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.

It is nice that you brought this here for members to see, you know, scammers never relent from their tactics and tricks to get at their victims. The least one could think of is where they would hit from and if not knowledgeable enough about their gimmicks, one would fall for them so you bringing this here is a good thing because I believe some members have no knowledge about this and as they have seen it, they would apply caution whenever such occurs in the future.

Everyday we are seeing different tricks from scammers who are never stopping despite how their tricks has been revealed countless number of times here so I think it is good for us to keep spreading their newest format so that everyone will be on alert to be able to identify scammers when ever they come across to them. Members may be aware of some tricks but scammers are great thinkers once they realize that their tricks are not longer working they will swing into a action and they will develop other new tricks this is the reason why we should keep exposing them and their tricks so that people will learn and not fall victim to them.

Just a week plus now, a scammer with a female profile pic pmed me on Telegram, and we have been talking, and of course, I know where the scammer was heading, so I decided to play along for the time being.  At first, I asked the scammer some questions, which she avoided, which further cleared my doubt about her intentions, so I kept playing along till today, she asked me if I am an investor, and I became more curious to find out what she was up to and I replied with a positive response and she was quick to share a link to a phishing site which my system quickly detected and I told her she was a scammer and she quickly deleted the chat while I blocked her instantly.

This could be a new but old trick they are using now to come in disguise as a lady with a modest picture that could convince their victim to think they are responsible and calm to deal with, but their ulterior motive is to trick you into a relationship kind of conversation, and see how you flow so they can present you a link which you will click to either hack you or deceive you in making payments for their investment plans which is fake and a scam to say. We just ought to be more careful and alert to their tricks and gimmicks so we do not fall for them, as they are everywhere looking for whom they can take advantage of.
