I'm not surprised that a lady first made the comment on the topic. in every ten of their thoughts, 8 is sex related. Yet they would always act holier than thou.

You are a pervert.
You can't reason outside of sex even on neutral topics but you are busy projecting yourself unto others.

yes right he used to be a role model oo but after all his trending downfall i'm sure all of these aspiring fraudsters eyes will clear and know that it doesn't always end well

For real sometimes i don't blame our naija guys getting clients from US getting money and sending them. i blame those Anericans themselves cuz i see them as gullible and greedy beings

Imagine someone asking for your bank details lying to you to help you receive some money and you will get a cut not questioning the source of the money that will be entering their account

You think too highly of Nigerians.
Thousands of Nigerians lose their money to Nigeria fraudster every year.
Even our banks lose billions but don't do full disclosure.
Nigerians are as gullible as any other nationalities.
The reason most fraudsters look outward is because of ROI, it is better
getting $50,000 from some white old man than wiping a million Naira
from a Nigerian account. But the fraudsters are gradually looking inward for
their fraudulent scheme.

Also, the majority of big-dollar fraud is done via impersonation of business or individuals.
Those who promise someone a cut are stealing crumbs compare to impersonators.

Those Americans themselves are foolish

They are making illiterate guys than can not even speak english well or communicate well or even operate computer well feel like they are better than educated ones just because they displayed their own foolishness and gullibility!

i still stand with my smart naija brothers anyway, Bleep white greedy and bastard motherfuckers

Of course, you would.
Proceeds of fraud can be quite seducing.
I hope you also stand by the "smart" naija politicians who promise and fail the greedy Nigerian voters
every four years.
BTW, fraudsters are actually dumber than the average.
That is why they can't survive without fraud.

LOL nairaland sha any small thing poverty, broke boy haba this lyric nor dey tire una to use.

The kind of poverty that will make you die to covet a peanut paid into your account is out of this world.
It must be that kind that turns some starving people to cannibals.
I empathize with you.
Your life is not fair.

kalufelix:
How much are we talking about here.... Pay excess money enter my account and be waiting for integrity...integrity bawo... Because she is a woman... She even used the mofo as her next of kin... I need to marry that babe. Hypocrites everywhere!

You guys will be a good match.
Imagine regularly fleecing your wife of money while
she lies and exaggerates to extort you back.
It will be a match made in heaven.

Wetabix:
I swear too many hypocrites in this country everyone acting like a saint.. If everyone is this good online then who is committing the crimes offline. Bunch of pretenders.

And you wonder why you are in poverty?
Hustling fraudsters hardly progress because they are penny wise pound foolish.

Saintinoo:
Those banks are also robbing us, they hardly return the illegal charges on our account.
If you think you can have an angel as a wife, then try and watch your own life and see if you have no fault.

Pro-fraudster.
What is the difference between you and Shekau, Armed robber, and kidnappers?
After all, you also have faults.
SMH

A nation where fraud is seen as "smartness" has a long way to go.
That wedding should be permanently canceled.

How a person treats a stranger or their property is the best guess of their real behavior.
People can pretend when in close company but not with strangers.

A lack of integrity usually reflects on every part of a person's behavior including fidelity.

1x2x3:
It takes a smart person to pull that off and it takes only a genius to be smart enough to cover tracks.

Actually, it doesn't.
You will stop overhyping fraudsters when you could get a behind the scenes view of what they do.
A Nigerian fraudster is either a romance scammer, receiver of stolen wealth, or a fake email sender
all of which have been done to death. Not much thinking required because there will always be
gullible folks out there.
Of course, there are thieves who create sophisticated schemes and tools for their trade but those ones
are never identified.

In case you don't know, what he did was a bank heist and like every other bank heist either online or physical masked hitting

No. He never did bank heist.
He was mainly a mule coordinator, helping the other fraudsters receive their stolen wealth
through third parties. The fact that he was caught shows his ineptness and ignorance of risks.

