I just got a customised and from 'MasterCard', saying that due to system upgrade my ATM card has been deactivated. and I should call 08147351334.

At first I wanted to ignore, but I felt I should just sacrifice #50 from my airtime and waste their time a little, so I called the number and it went as follows:

Me: good day, I just got an SMS about my ATM card deactivation and I was directed to call this line

Scammer: oh, we're so sorry about that sir, what is your name pls

Me: Mr. Okafor (fake of course)

Scammer: ok Mr. Okafor, are you calling on behlfbof someone or is this your account you're calling about

Me: its mine Sir

Scammer: ok, can you please call "the long number" on the front of the card

Me: long number?

Scammer: yes its long and it covers the front of the ATM card

Me: do you mean the 16 digit number on the card?

Scammer: yes sir

Me: 5238 5384 7385 8473 1799

Scammer: ok (pauses and pretends to be looking up on a computer), we're working on it, what bank pls?

Me: stanbicibtc sir

Scammer: what's the expiry date written just beneath the numbers you just gave me

Me: 05/18

Scammer: ok(pretends to be working again), can you pls turn the back of the ATM card and tell me what digits are written on it, it should be three digits

Me: 716

Scammer: when u collected the ATM card from the bank, they gave u a pin to activate it with, can u tell us that pin?

Me: I wasn't given any pin, I was just asked to insert the card in the pos machine and chose a new pin

Scammer: sir, give us the current pin on the card then, we have to verify if you're the real owner of this account, after then you'll receive an SMS containing an activation code to reopen your card

Me: its 9999

Scammer: can u pls tell us the current balance on your account as at now

Me: 3.2 million naira Sir

Scammer: once again, we're sorry for the inconvenience sir, very soon once we confirm your details, you'll receive an activation SMS from the bank

Me: thanks


I know he'll be cursing me by now for raising his hopes, pls folks beware.

Attached is the SMS sent to me

The ride is a little more worth than 300k, its totally clean, only issue is cracked windscreen and rear light, up your offer and come for inspection, I can bring it back to Lagos for you immediately after.

Thanks

Potential buyers beware of this advert.

Do proper inspection with your mechanic first before making payment.
Mumu, no one pays online for my cars anyways, proper physical inspection is always done before payment, that's why I feel less obliged to answer stupid questions from idiots like you

I am not interested in your car and i have as much posting rights here as every other member of the forum. So you cant stop me from posting on this thread. If you had been sincere in your earlier response, there would have been no need for my comments here. And yes i have read through your profile, so i will be right to conclude that asides from the few unregistered cars, every other registered volvo car you have sold and is about to sell was gotten from the mechanic workshop (no wonder you always hang around at the mechanic workshop)

Again there is no need to be defensive or to avoid the simple question asked earlier.Answer the question, why is the car parked at a mechanic workshop?
I owe u no explanation bro, you can go kill yourself if you don't like where the car is parked

You have not given a sincere response.
It is either you are a mechanic (that explans why you always hang around in the mechanic workshop or the car being advertised is faulty and parked at the workshop).

If the car is faulty and undergoing repairs at the mechanic workshop, simply say so. Anyone who is really interested will make you an offer after inspection.
Guy park well, if you have a dime to buy a car then call, else f**k off, na for my thread you wan come form CSI

Serious people are calling and coming for inspection while you're behind your keyboard forming detective, a simple look on my profile alone will tell u I sell mainly Volvo cars,so why won't i be around Volvo places

Volvo has never been known to make SUVs Nissan om the other hand has been in the business of SUV manufacture
Bro, this is not an avenue for a Volvo vs Nissan war, the OP asked about Volvo and intends it to stay at that, why is that so hard to understand. Must u force your nissan on him? Firstly, u guys started by saying there are no Volvo parts, now it has turned to who has been in the business of making SUVs,

Argument about Volvo and Nissan can be done at another time and i'm not even sure i'm the right person to be doing that with you cos i cn't claim to know much about your Nissan SUV. But pls stop demarketing other brands just cos of your personal opinion. The OP knows Nissan SUVs exist and yet he opened a thread to enquire on Volvo and even insisted we keep it on the Volvo, why can't you respect that









BTT:
I am looking in the direction of the first generation Volvo XC90 SUV and want practical inputs from Nigerian users in Nigeria.

I have read some about it and have seen reviews, but I am particularly interested in Nigerian users experiences with the vehicle.


Caveat: I will appreciate if this thread is not derailed into canvassing for other car brands. Please keep it on the Volvo. Thank you.

What model year of pathfinder do you own? Most people myself included find the 3.2 to be adequate. It's no pathy 4l v6 but it's close. Gas mileage hovers around 12.5 to 16.6 in the city. Now the 4.4 V8 by Yamaha is the engine you'd want, boy that thing is a force to be reckoned. Won't forget my first drive in a 2010 s80 v8.
kingreign:
I used an infiniti qx4 2001 model truck. Dyamm that truck put epic smiles on my face when on the move. Tons of torque to play with but it was really thirsty for a 3.5 V6.
I believe the OP specifically made it clear he intends his thread to be about Volvo XC90 and not to be derailed into canvassing for other brands. Open a pathfinder thread for this pls.

Its now clear by the ways, why some people(no names called now) were attacking me for pointing out that Volvo parts abound, all cos they want to talk down on the Volvo and start their own campaign for their favorite japanese brands. Next thing now, i'll be called over-critical grin

Your choice of words isn't nice. Everyone is free to comment based on their experience. That doesn't mean you'd call someone out and use him for target practice. If you've got personal issues with the gentle man, why not settle it off you and hime man to man rather than resort to running him down online?

Human beings na wa o!
I have no personal issues with anyone pls, why is it that nigerians hate criticism even when its warranted, so, i should sit and watch him misinform the OP?

No hard feelings for you bro but I think this comment of yours is soooooooo uncalled for. seems like you have some sort of rivalry with Gazzuzz or you have been waiting for an opportunity to call him out.

Authority or not, no one person can know everything and that's not a crime.
i have no rivalry with him and i havent been waiting for any opportunity, he is a well respected figure re on Nairaland car talk section and he should know the type of weight his comments should carry when spoken. If it were someone else who said that, i'll ignore cos even the OP might not take him so serious until the more authoritative figures comment, of which GAZZUZZ is one of them. Now imagine how he has thrown the OP so wide off the mark, preventing him to buy his dream ride on account of maybe one bad experience he must have had looking for parts.

Its better he told the OP what the truth is, which is that he don't know much about sourcing the XC90 parts instead of totally misinforming him that he'll cry about parts. If you love him and want him to improve then you should call him to order when he errs.

I personally have called him for advise on cars(if he'll remember, i called to ask of the risk of buying converted cars from right to left hand drive), and i took the advice he gave me wholeheartedly and abandoned purchase of that vehicle. Now imagine the belief i had in him and it happened that the info he gave me was indeed untrue, how would u feel. And this particular info about Volvo parts is untrue, they abound at isolo.

I don't have a personal beaf with anyone, and i repeat, i only bothered to call him out cos its him, if it were other less authoritative voices here, i would just have ignored. I only need them to serve us better. Thanks

Guy, Volvo parts are readily available and so so affordable, i repeat, readily available and so so affordable at Alhaji Musa. You can ask for Chimezie when you get to the shopping complex at Alhaja Musa street.
Thank you bros, I been fear oo when our almighty GAZZUZZ said what he said about crying for Volvo parts too oo.
