Today i received a message from a foreing number. Here is the content of the message;
'"My name is Lily Bella!!
Thank you for your reply. Our company cooperates with [AliExpress-ShopVerse] who are willing to pay to increase the attention of their products, so our company needs to recruit a lot of co-operative employees to like their products on the mall and earn 100k-200k Naira every day.
Are you interested to know more?"
It did not took me much time i have to delete the message immediately. No one is a baby anymore although there are still people who will fall for this type of scam.
Of course there are plenty people that will fall for these things. That you are exposed to these scammers strategies doesn't mean that many people outside there are exposed to it. About three weeks ago, I saved a bike Man that carried me from emptying his account to send to one scammer who was impersonating Untouchable Comedy. Many of us should be aware who Untouchable Comedy is if you are familiar with social media in this Naija. He met one fake untouchable who promised to give him #500k to add to his business. But he will need to send anything from his heart to an account number provided to him to help one struggling woman.
This Man was willing to do this, luckily he told me when I was on his bike. He was very happy, until I told him it was a scam. At first he doubted me, then I asked him to bring where he is chatting the so called untouchable. He did and I texted the person and said Alaye rest, immediately scammer responded and started quarreling and calling me names. The next thing he blocked the man. That was how I was able to save this Man from being scammed.
