to the market price.

Meanwhile, I have exactly that same Camry 2012 SE, I brought it in from US myself, you can chat me up if you still need it, then we talk a reasonable price. My line is 08060066053.

Congrats once again.

Virgohills:
So it happened on the 22nd of January 2021.

I wanted to buy a Toyota camry 2013 for a client who already sent me some money to buy it at budget of 3.9m or 4m+ if seen. So I was in search of this car here and there. I checked all car platforms then I saw a red Camry 2012. I call the number (I had no true caller on my phone as at this time. We spoke briefly, said she will get back.

A woman later reached out to me saying we just spoke concerning the camry, that one has been sold. But I have another one at Berger. How much do you want you spend I said 3.8m even if its 011 or 012 its ok.

She said fine. Start heading for mile two. When you get there call ife 07039281760 he is my boy and he waiting for you at the office. I called. He told me to drop at UBA in Berger that he will pick me up. When I got to UBA i dropped called and he came. Then i followed him to see the car his madam said i should come and buy.

I saw the Camry it was super neat. I sent it to my client. He loved it. He just called said I should go ahead and buy it for him. I said okay.

Actually the car cost due to its grade is around 5.5million. But the person the phone who led me here the supposed madam of ife assured me not to worry that the car belongs to her and her husband and she has spoken with her husband that I can make payment to her and she will sort it out.

Meanwhile she already told the people there whom are the owners of the cars that I am just a mechanic that I came to help her confirm car and that she is the one pay. That they should let me test drive the car.

I've learnt a great lesson here. Congratulation, OP. When a dollar still exchange for 350 naira, that ride cost no less than 4M. You should had been wary right from the time she mentioned the price.
