Title: Can I trust you?
In the heart of bustling Lagos, Nigeria, two childhood friends, Kemi and Tunde, found themselves navigating the world of online commerce. With promises of quality goods at unbeatable prices, they eagerly explored the digital marketplace.
One fateful day, Tunde stumbled upon a website offering authentic Nigerian artworks, a perfect gift for Kemi's upcoming birthday. Entranced by the vibrant paintings and intricate sculptures, he quickly made a purchase, confident in the site's legitimacy.
Days turned into weeks, yet the cherished package failed to arrive. Concerned, Tunde reached out to the website's customer service, only to be met with silence. Anxiety gnawed at him as he confided in Kemi, revealing the disappointment of a gift gone astray.
Together, they delved into the depths of the internet, uncovering a trail of deceit and manipulation. The website, a mere facade, was a front for a sophisticated online fraud operation. Their hearts sank as they realized the extent of the deception.
Feelings of betrayal mingled with anger as they confronted the harsh reality of their situation. The cherished gift transformed into a symbol of shattered trust, a stark reminder of the dangers lurking in the digital realm.
Despite the setback, Kemi and Tunde emerged stronger, their bond fortified by adversity. Together, they resolved to raise awareness about online fraud, ensuring that others wouldn't fall victim to the same fate.
As they stood amidst the chaos of the digital world, their friendship remained an unwavering beacon of support, guiding them through the darkest of times. For in the face of adversity, true friendship prevails.
**********************************************
This is what I have to say.
Don't pay...
Let me capitalise it.
DON'T PAY!
This online space is for the tough-minded especiallywhenit comes to buyingand selling.
If you are not smart enough...walahi, na cry you go dey cry everytime.
Don't pay them until you have done these two things.
Do you want to purchase something online from a total stranger without having a video call with them?
Do not it!
I mean, DON'T DO IT.
Most times, it does not go down well.
You will get Sc@mm£d of your hard earned money.
When you request for a live video call and they bluntly refuse, with whatever reason, I want you to know that, it is a glaring red flag...
When you request for the video of the materials you ordered for,physically with them,they refused,infact, take to your heels...
This is because they will lose absolutely nothing if they do as you requested.
While you,on the other hand, will lose you Tinubulated money if you fail to do your homework well.
I am tired of seeing people lament about issues like this.
A genuine seller would not hesitate to initiate these moves to prove their authenticity and genuity.
Anyways,THEM SAY PERSON WEY E CHI NO KILL,NO BODY FIT KILL AM.
As we are being careful, may our Chi help us too.
How is your Sunday going?
Kam biakwa!