.....there will always be a trace to get caught, just a matter of time. Kudos to FBI for their intelligence.

Really smart criminals are never caught because they don't tie their activities to themselves.
Hush is the fall guy and not a mastermind.

GloShare:
Maybe terrorists, not people involved in financial fraud, except they trace the funds to the names.

Petty drug dealers, muggers, assault suspect, domestic abuses.
Just name the crime.
The differences between their justice system and ours are the absence of bribery, physical
torture and the fact that the court don't want to be seen in a bad light which make them pander to the mob
justice sometimes.

bigpicture001:
The US justice system does not physically abuse people into confessions.... Hush puppy cannot name very big people unless he is beaten mercilessly whi h is highly unlikely....

So don't mind hanty kemi.... It's a big fat lie!

Though I believe Kemi is unreliable.
That's right.
But they threaten and psychologically torture suspects.

Igbochief001:
People would say I'm tribalistic but I don't care the truth is the truth ...
When Nigeria left ziks capitalist idea before the war and adopted awolowo socialist idea that's when we stop growing

The truth is that Zik had no idea(socialist or capitalist) or never promoted it.
Before independence, most companies were owned privately by the colonialist
At no time was Nigeria a truly capitalist or socialist country at least not until Buhari
started sharing money. We have had subsidized tertiary education and health for long
but we aren't unique in that aspect.

Education is not meant to be free at all , only the rich or intelligent should go to school ...

Education is meant for all that can afford it or get someone(including the government) to pay for them.
In fact, a society that abandons early education is headed for doom.
It isn't an accident that every country has some form of free education.

look at the leaders of the north in those days that really went to school ...u would wonder were the hausa accent came from

Socialist run Nigeria ...awo and hello philosophy is what we are doing today ...

We have some socialist programs but the real problem is that the populace thinks
government should be responsible for everything apparently due to decades of politicians
promising to solve all problems.

Allow free trade ,allow free import , develop your self see the area u have comparative advantage focus there and import the rest

This is good advice.

Balogunodua:
Trash

Denmark
Finland
North korea
Sweden
Ireland etc are far more developed than Nigeria and they are all socialist, so stop disturbing us about Zik capitalist rubbish talk.

I don't agree with the guy you quoted but your rebuttal is also wrong.
First, Nigeria is far richer than North Korea.
Buildings and Nuclear weapons aren't the measurements of development.

Second, you can't compare countries with a tiny and dying population who have a long history
of acquiring wealth with a large and growing one. Any poor country with significant that promotes socialism will remain poor for life.
Of course, everyone will be equal in poverty.
And those basking on natural resources will pay dearly in the future as technology render their demand obsolete.

Foolish girl laying foundation for a life of poverty.
No skills, no education.

Lethal234:
To begin with Africans were never Capitalists,

Totally wrong.
No society was capitalist until about 200 years ago and neither were they socialist.
Feudalism was the order of the day.

a society that believe in Family Value and Moral upbringing would naturally find it hard to transition into Individuality and Capitalism.

This is funny because the people with these traits are the most capitalistic portion of the American
populace. The socialist think morality is a burden and don't give a sht about family.

Some time ago I was listening to a presenter on the Radio complaining about our loosing of Cultural Values like language, mode of dressing, greetings etc and I thought to myself, it's still a long shot before Nigerians get it right.

This is also irrelevant

The thing is our Africa Value make us hesitate and doubt every of our Actions.

For Africa to move forward, we need to come together and decide what History we are going to Preserve, Present, and Live by, just like the Chinese did.

It doesn't really and I think it is wrong to talk about Africa as a whole.
We are very different people with different behaviors and values
and living on the same continent can't change that fact. So, it is better
to limit discussion to smaller entities we have some control over.

The Chinese never erase any of their histories, in fact, they sacrificed millions of lives
to preserve it. The mistake you and others make is to conflate disparate issues.
There is no connection between the mode of dressing and entrepreneurship mindset for example.

