According To Naij.com A young female undergraduate in one of the top universities in Nigeria (named withheld) has cried out after she claimed she was stripped off her hard-earned money by a scammer on Facebook.
According to the chats made available, the scammer, Damilare Adeniran, added the young female undergraduate on Facebook and they got talking inbox.
During their discussion, Adeniran who claimed he lives and works in the UK promised to buy his victim an Iphone6, laptop, wristwatches and perfume. Adeniran who also said he’s from Kwara state claimed he has a 17-year-old daughter who stays in Nigeria with her mother (his wife).
Although the young lady could not hide her disbelief, Adeniran said he was helping the lady because he knows times are hard in Nigeria.
He even said he added some foreign currencies in the cash gift and all she needs to do is to pay for courier when the package has arrived. Read their chats below to know what went down afterwards:
The unsuspecting victim got two purported messages from the courier service outlet which go thus:
Courier Exp
“HELLO! This is to notify you that your parcel are currently pending for clearance and delivery in our channel kindly contact the agent in charge of your parcel agent Favour on (+234 7082 0764 05) to submit the tracking code/CNF code to clear your goods. Thank you”
“Hello! Miss ****** **** ****! Your parcel has just been confirmed kindly make the payment of your clearance charges (#7550) to the diplomatic agent account (*** BANK ***** ******* ***********) for your goods to be delivered Today after a confirmed successful payment. Thank you!”
And not long after, Damilare Adeniran contacted her, saying he got a mail that she had been contacted. He also said he kept some money in the parcel which is why he wants her to claim the parcel quickly before the courier company gets to know there is money in the package. Read the rest of the chat below:
It was at this point that Damilare Adeniran blocked his victim and she was unable to send him messages anymore. There and then, she knew she had been scammed of her money. According to her, she borrowed the money from her mates in school and she is sharing her experience so that other people will not fall victim like she did.
Why is that apart from the poster being a female, all other people here commenting who had at some point fallen or almost fallen a victim , are all females? ???Be contented always, guys and ladies alike anyways.

Lol, lol, lol
Lolz,its also happened to me around 2012,the fool told me that he will send #500k to me,I was soooo happy and later one igbotic man called me that someone sent money to me,I was overwhelmed and I shouted a big yes,so said but I have to pay 50k to clear my money.hmmmmmm story change,I told him to deduct the 50k from the 500k,he said no,and I started laughing and asked him if I look like a mumu to him,he hanged up and block my number from calling him,meanwhile the guy that claimed to send me money had already block me from chatting.. Lolz
Very cheap brain she has.
Come on na. The address named a street and said UK. That was enough suspicion na. Like I say, 13, Adeniyi Jones Avenue, Nigeria.
Secondly, he bought the parcel online with his card and sent to her, how did he come in contact with the parcel and paid 100pounds inside? Lives in UK, bought stuff in UK but paid in dollars? Come on na. I pity for her o but scammed don tey na. I was lucky I scammed a scammed of 50k. He wanted 800k and I asked him to complete my 750k so I can make the transfer. The mumu did and I went blank
Sometimes, you should be clever to re-read chats conversation at your free time, you will definitely find something fishy. For the records, no one sends parcel from UK and pays in $Dollars. Payments of goods and services via corrier are done based on “pay on delivery”. I’m really sorry for the lady but at the same time, I’m happy for her the amount is small, the experience will save her a lot in future.
Is a pity only girls falls prey to this nonsense bcos of greed, oshofree and with the aim of using the guy, the reverse is always the case. No lesson to learn for girls they will always fall since gift and money is involved.
These 419 guys can only succeed in swindling greedy people like themselves. How can one fall for this cheap trick,if not for stupidity and greed.
I had d same experience but when it comes to payment for clearance fee I told them I will pay d amount on delivery since they claimed to have an agent in Maiduguri….Payment on delivery to my doorstep…afterward d Facebook account was blocked.
Well, we saw that coming. What have she done to deserve that nice tho?
They almost got my sister but when I intervend n told them we dnt live n Lagos rather we will pay on delivery at our doorstep, they blocked her
