As I d hear different stories of how scammers d scam people of Nigeria, I began to d ask questions whether na Nigeria na wia dia eyes and focus dey so. This is so appalling that each passing year, we go d hear different method of how scammers d scam people for our country and go scot-free without tracing them. This scams happening gats to put to a stop and people should learn how d no go d move by return of investment.
Na for this our country you go hear or see different manner of scam strategy wey scammers d display just to lure people to invest with them, which at the end dem go disappear with peoples money. In the long run another scamming format go still come out and we Nigerians go hype and invest on am, forgetting our past experiences of how the scam us.
Wetin I understand from this scam of a thing be sae, once you get big eye for money, there is every possibility sae you go fall in the hands of scammers someday.
As I d so, I am yet to experience any scam stuff for my side cos I am not easily carried away by that their yeye returns of investing this amount and get this amount in soso time. D small money wey I d get the enough for me and I am not ready to risk am for peso hand no matter how the offer d so.

I don't know if I could send so much money outside someone I know for investment and to make matters worst, you sent it twice. This is really unbelievable and your mistake for looking to make quick money.
The lesson here is to reduce our drive to make quick money because if it is too good to be true then you have to be careful. I have not been scammed by investment strategies and I'm not sure if I would send such money except I'm hypnotized.

The honest truth is that when you have adopted gambling as a means of survival, greed is always involved and whatever greed is involved is tantamount to be doomed contrarily.... If you have much risk in gambling, it has the potential to earn goldly if you succeeds but has high level of risk.
Talking about scammed, you can only bypass being scammed if and only you don't believe what you did not work for will cherishly enrich you to a success.
Conclusion, take greed out of you and you would overcome being scammed because the enticements in the scamming system is magnetically magical to the victims.
You can prevent this by a total avoidance of enticements and sugarcoated means to a quick and broad enrichment.

Let's share our most painful scam here for others to learn and to avoid people from from falling into such scam. Below is my most painful scam:
some years ago, someone send me a long message that carry some fake seeds phrase on social media that he is the founder of BTC and he just felt like helping me to grow financially in my country so that I will make BTC more popular in the land, if only I will not expose him as the Satoshi and he has helped many people in one of the developed countries, and if I'm ready he will help but I have a task to pay. But the moment I told him that am from Nigeria and we use our local tools to kill scammers, and immediately he blocked me because he knew that I discovered his strategies, because the real Satoshi will never come out at this time that everything about BTC is going well.well, we will continue talking about scammers until we all know the way they operate in the community.
No matter how we talk or preach about scammer, the public Will always fall victim. Just like nwada001 said that those people be like who get PhD for psychology because Dem dey always know how to enter people. When them know say the update Don cast Dem change format. when MMM come people fall victim. And after MMM many other related scam come out and people also fall victim up till date. Those guys the dey take advantage of the hardship of the economy. Because people dey find possible way out of the hardship of the country naim make them dey fall victim. If you discover there way, what about the domb ones wey no go ever get sense?
And moreover scam of this days dey Cary jaz. Dem go remotely control you ontil you don fall victim before your eyes go clear. The perten dey broad beyond your imagination. Them dey come as follows:
1) house and land agents.
2) Custom agent.
3) fake Visa agents
4) fake prophet
5) fake car dealers
6) fake advert
7) invest 40k and get 80k in 45 munits
8 ) get paid by doing nothing
9) pos hacking
10) fake sport subscription and registration
11) fake business name registration
12 fake navy, air Force army and Police form
13) online recruitment for working in Canada Etc.
there are many of them out there but this are the ones I can figure out for now.
I was once a victim of number (6) fake advert. Phone of 80k was given an offer for 35k discount of about 55%. And I was so happy that the phone I was creaving for is now on my door step. I chatted with the admin he said yes that the phone is ready. Dey made me believe that it was delivery before payment for me to see them as trusted machants. After a week I still chatted. They told me that it's still available but I will have to pay part of the money that people who ordered for phone disappointed Dem, so dey don't want to be wasting tp. So I said ok I bergain price with them 10k which I sent. Dey received the money and later sent me a message that my goods is packed and ready for delivery that I should expect it before some hours later and sent me the number of their agent that is bringing it. after some hours later, the agent called me that he was detained by some cleaning agent. That I should send the remaining one to discharge the case otherwise the money will not be refunded and phone will neither come to me. Hmmmm at this point I knew something was fishy. I call and call at that point I just knew I was scammed. Emagine those fools sending me Bible quotation that will make me finish what I started.. e no easy oooo.
If it promises huge returns, is possibly scam, if you have to invite love one to be under you to earn a percentage, it also scam, don't be too greedy because most of the social media influencers are paid to deceive you into trusting their scam game it all planned work everyone of them including the brand ambassador have his caught in the scam.
So scammer have dealt with us in one way or the other and the coming of cryptocurrency have increased the chances of getting scammed without traces, so for that, we must have to apply every precautionary measure to safeguard oourselves