Moreover, we aren't actively preserving most of our history beyond sentimental issues and fear
inducing superstitions.

The Chinese didn't have to lose themselves to progress, they just adopted what works in other places.
They opened up their country and adopted a proper capitalist market. We can do the same thing too
without condemning everything we have.

Also, we don't need the whole populace to fall in line, we just need a few percent to lead the way.

MrBrownJay1:
educate yourself on the issue of medical care in the west, instead of writing irrelevant rubbish... the majority of these foreign hospital's bills are paid by the gov... not directly by the people.

The above shows that we cannot have a fruitful conversation.
If you can't get basic facts right, then you clearly are not equipped for such.

I don't think anyone has a "normal" relationship in Hollywood.
It is all about star power and money.

MrBrownJay1:
sadly, Africans have better things to focus on, like THEIR NEXT MEAL or FINDING A JOB etc than to build hospitals...

You miss the point. There are people also looking for their next meal in every country.
It is not even an excuse as the majority of human existence was spent in subsistence living
until the industrial revolution.

Where did Elon Musk get the initial money to start his companies?
It is definitely not from those living on welfare.
There are Nigerians with serious wealth lying dormant in various bank accounts.
The highest investment they make is buying safe treasury bills.
Generally, we lack the risky entrepreneurial mindset necessary to expand our economy.

while the Dangotes etc dont give a damn about the poor or building hospitals because they want to enjoy their newfound wealth.

Again, this isn't about charity or doing good, it is about a profit mindset.
We are afraid of doing anything that involves the risk of failure when failure
is a natural part of capitalism. Hence, waiting for government to do everything.

Most of those American hospitals were built for-profit and not some pity party for the poor.
The best hospitals in the US are privately-owned.
Many were started during a period of rampart poverty.
The same goes for most businesses. Aside NGO's , no one starts a business to "help the poor".

building a hospital in Africa is different than building a hospital in the west. dont get it twisted!

[/quote]It is not different really.
Do African people hate profit?
We have a few standard hospitals in Lagos and Abuja built for profit.
They are very pricey and weren't built to help the poor.

The fact that some countries have emerged from endemic poverty in modern times
already prove that the issue is not that some people are looking for their next meal.
In fact, millions were starving in China, few decades ago.

We are like someone in a pit who needs to get out.
But they keep giving excuses that if only they can find a log to build a ladder.
The truth is we will never find a ladder unless we get out first!

We need to develop a proper capital market for investment.

@PortHardcore, You are 100% right.
I have brought this issue up in some relevant threads and I got attacked for it.
People were blaming "our leaders" and corruption rather than face the real issue.

An average Nigerian is entrepreneurship illiterate.
Our business education involves selling imported or locally-sourced goods in rented shops.
The kind of business that has little to no-risk.

But no country ever prosper without risky enterprises backed with solid capital

oppsbel:
Let's see the outcome. The United States just need Hush and Wberry to tightening there system. You think US are stupid like Nigerians government that will prosecute fraudsters

Is this what your fraudster mentor told you?
You have been deceived.
You are actually safer being a fraudster in Nigeria than the US.
Several prosecutors and investigators will use those idiots to get multiple promotions.

don't be surprised if Hushpuppi and Mr Woodberry worked with the US Artificial Intelligence(AI).

This will only happen in your dreams.
You show your utter lack of technology understanding by talking about US AI when that is
a meaningless concept.
It is even more appalling that you think a fake email sender and a mule can help the US in any way.
Well, they could if they can genetically engineer humans.

Hush and Wberry will help them with a lot of things and they need someone like them in there country to make sure there database is secure. The whites are more intelligent than African countries and shameless Nigerian will be criticizing Hush and Wberry. Your government are looting you every fucking days and you keep quite criticizing the rich Hush and Wberry. Wise up

Stop fantasizing.
Those two guys are going to regret ever leaving Nigeria.
The kind of psychological torture they will be subjected to will be so extreme
that they won't remain the same by the time they are released.

