Opeyemi5:
thanks so much sir
It's not about refund I'm fighting sir
The 100k was for s7 edge which he already picked
The only issue is mikky does not believe I was not the one that sent the money
And I keep telling him
Wat he could say is wen they handcuff me wen I pick my item that I will know
I begged him to link me with the Akinlolu that send funds to him but my oga won't
Al this pple I said their names here I did ask them for help sending this fund even the ones I can't remember.if he had a link why can't he give me and I pay for the person service than to avoid al this
There was a time he even wanted to buy iphone for resell and he contact me to help him check the imei of the phone if it's clean so I guess u should know the kind of relationship I keep with him
Na wen he was now repeating it and keep repeating it that I sent him a fraud fund and after telling me to send my address and all and now letter tell me I have to wait till he comes to 9ja that I can pick (na that time I vex and had to tell him he has something on his head and wen he said he will block my mom that I said he was rude)abeg who will hear that and won't be angry
don't worry, just try to sort it out amicably, anger doesn't give birth to a good child, it can destroy a 100yrs relationship in less than a 100 secs. So pls my brother don't be angry and we've all spoken to Mike, you too know how simple he's only people feel he's arrogant and hard but we close to him knows how simple he's to deal with. So pls bikko, just try to sort it out amicably

lordmayor4:


Am referring to the $500 he sent which was termed as scam payment by many people according to you people.
How was he able to get the cash back if it was scam?
and has he shown you the proof of the money he got back or denied the allegations? Why not try to let the sleeping dog lie and let the guy sort his issue amicably rather than trying to root out what is not. The innocent guy has his money at stake pls.

Opeyemi5:
thanks so much much sir
I didn't want to be calling names but the way things is I had to
I wish I could still remember more names of pple I asked, if not that I saw u online here self I would have forgotten to mention you
Thanks so much I appreciate
Ope, sincerely I can understand you but you see sometimes we get so desperate to buy items to an extent of getting our naira exchange from any source due to govt policy that is so killing . Unfortunately you got yours from a very bad guys. Only that Mike restricted himself from saying some things here for security purposes but believe me, it would have been worse.
he will refund the 100k back to you I can assure you that. But pls and pls, always try to study who you are dealing with and try to work things out amicably before it blows out. I was the first person e told about the money you asked him to pick up and I told him just to be careful but he said you're one of his trusted clients until when he confirmed the money as not just fake but scam, I know you're unaware of it which he too knows but it was your response to him that actually got things bad. See sometimes you have to be a mumu to say, if not for the sake of your pride, but for the sake of your investment and business.
He will refund your 100k and you can personally resolve other issue related to your business with him.
best of luck.

mavinc4u:
Okay, this is my findings

- opeyemi sent paypal payment to mikky's paypal but the money was later refunded back by mikky with a reason that opeyemi sent fraudulent money to him. However, mikky I want to make it clear base on my paypal experience that the money which opeyemi sent to your paypal was never fraudulent instead your paypal account is what have issues probably because of incomplete details you have with paypal hence you have limit of fund you can receive, that money was in your account but it was not available for you to withdraw since you have account issues. What you should have done to release the money was to add tracking number though sometimes paypal would want the tracking to show delivered before releasing the money to you. If the payment was fraudulent then your account would have been suspended with some request of information you have to provide.

- on the case of money gram. I also do not believe that someone in Nigeria will send fraudulent money to US; the way we know yahoo fund is from other countries to Nigeria.
In sending money gram every individual is entitled to 1 slot in 3months and whereby you have used your slot or your slot is still very far before it gets to you, you can take someone's slot base on your negotiations with the person. Probably you expected the sender to be opeyemi's name but since he used someone's slot then it can't be his name rather it would be the other person's name so the money gram they sent was also not a fraud because the sender will provide his I'd card and some other vital information which will make it difficult to be fraud.

This is your regular customer and even people here said if you could have problem with opeyemi then you can have problem with anybody which I believe is not good for your business. I want to believe that the reason you picked up the phone for him without collecting money first was because of trust you have for him been your regular customer. To be honest, if he carried you along with any transaction then there is nothing wrong with what the guy did at all. Try and sort this issue out with him, give him his phone and if he is still owing then he should balance you. This issue does not require all these noise. Mikky, please try and also appreciate your customers because it is not easy for one to patronize another if you doubt me then reverse the case and see how it looks like. A snake seen by one person is a python but one seen by many is actually the real snake. Pride begets a fall. That is all I have to say.

