So, I have heard many scammers are from Nigeria.
I am not trying to justify anything or anyone but when look deep in to insight, if Nigeria has the most scammer then the first thing to be looked at is the economy. Nigeria as a country has silently pasted “ your survival is your business” as their motto, no one really cares not even the government.
If you are not rich you cannot start a new business, if you don’t have the best connection you cannot get a good job in a big company. If you are not rich you cannot go the a good average school, if you are not rich you cannot study the course of you choice.. you most go for the best affordable course, if you are not rich you cannot dress properly, if you are not rich you cannot eat properly even chicken is no longer a regular man food cause it is expensive, if you are not rich you cannot think of owning a car or even renting one plus public bus is a topic for another day.
The reality of Nigeria is only the rich can survive.
In a country like this how and why won’t there be scammers even the government are frauds too they are only focused of getting all the money they can to preserve it for their generations. The hardship here is different.
There are no jobs, getting a loan is almost impossible if you don’t have a reliable source of income or any property to mortgage, many are dropout, many are graduates with out job, many did not even smell the coners of school, many cannot afford medical bills , many are starving and everybody wants to survive. So i wouldn’t say they are looking for quick money instead I would say they are all trying to survive.
I wonder what those that like blackmailing our youth and some other sector of our society benefits from it, I know of a truth our leaders has failed in their respective aspects of leadership but crime is general things all over the world, I don't know where you got your statistics or survey to know that Nigeria is the highest scammer, Cyber crime and all sort of crime is all over the world, I may not blame the newbies but just that our people do say that when a purpose of a thing is not know abuse is inevitable. You don't need to criticize your nation, tell the world your problem and what you hard or any body to succeed in this forum all you need is knowledge smartness, understanding, avoiding quick get rich, and emotional investment or trading. As a concerned citizen tabling your nation condemned you more as every nation see you as fraud even when your innocent.
