We are well aware about how the government attacked CEX notably Binance last year speaking against them as aiding terrorism and I will continue to remain on my stans that all that happened for them to earn some huge about of fine, thinking they had them in a spot were they had no choice than to pat but rather, they discontinued their service with our fiat naira.
I'm bringing this back, only to bring awareness that neither Cryptocurreny nor bitcoin has being the major aid of fraud and terrorism in Nigeria but rather our naira and other fiat currency used by these fraudsters. This is just a way of the government to shift blame/responsibility, whereas their money laundering are very much done with the naira and other fiat because those things cannot be traced to them easily since they are on paper offline.
One easy proof you can use to back up this when enlightening others about this, was a trending video during the naira note scarcity and there would be more:
A notorious terrorist leader identified as Kachalla Baleri, has been seen in a viral video displaying wads of new Naira notes amid a scarcity.
In an unverified video released on Twitter by @Edrees4P on Wednesday, February 1, the terrorist, who spoke in the Hausa language, claimed that he had up to N10 million of the new naira notes to buy more weapons.
Anyone who can be scammed in cryptocurrency can also be scammed in fiat currencies like Naira. Most times, greed is the reason for every scam. I have been involved in various chats which could possibly lead to scamming me of my coins, but I have always been very careful in the sense that, you have to monitor who you are transacting with. The right thing is, receive your fiat money first and confirm before releasing your asset. Those scammers would always want to compel you to send them your coins before they make their payments.
Also be sure that they sent the right amount before transferring your assets. Someone may send you #2,400 instead of #24,000. If you don't examine it well, you would send the coin before you will realise you have been short paid. Be smart always and suspect every transaction you do with who you don't know.