Haba opeyemi, you self sabi share yam. You contributed the first money to the ministry and it didn't grow then you went ahead with second and third. Abeg share that yam reach my side grin

CC dragnet
did you hear from Mike before you made all this your conclusion. Yoruba has a saying "an elder that listen to one side of a story to give verdict is a wicked and useless elder".
I don't know how you got yourself into this, but you got it all wrong. You'll soon reverse all this your verdict, let Mikky drop his own side.
Investment / Re: How The Founder Of MMM Nigeria Mavrodi Was Found And Arrested For Fraud by tim26will: 9:21pm On Sep 16, 2016
jaybros:
Well, the media has painted different versions of the stories. It's glaring that the financial institutions feel challenged by His methods which are actually working. The banks will save your money and give you say 10% profit after a year (will they try up to 10%?), but still loqn out same money with interest rates as high as 20%,
But Sergei Mavrodi felt lets borrow ourselves this mney without the banks Interference and then gain the benefits. MMM is a revolution, its changing the world. I am benefiting from it. As an intern with meagre stipend, I hardly have finance issues because the MMM community has always been helping me as I have also been helping other members of the community. And I started with my spare money. That's all MMM advices, use your spare money and help a fellow human solve his needs.
MMM was also sincere to say "No guarantee"..... Because it's a community of people who want to help each other. I'm benefiting well from this, holla to know more and possibly join.

Why did they come to Nigeria alone. Read this. It's a matter of time.

MMM was established in 1989 by Sergei Mavrodi,[2] his brother Vyacheslav Mavrodi, and Olga Melnikova. The name of the company was taken from the first letters of the three founders' surnames.

Initially, the company imported computers and office equipment. In January 1992, tax police accused MMM of tax evasion, leading to the collapse of MMM-bank, and causing the company to have difficulty obtaining financing to support its operations. Faced with difficulties in funding its foreign trade, the company switched to the financial sector. It offered American stocks to Russian investors, but met with little success. Later, MMM-Invest was created for the purpose of collecting vouchers during privatisation. This effort was similarly unsuccessful.[citation needed]

MMM created its successful Ponzi scheme in 1994. The company started attracting money from private investors, promising annual returns of up to one thousand percent. It is unclear whether a Ponzi scheme was Mavrodi's initial intention, inasmuch as such extravagant returns might have been possible during the Russian hyperinflation in such commerce as import-export.[citation needed]

MMM grew rapidly. In February 1994, the company reported dividends of 1,000%, and started an aggressive TV ad campaign. Since the shares were not quoted on any stock exchange and the company itself determined the share price, it maintained a steady price growth of thousands of percent annually, leading the public to believe its shares were a safe and profitable investment.[citation needed]

An important factor in the scheme's success was word of mouth, but most of the company's success came from its extremely aggressive ad campaign, which appealed to the general public by using "ordinary" characters that viewers could identify with. The most famous of them, a "folk hero" of early 1994, was Lyonya Golubkov. Another notable marketing effort was a giveaway of free Metro trips to all Moscow citizens on a particular day. MMM also was one of the first well-known companies in Russia with a logotype and slogans ("Flying from shadow to the light" and others).[citation needed]

At its peak the company was taking in more than 100 billion rubles (about 50 million USD) each day from the sale of its shares to the public. Thus, the cashflow turnover at the MMM central office in Moscow was so high that it could not be estimated. The management started to count money in roomfuls (1 roomful of money, 2 roomfuls of money, etc.).[citation needed]

Regular publication in the media of the rising MMM share price led President Boris Yeltsin to issue a decree in June 1994 prohibiting financial institutions from publicising their expected income.[citation needed]

The success of MMM in attracting investors led to the creation of other similar companies, including Tibet, Chara, Khoper-Invest, Selenga, Telemarket, and Germes. All of these companies were characterised by aggressive television advertising and extremely high promised rates of return. One company promised annual returns of 30,000%.[citation needed]

On July 22, 1994, the police closed the offices of MMM for tax evasion. For a few days the company attempted to continue the scheme, but soon ceased operations. At that point, Invest-Consulting, one of the company's subsidiaries, owed more than 50 billion rubles in taxes (USD 26 million), and MMM itself owed between 100 billion and 3 trillion rubles to the investors (from USD 50 million to USD 1.5 billion). In the aftermath at least 50 investors, having lost all of their money, committed suicide.[citation needed]

Several organisations of "deceived investors" made efforts to recover their lost investments, but Sergei Mavrodi manipulated their indignation and directed it at the government. In August 1994 Mavrodi was arrested for tax evasion. However, he was soon elected to the Russian State Duma, with the support of the "deceived investors". He argued that the government, not MMM, was responsible for people losing their money, and promised to initiate a pay-back program. The amount ultimately paid back was minuscule compared to the amount owed.[citation needed]

In October 1995, the Duma cancelled Mavrodi's right to immunity as a deputy. In 1996, he tried to run for Russia's presidency, but most of the signatures he received were rejected. MMM declared bankruptcy on September 22, 1997.[citation needed]

