You assume I am a female and even equated me with your mum and female siblings? Interesting.

Fahdiga1:
Pained bitch

Some of you are not just raised right. A married woman swallowing the bullshit of the man she is legally married to is the person you refer to as a pained bitch?

Her type of person is so rare! They are both still legally married, not divorced but Ighalo have been frolicking and sleeping around like the typical Niger Deltan man that he is. Most Nigerian men in Europe and the Western world don't even do a fraction of this before seeing their life and hard work snatched from them.

Emmanuel Eboue didn't do up to this before he was relegated to being a destitute. Sonia holds the ace here and it isn't because she wants to capitalize on the situation but clearly out of love.


She deserves better than a man who can't keep his third legs in between. I just pray Ighalo won't resolve to crowdfunding and require the Edo State/Federal Government assistance at some point in his life because it is fast looking like it with the look of things.

ScammerUkpayaho:
FRAUD ALERT! FRAUD ALERT!! FRAU ALERT!!!

Ukpayahor the only thing you have given me so far are shades of a scammer.
I sent money to Ukpayahor on the morning of two days ago for the freezer he advertised here. He immediately told me he is going from Warri to Portharcourt where the freezer is to send to me. I called him yesterday afternoon since I didn't hear from him, he told me he was on the road but he had said he was leaving day before yesterday. In the evening I called him again to know if he had arrived and how he is sending the freezer to me? he refused to pick my calls. Today I called him in the morning he also refused to pick my calls. I sent him WhatsApp message asking if he has put the freezer on the way to me, he didn't read it though he was online, then I sent him another message that I will start working on his case if he doesn't give me any tangible thing by 10am before he responded that I should be patient he will get back to me. I don't know why I should be patient indefinitely? I also don't know if it's the freezer I sent money for or the one I want to beg for that he will get back to me on as I am yet to see why he prioritize himself here? It seemed he came to collect money to settle himself while I should stand still till he decides otherwise because he is running his life like nothing happened.

He transacted with me on 09021498333 which he also uses to run his WhatsApp TV called " the sweet spot". The first few times I called, it was his live in girlfriend who picked, apparently they run their shiit together and she is very much in the know, also it was her account he asked me to send money into.

I'm giving him little time to clear himself before I bring more details on him. Below is picture of him and his girlfriend whose account received my money.

I don't want to blame you because I'm sure you dealt with him in good faith. However, the red flag was there already and it was the fact that you sent money to another account, which isn't that of the person you're dealing with.

I ran a quick check and realised he has another moniker which is JeffSiberstein. Indeed, he runs a WhatsApp Live TV.

Kindly go ahead and publish all the details you have on him instantly, including that of the live-in girlfriend.

Kobojunkie:
Jesus Christ more than made it clear that it is not what you eat that defiled you, makes you unholy,but instead what you have stored up in your heart that does that.

Also, you are not called to follow in the footsteps of Daniel and the 3 Hebrews, but instead the obedience of the teachings and commandments of Jesus Christ, the New Covenant Law of God in the Kingdom of God.

I take it you have a full understanding of what 2 Corinthians 6:14 is all about? Not trying to paint a religion as bad but we clearly don't serve the same God, hold the same belief on worship and love.

There is a reason Roman Pagan worship crept into the early church.

alizma:
And some collect loan for purpose that doesn't add value to their lives. e.g someone collect 200,000 loan, drop 50k in his business, give girlfriend 40k for her birthday, send 20k to his mum and siblings as the success son who has a business in the city, drop 50k in his house as big guy concern and 40k in his account so that when he is talking to his babe he can comfortably say do you need cash or transfer.
The money at home and bank will eventually go into buying drink for himself and friends and to the babe but when you ask him what did he do with the loan, he will say "I put it in my business".

At the emboldened, like seriously?

DaddyRochie1642:
This woman has a deep rooted hatred for this baba ijesha of a man, there is something she is not telling us that happened between them,maybe a deal gone bad or something, all these while she never talked About her own rape case so why now

They had a relationship way back and wanted to rekindle recently after her divorce. That is the only "dirt" Yomi Fabiyi has on Princess and why he keeps jumping around like a Silverback Gorilla.

Lately, I have been reading how these guys have been sending damaging messages to borrowers' family members, bosses and colleagues, both here on Nairaland and on Twitter.

A fellow created a thread saying he wanted to commit suicide as he had borrowed from various loan sharks and have accrued about N700k in interest and principal.

Unsolicited text messages keep dropping on my phone about how a contact is a "wanted criminal" and has "disappeared" with their "company money".

If you value your financial health, avoid them, not just because of the embarrassments and approach with which they adopt in recovering their monies but because of the addiction that comes with it.

There's always a pattern; when the country is in disarray or when youths just round off a protest, the government will wake up to formulate one senseless giveaway and ask Osinbajo to be in charge.

Insightful! That number 5 is a major red flag. I recall MMM of yesteryears and how some attained the position of "Guiders" (whatever it means). It was a Guider who convinced me to join only for the scheme to crash the moment my money went in.

Unfortunately, Ponzi schemes will always thrive despite these signs because people are greedy and want to make so much by doing so little.

bruf:
Good morning all,

I thank as many that lended their voices over the defective Microwave issue. We've been able to reach a resolve, although not as I would have wanted, but I want to get over with this and i as well want peace.

Please I appeal that if you quoted me (us), that you please edit the part carrying his (our) name(s) or kindly 'unquote' me (him). Thank you.

Sanchez this most unfair... only God, I and Her know the truth... I don’t have any fraudulent records here and this is most unfair... I disclosed to her the truth. You call me if you wish but this most unfair and if she wants her money back I can refund..but this is most unfair to judge without hearing from me.. I have explained it all nothing but the truth.

This won't work on me. I claimed you raised some salient points in your first post but criticised the tone on your post. 3 weeks is indeed a whole lot of time to use a newly purchased product but she stated she put to bed and recently got out of the hospital, which makes perfect sense as to why she hasn't used it since she took custody of the MCW. I saw your chat with her and it is nothing short of disgust. I don't want to play the woman card but she is your customer before anything, whether she bought the MCW from your neighbour or you. She is hurt and aggrieved and you thought the only way to address the issue is to threaten her and publish her name when in reality you failed to address the main issue which is the fact that the item she purchased is defective.

I have no business calling you. I know how difficult customers can be but she told her side just like you did yours but you couldn't just bring yourself to act like a seller who sold a defective product, either deliberately or otherwise. As far as I am concerned, the transaction was fraudulent from the time you posted it on here. And interestingly, you seem to be more concerned about your reputation online rather than to address the issue on ground.

I got your PM but I won't respond to it. I didn't buy the item. The person who did is displeased. We sincerely need to make this place safer mostly for buyers and also protect sellers while at it.

I have your details but I won't dox you further. The basic is what has been posted.

You wonder why the Fulanis and the Presidency insult the Igbo people periodically without fear of being called to order... The enemy of the Igbos are none other than Igbo politicians.

Walkee:
serve me better by being a creep obsessed with knowing what I'm thinking so that they can advertise it to me and get paid? Lol you must be a blogger or joker

How you flaunt your ignorance without knowing what a cookie does is hilarious. Pray tell, what is the value of items/products you've bought since you've been seeing ecommerce ads? Most of you overrate and place too much importance on yourselves. Not like the wealthiest Nigerian has that much Internet spending power but people with lesser are worried about seeing ads and worried about retargetting.

Cookies are the reasons you don't have to enter your password time and again on Facebook, Nairaland, or some other social media/forum platforms when returning.

SweetBuns:
Do you know that data on your internet habits and activities costs big money in the data and analytics market?
Companies spend billions on adverts every financial year, and it’s crucial they spend money on the right data and advert targeting the right demographic (target audience)

What website tracks you?? Do you know them??
Here are mine tho

If you wanna avoid tracking as a whole, make use of DuckDuckGo and Brave Browser

Tracking isn't just for targeting and retargeting alone.

If you are a blogger or you own a site, perhaps you would have a better understanding of what those cookies and trackers do. Simply put:

1. They help tell the country of a visitor (this eventually help bloggers measure how their websites or blogs perform in certain countries).

2. It also gives an insight into your demographics (gender, age, etc. Note: this is always measured whether or not you use Brave or other concealing browsers. Your device is powered by Google's Android).

3. It helps make site owners serve you better and even enhance your overall browsing experience on such sites.

The difference between black and white is that:

White gives freely without even looking back.

But we Nigerians, nah everything be selling, I could remember somebody came calling when I wanted to upgrade my I better pass my neigbour generator to something bigger, I had to hand it over freely, without even collecting kobo after buying my big generator, even with fuel inside...

You see some people here, would be selling what they should give out freely and would even put ridiculous prices...

Some people would come here and be selling plastic (God), I know some people wants to sell and add money to upgrade, but some items can't even be given out freely, not to talk of selling....

Please let learn how to give out freely...

I know Nigeria is hard, but not all items should be sold...

You are free to quote and insult me, because truth is bitter.... I don't owe anybody...

Happy sunday

This shouldn't be about race or colour. The major difference between the two you compared is economy and standard of living. So many Nigerians are living below poverty lines and some are forced to sell off items for temporal sustenance.

I get irked when I see those outrageous amounts on items that are excessively used but then I wouldn't blame them much. From my standpoint, it could be considered as greed but to a seller, it is his/her only way of buying the next food items.

I know someone who wanted to sell one of her home appliances to someone and had already spent the money of the item in her head before the person actually came to pick it up.

Nigerians are good people and lack is the major reason for the "greed" we all point out. If everyone had more than enough, I am dead sure most will give out freely and wouldn't even wait till the item is almost out of commission. We sell everything because there is no money. Some truly want to give out but their pockets can't just afford that luxury for now.

The only GREEDY people you will see on this thread are middlemen who are not just contented with the amount the real item owner will give them from sales but making extra monies from each items sold. I am also glad you acknowledged people are going through a lot and Nigeria is hard at the moment and that counts.

akeeng:
How do they get defaulter phone contacts?

Simple. You have to give them "basic access" for their app to work on your phone and for you to be eligible for a loan. The moment you do that, your contacts, messages (including debit/credit messages will be scanned). All of of these will determine your credit worthiness in the end but at a cost; first a lien is placed on your bank account via your submitted debit card should you get a loan and then your contacts will be extracted just in case they are needed.

You might not qualify for a loan if you try to get a loan on a device without contacts or bank SMSes.

sisisioge:
Wow! Those text were really bad. I guess the new generation fintechs have gotten ruthless with their recovery. Back then they weren't that aggressive with the recovery, they'd rather plead for the repayment. But if you look at the matter from these fintechs' point of view, people owe them in scary millions that would make you wonder if the debtors have conscience at all. To make matters worse, some are so determined with their default that they would even insult the agents, discard their sins or even stop using their bank accounts. No wonder they decided to shame them like that. I guess desperate times call for desperate measures. Imagine a company having over 500million in over due loans to a multitude of 5k crooners...na war o.

I wouldn't refer to those guys as the proper fintechs we all know. That's just LAPO 2.0. They evolved and thought to go digital rather than connect with market folks. Unfortunately, their account officers double as recovery officers which is why they are ruthless in recovering their loans.

Unfortunately for cash strapped folks, LAPO has up to four active apps and the approach is the same when someone borrows from either. I keep getting embarrassing texts from them over one of my contacts who borrowed from them.

The scenario here is very simple; you kept on borrowing from various loan sharks as a result of your credit rating and never bothered to pay back. You probably enjoyed the idea of getting "free" credit alert, so much so that you squandered the whole thing on what doesn't make sense. Say you kept borrowing; what prevented you from making repayments when you earn about a N100k monthly, even if it was in bits?

I know most people with a lifestyle of borrowing barely have savings, which accounts for why you resorted to selling your properties but what happened to your salary while you borrowed to the tune of N700k (which I find unbelievable BTW)? I wouldn't advise you to take your own life. Think of the pain you and the scar you'd be inflicting on your family. Live through the shame, slave and work to pay them back. Inform your bosses, line manager, or supervisor and tell them you are being threatened. This will help cushion the effect of these sharks informing your colleagues and bosses.

Finally, NEVER borrow from loan sharks! Anyone who is a regular with them can never amount to a thing.

This is not a call out o, I just need others opinion cos I have bought lots of stuffs here and I didn't even know I will ever post long episode here
So this man said he was doing furniture Clarence sales ... So I messaged him on WhatsApp for a tv stand and he said 28k. I priced it to 25k and we had a deal.
Sending the picture today it's completely different and smaller than what I wanted fah.. he said he sells it 38k in his shop and am like.. you were the one that said it's clearance sale and that's why I reached out.. in his post I even saw something like ' thanks nairaland we have extended the clearance sale so keep the order coming' so I was convinced as I have had lots of good deals here
Even if he had told me the normal price we go still price am and reach an agreement noni.. u get? But a good job ni koko

Anyways please what should I do now, if I reject it it's wickedness abi and if I collect it it's asif am forcing myself to take what I honestly don't like or proud of

Please reject it outrightly. If you don't, he will be bold to do the same to others. Plus, this is a case of purposely selling a different item from what was advertised. That wasn't what you paid for.

Imagine claiming it is a clearance sales only to find out he actually pieces them together in his workshop. Nigeria is hard and monies aren't easy to come by. However, before you reject it, call him out so others won't fall victim of this wicked act. We have so many exploiting/selling defective items to others in the name of clearance sales.

There's a whole lot of difference between asking a social media platform to regulate its channel since fake news litter cyberspace these days. It is another thing to gag Nigerians from using Twitter just because a bigoted president who threatened genocide on a people had his tweet reported and taken down.

Unfortunately, even the big social media platforms can't "regulate" their site's contents just like that. These platforms are user-generated and act as micro-blogging platforms. If people can't air their opinion, then it takes away the social media platform's objective.

Almost every government would love to gag social media now since no one relies on government controlled media anymore. People see injustice around them, record them and write about them on their pages, which the government doesn't like.

If social media was gagged during Jonathan's time, the crop of failures we have now as leaders under the APC wouldn't even win because it was a vital tool to them.

Decluttering Lori 70k? Funny

Criticize constructively. If you think a 70k shoe that is originally sold for over 100k is absurd, just pass on. It isn't every time you will see N2,500 shoes just because it is a clearance sales thread.

If "decluttering" is the word in contention then I don't think it is a basis for argument as doing this would mean shvtting on someone else's business in the name of an applied English word.

I don't drink, I have never smoked in my life and I do not womanise. This horrible mindset has led many males into thinking they must accept either one or more of these vices.

Am I religious? No! It is high time we stopped normalising craze.

How do I get this VPN?

On PlayStore. There are so many free versions that you can use. I recommend Windscribe and Thunder VPN.

Coming from a typical Buharist? I am sure you have been sent to make sure the ban is absolute? Purchased a one year VPN plan on Turbo just yesterday because I saw the madness coming.

PS: If you can't afford a premium VPN, search online for modded ones. They are not actually right but they are premium would get you to use social media platforms just fine.
