PoliticsRe: Northern Youths Tell Buhari - Resign Now, You’re Worse Than Jonathan by soberdrunk(m): 9:14pm On Feb 12, 2020

Under Jonathan churches were perpetually bombed, under PMB zero church have been bombed, zero Police head quarters have been bombed, zero UN building bombed, 60% of Chibok girls recovered, zero territory is held by Jonathan's siblings,..

Yet you claim you prefer a Nigeria where chufhds are bombed? You are obviously not alright, check yourself.
It is shameful and despicable that innocent lives are being lost daily and all you care about is comparing administrations, I am not a coward and wont deny being a Buhari supporter once upon a time but the truth is this administration has failed!!

Make no mistake, I am not happy with the president or the situation of Nigeria but any issue in a state the governor should be blamed first. As for the IPOB issue I refuse to go there with you because you will be myopic about it....

My brother let us put sentiments aside and please forgive my ignorance but is Buhari supposed to chasing bandits in Kaduna state? Who is the chief security officer of Kaduna state? Who collects security vote? Who was elected to be in charge of Kaduna state?

obiekunie2:
one of them spotted.




even without mentioning his name i already know who he is talking about - there is letter 'Z' in the name - if you complete am na you sabi.

bro u were smartly scammed - its the way of majority car dealers here. very very few decent ones among them.

forget the 20k and move on.
Just imagine how immature and shallow minded you are, even the OP didn't mention name but you are quick to defame, no need to even waste time with you, people like you are moved by sentiments and lack the ability to reason efficiently.......

Fentanyl:
what is this one even talking about? owing who which 30k for what

someone collected money and did not do the job and from what the op said the so called dealer did not say anything for how long until op asked him

this is advance fee fraud as far as I'm concerned

the dealer played a smart one on the op
It's either you have comprehension issues or you don't know what fraud is or both, firstly the OP himself knows deep down that that individual didn't scam him, he is simply trying to be smart and seeking validation to go after money he feels was wasted. If he said the dealer didn't send him any pictures or stopped picking his calls immediately after receiving 'part payment' it will have been a different case but it was still the dealers idea of foreign sourcing he went with behind the dealers back and the dealer still assisted even after kicking him to the curb.


Ps- I am not the individual involved, neither am I a car dealer, I am just a big fan of the truth.
Car TalkRe: Was I Scammed Or Is The Dealer Right? by soberdrunk(m): 10:10pm On Jan 30, 2020
WuTangClan:
I will refrain from mentioning any names, I just want perspectives on this matter.


Sometime towards the end of 2019, I contacted a known dealer here on Nairaland when I wanted to get a car to replace the car I was using at the time.

I admit I did not take necessary precautions such as a concrete agreement, mainly because I felt the dealer was honorable and would not try anything shady.

When I contacted him on Whatsapp, he told me I would have to pay him some money to find the car I wanted. He requested I pay 50,000 Naira for him to search for the car, I had a contact transfer 20,000 Naira to him to find the car, I also sent him the specs I desired.

Over the course of the next month or so, I constantly asked for updates and he kept telling me it would take some time to find all the specs I wanted, which made sense to me, he also sent pictures of a couple of cars which had none or few of all the specs I told him I wanted.

Along the line he mentioned one may have to import the car because it may not be found locally, but he then said he was still searching locally. I eventually decided to explore other options while waiting for him to deliver what he was paid for, because I was running out of time and I did not want to put all my eggs in one basket.

I contacted another trusted agent here, and through the agent we were able to find a suitable car, import and clear it. The car eventually landed towards the end of November 2019.

Through all this, the dealer I sent the 20,000 never updated me at all, not even to say he was still searching for the car or anything.

I ultimately took delivery of my car from the trusted agent sometime in December but had to travel for work almost immediately, and was very busy over the holidays.

A few days ago when the holiday workload finally lessened, I contacted the dealer who had not said anything to me for months, and I asked him about the status of the money I sent to him, his response was that the money could not be refunded and that the only thing that he was prepared to do was to find the car, the same car he claimed to have been searching for but had not found for months and he never even bothered to update me.

He also said he was surprised I contacted him again, by that I guess he hoped or thought I had forgotten all about the 20,000. He also said that he was aware I contacted somebody else to import the car even though he told me that he also runs an importation service, and that at the end of the day he was still involved in repairing the car the agent imported for me.

My response to all this was that it did not and does not concern him if I contacted anybody else, and that I paid him money to perform a service.

He further insisted that he would not refund any money to me.

My question now is, is the dealer right?

Do I forfeit the money I sent him just because we did not have a concrete agreement initially?

He knows I already have the car I wanted, so by telling me he can only search for a car, he is implying i have to forget about the 20,000 I sent to him.

What if I had sent 50,000 as he requested, what would be my situation now?

If someone paid for a service and the person he paid did not fulfil the service, should the client forfeit the money?

Have I been a victim of a scam, or is the dealer right?
You were not scammed, you are even owing the dealer 30k because he did your job and even when you decided to sideline him, he still helped in the the whole process.