While it was believed that Sergei Mavrodi left Russia and moved to the United States, it is possible that he stayed in Moscow, using his money to change apartments regularly and employ a group of former special agents. With the help of a distant relative he started Stock Generation Ltd., another pyramid scheme based around trading non-existent companies' stocks in a form of the "stock exchange game" on the company's site, stockgeneration.com. Despite a bold-letter warning on the main page that the site was not a real stock exchange, between 20,000 and 275,000 people, according to various estimates, fell for the promised 200% returns and lost their money. According to U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, losses of victims were at least USD 5.5 million.[citation needed]

Mavrodi was found and arrested in 2003. While in custody, Mavrodi was given until January 31, 2006 to read the documents in his fraud case against him (The criminal case consisted of 650 volumes, each 250-270 pages long).[citation needed] At the end of April 2007, Mavrodi was convicted of fraud, and given a sentence of four and a half years. Since he had already spent over four years in custody, he was released less than a month later, on May 22, 2007.[citation needed] He later went on to creating yet another pyramid scheme called MMM-2011.

The MMM scandal led to increased regulation of the Russian stock market, but the legacy of the fraud led many to become extremely suspicious of any joint stock companies.

In 2015 MMM began operating in South Africa with the same business model as MMM-2011, claiming a "30% per month" return through a "social financial network".[3] The group was identified as a possible pyramid scheme by the National Consumer Commission and accounts of clients were later frozen by Capitec Bank.[4] In response to mounting criticism and official investigations by state authorities in 2016 supporters of the South African MMM scheme staged a protest march in Johannesburg.[5]

In 2016, MMM launched a website targeting the Nigerian audience.[6]

In January 2016 the Chinese government banned MMM on the grounds that it is a pyramid scheme, (Ponzi scheme), and it is not registered in the country (and as a fraudulent scheme cannot be registered).[7]

Thanks aeromon. i never depended on free shipping, i just asked. The exchange rate flunctuation does not come in play here except for shipping charges because item has already long been bought and some even delivered before the rate changed or whatever. the items were bought and paid for on the 11th he sent wutapp message on the 17th, i dont think its fair on anybody to do fresh calculations based on the new rate for items that has already been bought a week back with another rate. i dont have a problem paying but it has to be done right.
If I may ask, did you pay at the point of purchase?

don't get me wrong, the phones can be unlocked by Sprint and it will work flawlessly,buying a phone probably with a bad esn and trying to unlock through Sprint is difficult as there's no back doors except mods.this process has become difficult with the newer Samsung and android phones in general from Sprint ,just last week 2 HTC one m8 from Sprint relocked after marshmallow update.I had to downgrade to unlock the. Again
Why are you bothering yourself, if a man has not lost anything, he won't know how to keep the ones he has, by the way, how will they learn if not by experience and not example. If you buy a replacement sprint phone, what do you expect, a clean esn? Probably they need to come down to Ikeja and see many bad esn spring samsung note 5 and 6 edge plus that are now waking radio or music player. Nobody is proving to know all but on this thread we try to encourage and advise ourselves to be careful of what you're buying, Oyinbo no be mumu. And it's not all that glitters on CL is gold ooooo.

Thanks
You see how foolish and ignorant you are, did the picture I commented on yours. You know how many great deals people had bought on CL that are more market value than the no workable sprint you will end up using to hear music only in Nigeria. Better mind the way you just jump into conclusion "Mr make everybody sabi me". Rubbish!!!

Computers / Re: What Are The Major Specs To Check In A Laptop When Getting One? by tim26will: 3:51pm On May 24, 2016
emyyd:
With regard the processor, once you've decided to go for Intel, there are so many options. Diff classes of processors - from the Pentium series, to the M series, to the i series.

Best you go for the i series. Three options here - i3, i5 and i7. The higher the number, the more powerful. But it doesn't end there! There are currently 6 generations of these chips. The latest are called "Skylake" 6th gen. Go for something from the 3rd gen upwards. A 6th gen i3 is better than a 2nd gen i5.

Be very careful about this. Look out for the processor code name eg i5-5200u. Do a Google search of the name to learn more about it.

Core i5 is the best option for me cos the performance diff to i7 is not much. Gives you better battery life, and is cheaper than i7.

Whoops. No be small thing
Sir I'm sorry to say but your research is completely an amateur kind of research. One of the best in terms of strength and ruggedness is 2nd generation intel processor. From 4th generation upward are economically designed to increase their profitability. 1-3rd generation are removable processor which gives it more advantage than the later generation which are built onboard. Onboard processor are not strong nor rugged and it's vulnerable to heat up since it's sharing same panel and chips with the VGA.
That is why brand new 2nd and 3rd generation intel laptop is always more expensive than the later compare to age.
Try more on your research. I love your write up though
