In thine land - thine street, thine village, thine place of work - not thine Internet!!

I'll post updates as soon as I can.

I take it this guy pleading for help is in my village.....https://www.nairaland.com/1963635/need

Seun:
Why not just help those around us who are elderly people and then post pictures about it online? I'm humbly proposing what looks like a less risky mode of operation. I feel that we can reorganize things a little bit before we start using our Forum's name to take cash from people.

if you have anybody in mind including elderly you want us to help, just email us or suggest it on the thread simple

Seun:
There is no shortage of people who need financial help. You can find them in every house, on every street, in every town, state and country. Instead of pooling resources together to help random people who just happen to catch our attention, why can't we just help those around us?

We cant exactly go to peoples houses and find out now can we

we deal with the ones that come to us and recommended by nairaland members

chiboy11:

i dont think it take days but you can find out from your bank. normally it take hours

chiboy11:
i did not tell u i dont hve money to pay, send me ur local account n i wil pay u b4 u buy the product that is wat i m saying

when did i tell you that you dont have money to pay

I take it you dont understand everything i said

chiboy11:
bro see wt she sent to me agin , cuse i dont understand, i taut u guys ve local bank account here in Nigeria .

yes we do for freight payment not purchase

chiboy11:
yess i got dis but diers no local bank account in what she sent to me, ow wil i b transferring 280 to America, dont u guys use Nigerian bank here

you can make the payment through your bank in nigeria or you can pay with your credit/debit card

chiboy11:
bro see wt she sent to me agin , cuse i dont understand, i taut u guys ve local bank account here in Nigeria .

Payment has to be made in the US, not in Nigeria. You can pay for the freight in Nigeria if the amount due is less than $500.00.

freight NOT purchase......

you can buy it yourself and we freight it for you but if you want us to buy it, then you have to pay first. We have had situations where we purchase items for customers and they end up rejecting it and it becomes our loss so that is why we change the policy.

there are loads of people on NL that can help you pay for the items through paypal and have it send to us and we freight it for you.

And she explained that to you already -

The total is $280.00, you will have to deposit this amount into our bank account before we can purchase the items for you. Attach is the our bank information.

I am not wasting your time, you need to provide the items you want us to purchase for you in order to let you know how much it will cost you for us to buy it. How can I give you information on something you haven't even let me know about. Also, I cant give how much it will cost you to ship the items because it all depends on the weight of the item. How would I be able to give you a cost on sometting I don't know how much it actual weights?

chiboy11:
ok sory bout d misunderstanding i wanted you to buy 4me like u told me in our conversation b4, i dont kno ure not d one am talkin to, no vex bro

sorry how do you expect people to understand when you keep using abbreviations to send emails

anyway, if you want us to purchase the items you have to make the payment into our US account and if you want to pay with credit card, its fine as well but we have to wait till the payment clears through our bank before we can make the purchase.

you can pay for shipment into our Nigeria account but you CANNOT pay for purchase into our Nigeria account because the items have to be paid for in USA.

now this is very rude....

ure making the order for me,stop wasting time plss nd give me the total amout i will pay for my order now plsssss

you have to specify what you wanted and stop acting aggressively.

do you want us to purchase the items for you OR you want to order the items to us and we consolidate and send to you?

if you are not making yourself clear and typing in abbreviations, how do you expect her to understand you

chiboy11:
