Crime › Re: Have You Ever Been Scammed? Share Your Experience!! by Shattuck(m): 7:03pm On Apr 23, 2020 |
jamael: Funny scam when I was still a child.
Mine happened a long time ago. However, I still remember it crystal clear cuz it taught me some deep lessons.
I schooled in a religious school, back then in Sokoto, Mamman Barkeji Nursery and Primary School. In my Primary 3, I got first position for the first time and became the class prefect. Normally, girls started coming closer to me. I also reciprocated their kind gesture. There was this beautiful girl who came second that term. She was taller then most of us, had a pointed nose, and a very wonderful smile. I think her name was like Henuwell.
Naturally, I liked her. After school one day, a friend of mine, Musa, came to me and told me that she liked me and that she wanted to be my friend and would need some money. Mind you, I was about 7 years old then oh. Happily, I have him the little I has on me, about 10 kobo.
The next day, during the morning assembly, he told me that she was very grateful and that she loved me for that. My head began to swell. He asked whether I had some more money for her that it would make her love me the more. Unfortunately, I didn't have any with me, but I promised him that I would get it for him the next day. My people, that was how I started stealing the small change from our children's purse that was kept in my parent's room. I stole the N 25 that was there and gave it to the boy. Everyday, I got one new love story or another from the girl about how she was thinking of me, how she loved me better than any other boy, etc through Musa. 
On one Monday morning, nemesis decided to pursue and catch up with me. I went into the Children's purse and lo and behold, only N 500 note was left there. Without thinking twice, I took the money and kept it in my bag. When it was time for us to go, my dad told us to enter his vehicle so that he could pick up our neighbours and drop us all at school. I really don't know what happened, but when he came out of the room, he came out with an empty bag of Children's money and began to ask for the thief. All of us initially denied it. Then my mom joined him and began to beg us to open up. By that time, I was already shaking. That was how I confessed and got serious beatings from both my parents. I cried and cried and cried. It was really painful. After some time, my parents stopped and bundled me inside the car.
As soon as we got to school, they told the Headmaster and I went for the morning assembly. The first thing that Musa asked when he saw me was whether I came with the money. At that point, the pain I was feeling was more than my love for Henuwell and I told him to leave me alone. As soon as the assembly was dismissed, my class teacher called me to kneel down under the tree for stealing from my parents. I then told him that it was because of Musa and Henuwell.
When both of them came, Musa couldn't look at me. As the man was about to punish both of them, the girl shouted that she didn't know anything about it. That was when Musa confessed that he didn't even talk to the girl and that he was using the money I gave him for himself. You need extra beatings I received that morning. Musa was called a criminal, was terribly beaten and got seriously punished throughout the whole day. They even asked reported him to his parents.
To crown it all, about a week later, I learnt that Henuwell actually really loved me and wanted to be my good friend. 
The next term, I left that school.
That was how I was scammed. This stuff happened about 16 years ago, but funny enough, as I was typing this, I could still visualise Henuwell's face. 
Edit: For those asking about the 10 kobo I gave Musa, like I said initially, I don't exactly remember the actual value, but I know it was the change I had on me which was a coin.
Also, N 500 note was in existence as at 2003/2004  I kinda like your story nice one I had a primary school crush too,her name was justina have searched for her on Facebook couldn't find her. |

The question here is "why cant Nigeria train her?"... that is where "Limiting dreams or killing dreams" comes in... because it does not have neither the facility or infrastructure to train her.
If Nigeria could train her it means that it has the avenue to train thousands, thereby making it cheaper for a lot of "dreams" to be actualized.. that has always been my take on certain issues you see the govt trying to make us feel that all is well because a Nigerian achieved success in a foreign land,for the fact that your nation cannot help you succeed means such is a failed society. |

light099: Crap!
The only hit I know which shook the whole of African planet is Awilo Album around 1998 or so. It went as far as Europe and America. These were days with no twitter or internet to trend a song, yet it crossed borders all the way from Congo. I don't think any other Album can ever shake Africa like that Awilo album that yr. Awilo dance turned to street madness that year with street littered with everyone dancing. Up till today we never knew what he was singing but the hood created their own local lyrics for the songs.
Churchs were not left out as every church then beat Awilo's drum style. Once the drummer changes to Awilo and intruments follow suit, na dance madness go follow am. Awilo was the greatest dance and music album revolution till date.
awilo no be here oh,its nostalgic for me sha damn those days though |