Scammers and scam projects are too real dis days wei u no fit tell d real one and d fake one. Wit dis research Wei you do and dem still scam you, e dei enough for person to even fear where to put money say dem dey invest. My opinion be say, any company wey come new come dey look for people to invest for dem, make you stay far away from dem, make we always dei look for reputable companies wey don dey d game since instead of falling scams wit d new ones wei dey come with juicy offers to entice dem victims.
Anoda tin wei dei cause dis tin na greed of our own people. Even wen we know say d tin dei too real to be true, we go still say make we try our luck to cash out sharpaly before dem go scam us. But d tin be say, d scammers dei wiser dan u, and if u don put ur moni inside, u go just fall for dere trap. E beta make u know try am sef. Scammers are wiser dan d way we tink dey are.

There is something myself do believe is that whatever that appears to be too real are likely to be scam, since I got this mentality I don't quickly falls into scammer's hand, and again do not be too desperate to make gain or being enticed by their profits I think is this point peoples fails to understand they could easily get trapped alone the line. Try to reduce your anxiety to make wealth or to become rich over night, I think one that causes this is whenever you looking at somethings and said "oh my God" this is a life changing opportunity then just remembered that this is scam falling opportunities at this point you may mind how fast and quickly you wanted to invest that site or platform.
In general term, know that nothing good comes so easily whenever people promised you something first think what could be their benefits for doing such thing or for offering you something at a very cheap rate, then you will remember that there is something phishing around such things, do not allowed greed to engulf you so easily and quickly without having to think twice.

Scammers are all over the world and they keep using different method everyday to scam people. In Nigeria, most people have fall victim in one way or the other. Let's share our most painful scam here for others to learn and to avoid people from from falling into such scam. Below is my most painful scam:
👉👉This happened like 5 years ago, as a sport gambler, I got carried away by a Facebook advert that promise to give a fixed match. After seen some of their fake match winnings, I decided to subscribe. During subscription, I mistakenly made double payment. What made it painful is that I made payment twice to this guy after which I discovered they are scammers.
👉👉I was introduced to crime alert by a friend.
Crime alert is a branch of DHIL company that promise 30% returns on monthly basis on any money you invested with them. After much pressure by my friend, I decided to make some finding about them. I observed this with my findings
💯They are registered company under Nigeria government
💯They have a famous, reliable,humble and honest person as one of their ambassador.
💯They claim to fight crime
💯They do things to support people's security e.g they bought patrol cars for police.
💯They have been paying for years.
All the above points prompt me to later invest in it. These are my prove of investment.
Immediately after I invested, story start changing and it was later discovered to be a scam.
CONCLUSION
Scammer always look around for loop holes that can easily attract people to fall into their traps. They then sit down and take their time to perfect their plans. At this time where inflation is high and no much money in circulation, one needs to be very careful not to fall into their traps.
