A : → Could any one of you share more idea?
A : → A lot of liar in this country. I encounter many case – always saying want to do business with you, but you need to pay some fee, etc. or even ask for samples, saying that money is on the way to transfer to you, they even have false bank website. be careful.
A : → It appears another "advance fee fraud" in Nigeria, soliciting business partners to pay certain fees in advance, such as processing fees, registration fees etc. The Central Bank of Nigeria and the Nigerian Government are aware of these malpractices and warn traders/victims to be very cautious about the offers and report the solicitation to local law enforcing agencies or the Interpol. Please refer to the circular letter on advance fee fraud issued by the Nigerian Consulate in Hong Kong.
A : → Thank you for your information. It proves useful to us. Does any other have other idea? Please advice.
A : → i am nigerian and based in nigeria. if i may answer this post; it is an advanced fee fraud. Though Nigerians are known for this, not all Nigerians are that crazy so my advice is that u exercise sound judgment when choosing a business partner or going into any deal. Stay safe.
A : → Hi DennyCan you send me an email please? I have a friend in Nigeria who can find it out for you.Regards
A : → I have recently had a Nigerian customer ask me to issue PI without even asking for quotation. Now he is requesting that we accept cheque payment which will be issued by a bank in USA by his client. So i asked for details regarding the client name & bank name but he said he didn’t have this information. He still insists that we issue PI to him & then he will prepare payment. We suggested that he can send us TT but he said there is law in Nigeria preventing from money laundering so max TT amount can only be US$ 4,999. So i have already explained to him our terms of business & if he can accept then only we will do business. Otherwise just waste of time. Be careful!
A : → Unfortunately most of offers (buying or selling) from Nigeria and Ghana is scam and/or fraud.
A : → Please, I would want to advise that although that there are fraud in Nigeria, it is not everyone living in Nigeria do practice fraud. There are so many good and reliable businessmen and companies. I am a dealer is telecommunication business and I think to engage with a good and reliable businessman from Hong Kong to display my reliability, however most people from Hong Kong should be careful dealing with Nigerians to avoid being duped.
A : → It is true that there are many liars in this country, and most of the traps are quite professional, such as misleading bank website, L/C, etc. However, this country started to export oil in recent years and they have some cash to buy necessary products. The market is there.

A : → Sounds like the usual scam. Beware.
