Crime › Advice Needed! How Can I Recover My Money From A Criminal Who Is Proving Smart ? by sunshine012(op):
Hello guys,

please I really need your help and assistance on what to do.

A vehicle was sent to me from the US and I contracted the services of a clearing agent to clear out the car from the port.

The vehicle is a 2012 Honda which we planned to resell for little profit to keep the family going.

The agent charged a total of 1.3M (One million three hundred thousand) which we paid him.

Weeks passed and the car has still not being brought out from the port, he kept on giving excuses daily.

I had to go to Tin-Can myself to find out what is going on, and I discovered that this agent has not done anything on the job and he has been deceiving us. I called him to confront him and he immediately hungup and blocked all my numbers.

I went to his house and they said he has moved. He was no where to be found. Meanwhile as all this was happening, the vehicle was incurring demurrage of hundreds of thousands daily.

We had to start running around to look for another money to bring out the car from the port. Luckily, a family friend borrowed me money and we gave the job to another agent to bring out the car.

While all this was happening, my dad took ill and had issue with his prostrate and was not able to urinate. We rushed him to hospital and they said he has to do operation. There was no single money in the family again to foot the medical bills.

The next monday, with tears and frustration, I went to the State CID (Panti, Yaba) to report the case and we were asked to bring close to 100k for them to handle the case. Every single thing I did, they requested money. To write petition, I paid. To sign petition, I paid. To print out, I paid. To submit, I paid.

Luckily after some months, the criminal was arrested.

Now to produce the money he duped from us and put my family in such pain for over 2 months became a wahala again.

Upon all the promise, the police gave me that I will recover my money when he is caught. They made no strong effort to recover the money for me even though I had spent over 100k in their hand. They were handling the criminal with soft hand.

The next thing I know, the criminal is out on bail and is walking freely.

I reported the case to the bank and they listed lots of documents to provide (police report, court order) before they can even hear my case. They are not being helpful. They expect me to go back to the police who failed me to ask for police report so they will use that opportunity to extort me again.

Does that mean that the common man cannot get help or justice in this country??

How can you dupe someone such a large amount of money and get away with it in broad day light

My 1.3M is still hanging in his hand. One kobo I have not seen.

All the money I spent in the hands of the police, down the drain

My father is still langushing in pain taking home medications as there is no money for operation.

I really don't know why people are very wicked with no integrity. How can you just collect someones money and disappear, because you feel that everything goes in Nigeria. In this recession when things are hard

The criminal is giving the impression that I can't do anything, that he is hardened and will get away with anything.

I trusted this man when I gave him this job and he failed me and put me in this situation, and now I am helpless.

Many things we need money for in the family now, and our hard earned money is just sitting in the bank account of a fraudster

Please who can advise me??

What do I do from here?

How can I recover my money??
