Education › 5 Popular Nigerian Scams That Will Fool You by Uptownerd(op):
There are lots of scam formats out there. Some are well known, while there are many unknown ones. But, at the end of the day, the goal is to steal your money or property through you. The main target and chief psychological propeller is greed on behalf of the victims.

Below are the popularly known ones.

1] THE NIGERIAN PRINCE

The list will be incomplete without this famous scam technique. It does come in different variation, But regardless of the style or format it takes, the story is the same and the end game is to scam you of your hard earned money.

It usually follows this format; a person from nowhere befriends you online or physically. After a sizing you up for a while, they will tell you of a story about their sudden large inheritance from a past relative or family member.

They spin the story so well that you are made to believe that you just probably hit a goldmine by friends with them at this critical point in their life. They may be letting you in on how the legal process to claim the inheritance is going, probably even telling you to put them in your prayers so that corrupt relatives or officials don’t hijack the inheritance from them.


After a week, they will probably tell you that the processing is taking too long and that they are almost exhausted financially, stating that it remains for a certain official to sign off. They will even give you a date when they will finally claim their inheritance.

All this may take up to a month or more since ordinarily, if someone is moving too fast with certain things, it may create some red flags. This is just an example of the early psychological works they may take time to work on the potential victim and you will possibly never realize what is being done. In the end though, the main purpose is to prime your mind to believe that they are actually getting an inheritance.

They may even chip in that they will surely visit you or send you something once they get it. But, don’t get carried away. Somewhere along the line, they are always going to stylishly ask you to send them money to solve a sudden hiccup and get their fantasy inheritance.

Education › Russia's Tsar Bomba: This Is Why Countries Shouldn't Build Nuclear Weapons by Uptownerd(op): 7:17pm On Sep 26, 2021
The Tsar Bomba is a super hydrogen bomb built and detonated by the Soviet Union, and reportedly the only one of its kind. The Tsar Bomba [Soviet RDS-220 hydrogen bomb] is rated as the the most powerful nuclear warhead ever built and detonated. It was tested in 1961 to verify an ongoing experiment based on “calculation principles and multi-stage thermonuclear weapon designs” by the Soviet Union.

The Russian federation recently released the video clip of the declassified video clip of the detonation. The bomb is said to be 3000+ times more deadly and bigger than the nuclear bomb detonation that destroyed Hiroshima in Japan.

The test was done as far back as 1961 and was recently declassified by the Russian military. The declassified video clip is currently circulating on the internet space and has got millions of people talking; myself included. Watching that clip brought goose bumps on my skin.


The destructive capacity of Russia’s Tsar Bomba is why countries shouldn’t build nuclear weapons.

Sports › Barca Wonder Kid, A. Fati Makes History In 3 -0 Victory Against Levante (video) by Uptownerd(op): 6:28pm On Sep 26, 2021
Towards the end of the game, the youngster hustled for the ball in Levante’s half, skillfully escaping his marker before driving the ball forward. While Levante players followed, he surged forward with the ball before shooting a low powerful drive into the back of the net in his short solo run to send the Camp Nou into frenzy.

It was an unbelievable moment and probably a sign of greater things to come as the club can at least take a huge positive going forward after weeks of turmoil and managerial crisis. Ansu Fati was also crowned King of the Match.

Sports › Barca's Coach To Be Sacked After Today If... by Uptownerd(op): 1:58pm On Sep 23, 2021
Ronald Koeman faces Herculean Task with a “Must Win” Match Against Cadiz Tonight

The jury is still out on the longevity of Ronald Koeman at the Nou Camp as the club’s manager. The Dutchman has been under fire for unconvincing performances in the last three matches, especially with the loss to Bayern Munich and failure to win Granada at home.

The coach has been criticized for his non-Barca style of play, especially the strategy he deployed during the game with Granada. Earlier on during a press conference, the coach had hinted that he will use direct approach. True to his words, he did apply same, and Barca opted to be crossing the ball into the box from outside. It was really easy to figure out what he was doing because his fellow country man, Luuk De Jong was starring alongside Memphis Depay.

Education › 5 Things Mentally Strong People Do by Uptownerd(op): 2:43pm On Sep 22, 2021
Here are some things mentally strong people do -

1) They welcome Challenges and Embrace Change

Challenges are part of every day life. A person has to learn how to start facing them as soon as they creep up.

Fundamentally, change is constantly in flux, and to keep abreast of it, welcoming challenges is encouraged. This is because difficulties help us discover new perspectives in our views and leave us with lots of lessons to learn.

2) They Don't Waste Energy on Things they Cannot Control


It's not wise concentrating on things you can't influence when you could be focusing on what you can actually control. When you start calculating your spent time in terms of energy exhausted, you soon realize it's waste of scarce resources.

Education › Enki The Annunaki: The Modern Satan? by Uptownerd(op): 10:45am On Sep 21, 2021
Brief History of Enki, the Annunaki

Enki has been a permanent feature in early Sumerian and Mesopotamian culture and religion, dating as far back as 5400 BCE according to some history books.

Looking at excerpts from worldhistory.org, we see that –
“Along with Anu and Enlil, Enki made up an early Mesopotamian triad governing the high heavens, atmosphere, and earth. He is also listed among the earliest seven Sumerian deities in the god’s list which also includes Anu, Enlil, Ninhursag, Utu, Nanna, and Inanna.”

He is often depicted as a bearded man wearing a long robe. But what makes Enki special and grand among his worshippers in ancient times is his alleged mighty powers –
