6. MYTH : They are into fraud because of poverty
[[s]b]Truth[/b]: They are into fraud because they have no conscience [/s]
While it is true that most of these fraudsters started due to poverty, they actually continue because they have no conscience. they are driven by greed.


PLEASE NOTE: They are not the only thieves in our society. Bankers, Lawyers, Ceos of comapnies and industries, Politicians etc are also scammers.

Not true.

HardMirror:
you think only highly intelligent people can scam?

I'm not saying that. I'm only trying to point out that fraud is not as easy as it seems. Despite the fact that there is a laid out template (format) for each type of fraud, doesn't necessarily guarantee a hit. Just remember that for every successful yahoo boy you see; there are 50 more unsuccessful ones who could not hot a nickel despite following the format.
You think it's easy to convince a person to send you thousands of dollars, make a person fall in love? I'm not saying they are all intelligent though, but you got to give credit to their cunning abilities. Ling story short: there are intelligent fraudsters, just as there are dumb fvcks among them.

by Yahoo boys, i mean the Nigerian Internet Fruadsters.


1. MYTH: The are very intelligent
Fact : Most of them have average or low IQ

It is popular accepted that "yahoo boys" are very smart, so much so that people would say, "why dont they use their intelligence for better things?" the truth of the matter is these guys are not as smart as you imagine. Most of them are actually less intelligent than entrepreneurs and working class people who have to be innovative, book smart and street smart to make it.
What people dont know is that Yahoo boys only follow what they call a "FORMAT" meaning everything is already laid out, somebody intelligent comes up with this format and he teaches others. There are different Formats, Romance, Alibaba, Credit Card Loading, tax return, car wrap, Come-and-carry, etc. you dont have to be smart to follow any of these formats. Hushpuppy is a proof of how unintelligent even successful Yahoo boys are. he was using his direct (personal) line and personal email address to communicate with his clients and associates with lots of incriminating materials in his personal email and personal phone line. without these, the FBI would not be able to prove he was a fraudster.
so stop respecting these guys, they are not intelligent.

2. MYTH : They can hack
Truth : 99.9% of them dont know anything about hacking
To be considered an hacker, you must actually know how front and backend program interfaces work, then be able to exploit weaknesses, bugs or loopholes in how the program is scripted. This means you must be able to understand programming languages, able to access source codes, able to build tools "executable files" that would compromise target scripts. Trust me all these boys shouting "hacking" up and down your street cannot even write a "Hello World" script in any program. in fact most of them dont even know what i mean by "hello world" because they know NOTHING about how computers or computer programs work, talkless of being able to hack.
most times you read news about some local boys hacking bank systems etc, it is all rubbish. for them to gain access to your credit card or bank information, they use basic tricks to actually steal the information from you through "social engineering" - calling you and asking you questions pretending to be from the bank or just getting basic information about you such as your Date of birth, place of birth, your schooling information and they can use these to "recover" your accounts. Dont be afraid, they cannot hack anything, they are posers and only rely on your carelessness to steal your account information.

NOTE: there are hackers, but these guys are very rare. they are 1 in 10,000 fraudsters you will meet.

3. MYTH : They are successful because of JUJU "Yahoo Plus"
Truth : the Juju is psychological
Most Nigerians already believe that boys claiming to be into yahoo are actually into JUJU. this is a big lie they want you to believe. There is no Yahoo boy that gets a kobo without "working" for it. Yahoo Plus or Not all boys have to hustle to make the money. they have to lie, they have to bomb, they have to follow up. Juju only gives them moral. It is true that most successful ones are into juju, but not because the juju makes them successful, it is because it takes a desperate and highly motivated person to go into juju. They are into Juju (yahoo plus) because they are desperate, highly motivated and focused on their Yahoo career, because of these they are more successful than the other boys that are just freelancing and not so desperate, hence people are mislead to think they are successful because of the JUJU.
Secondly, JUJU is a fraternity thing for Yahoo Boys. if you are in a fraternity, you are more likely to pull big scams because you know your guys would not betray you because they fear the JUJU bond between them. if you have a picker for example that is not in your fraternity, it is likely he would run away with your money, hence the juju part comes to play for the big time scammers.

here is an article by the Guardian Newspaper titled[b] Ritual does not give us money, Yahoo Plus boys confess[/b] https://guardian.ng/features/ritual-does-not-give-us-money-yahoo-plus-boys-confess/


4. MYTH : Only greedy people fall for their scams
TRUTH : Majority fall because they are trusting and not because they are greedy
while it is true that greed can make people fall for cheap scams, truth me; majority of victims were not victims because of greed, but because of trust. when you are a trustworthy person, you tend to trust other people easily and this makes you vulnerable to exploitation and that is what these boys do. they exploit people who trust them. Stop mocking people who are victims of scams, because most times it shows they are good people who trust easily.

5. MYTH : Only gullible people fall for their scams
TRUTH : Everyone is gullible, experience is what most victims lack.
i mean it, EVERY DAMN PERSON ON EARTH CAN BE SCAMMED. i have an uncle who is a lawyer, he would boast that no body can every scam him, yet he is one of the most scammed person i have ever met in my life. this man gets scammed by everyone around him. he was scammed so much that his mechanic made him spend over N1.3 million to repair a fault that would have cost him only N120k to fix. His electrician collected over N200k to just fix his meter (nothing was wrong with the meter). There is no human that has ever lived that cannot be scammed, that you know how some scammers work, does not mean you know everything, you only know what your experience or experience of other people teaches you, when something new comes up, that fits your fancy or need, you will fall for the scam

I don't agree with number 1.

It is well.

What's the agenda behind this thread if I may ask?

How time flies. I can remember back then when I was studying for my WAEC exam back then. The level of malpractice in the waec exam is staggering. Even external invigilators are involved.

Eat alone, die alone. It's horrible for bachelor's when they get older without a woman and a child. Who will bury you when u die at old age. To remain a bachelor for life is a spell but might realize it too late, maybe at 50 and yet still broke, yet marriage brings blessing.

my church will bury me, or better still; my family will.

Only fine face na. Nothing else.

What did you gain? Must you have sex? Is it a crime for her to warn you against her nature and why she is unfit for dating? So because she said her mind, you want to mess her up. It's not by force.[/quote][/s]f.... ck u. I hate women.

[[s]quote author=purples25 post=104578433]

Your opinion. I just don't see it that way. Men care a lot about where their future wives have been. A lot of carelessness happens in sexual relations resulting in pregnancy or stds. It just happens cuz people aren't too careful. You wouldn't understand what sex does to a woman's body.

Well, you have your view. I have mine. The same guys that say there is nothing in it are the same guys to turn around and say they aren't marrying a borehole. Good night from here.[/quote][/s]shut up

Telling you that she is fickle is like someone telling you that he is stupid. Humans don't do that. Normally it will be you that should find out if she is fickle or not. Telling you that she is fickle is a strategy to prevent you from personalizing her, also, and allow her to get away with potential bad behaviors. For example, she can choose not to pick your call for a week due to an away runs, and she will feel no sense of guilt or duty towards you. If you complain, she will remind you that she is fickle-minded, and has told you that from the beginning, which pushes the blame back on you for accepting her in the first place.

How are you so intelligent?

Op is insane.

Like 12 slice.

Nothing
