RE: How I was scammed for the First time ("Find the Lady" scam).

in #scammers7 years ago

Sorry for the experience which I'm sure you learnt a lot from. Experience the say is the best teacher. I also have learnt from the experience of card tricksters. Here I was thinking that it's only in nigeria that we have such card scammers but your story just proved me wrong. The thing is, the dealer is always surrounded by various people most of which, I later learnt, are his accomplices. They would make bets, winning most of the time, and goad innocent naive bystanders who are attracted by the promise of easy money. My experience also cost me all the money I had on me and would have cost me my phone too, but for the reason that the dealer refused to allow me use it as a stake because he was so Bush that he wasn't familiar with touch screen phones at the time lol. It was an experience that would forever remind me to steer clear from such fraudulent gatherings, as I'm sure yours too is.

U knw sometimes its actually good to have parental advice on things like this.. Tho I have beem duped before but not by those card tricksters, and I dnt think they will ever see me. Right before I even became a teenager, my dad had always been telling and warning my siblings and I about several scamming techniques in our country Nigeria.. Thats why as I keep on growing and coming across several things related to what I have heard him say before, I run for my life.. But something about life is; sometimes, you must experience somethings.. And thats why I got duped too.. But I encourage parents to always let their children know about things like this so they be more careful as they grow

I didn't know there were scammers in Nigeria! I thought they were only in London.
