I do recommend to everyone to post all of the scams that you have encountered in this forum. Not only do you warn others of your experience but it also serves as a reminder that there are various ways of scams across all social media platforms. As a general rule, do NOT entertain any messages from stranger or unknown persons who suddenly added you. 9 out of 10 times, they are scammers that will take advantage of anything that can be stolen!

Being well aware of such scam methods certainly helps. Anyone who never heard of this trick might actually fall victim to this scam Luckily, I was knew, thanks to the forum.

Scammers never stop do they?
I've been receiving lots of scam messages and the easiest way to start ignoring them is when they propose deals that are to good to ne true, but then I started having doubts before they even proposed the deal just when they started sending  bunch or copy and paste texts. I can't post all the chart but this is where it gets obvious that I've been charting with a scammer all along.


Well the entire scam is all about some random folks trying to give you a part time job where you could work at your own free hours. They started charting me from WhatsApp, I don't know how they managed to get my contract but they did and there they proposed just the positive part of the job with guarantee that there'll be no deposit, so I played along because this was definitely not the first time I'm experience things like this. After direction me to their financial team on telegram who also happens to be the receptionist they payed for two consecutive tasks so as to make it a bit realistic. But after the 3rd task, the forth task would require me to make a deposit of 12000 naira to get an addiction 6000.  Logically this is contradiction of their terms which is also a big red flag. They went as far as providing a previous payed transaction receipt which is also a scam so as to convince me, but I was already aware of the scam even before they start making their first impression.

The only way you can prevent scams is if you know about them. There are lots of posts and groups that discuss scams you can help yourself by DYOR. Google can give you a list of scams and increase your knowledge if only you can create out time to bit that search button.