Unfortunately for them, they can't play the racism card as there are bigger issues
the US is currently facing.

Tobidarker02:
Oh!!
You think every family would not want to set up their kids
Smh for you
Your mentality is weird

Excuses!
Well, not everyone is built for entreprenurship.
Capital is never the problem, just an excuse to make you feel good.
If you can't solve your capital problem, there is no guarantee that
you can run a successful business.

These people can never let the oil sell at its true price.
They can't give up their proceeds of fraud through subsidy.

kponkedenge:
They have ripped Nigeria off through their monthly subscription for years.... So they should shut their mouths about 'profits'.

They are businesses they exist to make profit.
Unless, they force you to subscribe at gunpoint, rip off doesn't
even come close to it. Moreover, Nigerians pay one of the lowest cable susbcription
in Africa.

Is Buhari trying to bribe theguardian newspaper?

kponkedenge:
They want to complain about revenue drop? Well they should drop the English League then they will know the real meaning of revenue drop.

They are not complaining about revenue but profit.

martineverest:
Amazon and Netflix should grab this opportunity and end DStv monopoly

Amazon and Netflix are bad for our economy because they don't pay tax to the government.
Moreover, they are not a direct competitor to DSTV
as the cost of data is huge.

donmarshia:
Based on the article multi choice Nigeria is not making money in Nigeria.

Multi choice as a group pays for rights to broadcast to Nigeria differently and then pays for the rest of Africa differently too. Now, they do not not recoup the expenditure on rights from its Nigerian business. They believe they would fare better if they just pay to broadcast to the rest of Africa and forget Nigeria.

Unfortunately no other Nigerian company has the capacity to take up this business model and still be profitable. STAR TIMES no reach.

If dem decide pull out, e don bee for football lovers.

Nigerians keep complaining without even understanding any thing about business.

It is a shame really.
Business knowledge is almost zero for an average Nigerian.
Some people are even calling on National assembly to force a price reduction bill on Multichoice
when they are hemorrhaging money due to Nigeria's unstable forex market.

I suppose they will drop the sports channels if the loss becomes unsustainable.

cucumbae:
What I mean is that they charge Nigerians higher than other African countries.

This is wrong.
Nigeria is charged less.

Omihanifa:
All nah just plenty talk MultiChoice can't dump EPL and champions league

When they know that that's what is still keeping them in business

That EPL and champions league right just be like their pot of gold the number of adverts alone sef don do them to make profit


If not for their greediness how can they be complaining again when they are operating in a monopoly

They are not operating in a free market.
A monopoly is actually useless when you are not free to set your price
due to political pressure.

If they are operating at a loss as alleged.
It is better to scrap EPL and Champions league.
Business is about profit and not just revenue.

Nbote:
If dem born dem well make dem try am and see if Nigerians wont dump their thieving asses.. Those football rights are d major reason most Nigerians renew their subscriptions

They aren't.
DSTV Sports channels are far behind many other entertainment channels in Nigeria.

itsme01:
The point to establish is simple "consent" ... The lady is an adult and no court of law would buy the baseless allegation that the guy force fed her alcohol against her wish, drove her from bar to his house also against her wish, and then gain consent from her... It would take a Professor of Law with SAN to push the lady's irresponsibility solely on the guy's shoulder since she isn't a minor or mentally retarded


.

This is a rape case and it means they are not really equal before the law
at least not the way judges handle them in the UK and many western countries
though UK has a fairer system.

His saving grace is that her subsequent behavior does not match that
of a rape victim.

Case in point is Harvey Weinstein who was convicted for "raping" some US actresses
even though he never forced any of them. Technically, he could only be guilty of exchanging fame for sex
which isn't a crime in the first place but the mob already convicted him before the court.

There are many ways a person can be convicted apart from rape but the facts seem to be in the doctor's favor.

Good one from MTN.
