Whoa! Organised scam, I've had my share of scam as well, I was 21 years old I went to Lagos, the most busy city in Nigeria where everything happens. I had about 15,000 with me, huge money then still huge now as the minimum wage here in Nigeria is 18,000 Maura which is about 13 sbd. It was a Sunday afternoon I went with my friend to a place known as computer village to get a phone but only few shops were opened, so we were strolling and we saw two guys discussing about a phone and the apparent seller said no as the amount the apparent buyer was pricing wasn't enough, it was a Nokia Symbian phone, immediately we walked pass them the seller just passed us and flashed me the phone, so I stopped him to know how much he was giving it out for, he told me 8,000 and it looked like a sweet deal to me, then I told him 4,000 but he insisted the best he could go for was 8,000 and had said the other guy pricing the phone had offered him 5,000 but he refused it, excited I asked my friend what he thought about the phone he said it was good deal so I offered him 6,000 so he took me to a corner, I gave him the money and he gave me the phone but before I realized he said he doesn't want to sell again that the money is too small and handed over my money but before I could say a word I saw three men crossing over from the other side of the road shouting so na una de buy stolen phones abi, they are referred to as agberos or omonile (touts) scares I quickly put my money in my pocket and boarded a bus with my friend to get of the scene, about to pay the bus conductor I reached for my money only to find papers wrapped with a single bill, I had lost 5,800 what was left was 200 from the 6,000 I gave him 😎 Lagos heart of scam.
