Okay, please are we discussing here or on telegram chat

Probably this year, the buissnes I heard that will last for ten years, collapsed under 2 years

Hello where are others

Good Evening 

Have been scammed just once I think. Entered my card details in a fake site and in a blink of an eye I  lost 55k just like that. 

Reported to the bank but they couldn't do anything 😢

•1: Yes I have been scammed.

I was on Facebook one faithful day and saw a private message telling me that if am the first to wish a happy birthday to kanu Nwankwo, that there's a prize for me. So I hurriedly sent the happy birthday to the link that was dropped and that was how my journey of scam began.

They chatted me privately and even demanded my phone number, which I sent to them. At first it seemed real that was why I was falling for everything they say. 

Along the line they listed a whole lot of prizes that I've won and asked for how I would love the items to get to me,, I told them they should waybill it naw. They now started giving me charges. From lagos to Abia state was 5k, so I hurriedly sent it to them with happiness that am gonna get gift of 50k. After some days,, I tried the number, and I was told it was not available.....


•2: Well, steemit is not a scam because if it is I don't think I will be preaching to you about steemit. I have joined steemit since 2020 and I have benefited a lot from it. So no scam attached to it.

Funny enough I usually show my alerts from steemit 😂. 
Then take my time and explain what Steemit is all about.

Wow! This is an interesting question.
First of all, thanks for this opportunity to interact with each other.
Good evening.

1. Scam, as God will make it, I've never been scammed before because I dislike the habit of investing 2 naira and get 10 naira within few minutes.
I believe in working hard to earn not just sit and earn.

2. Whenever people react that steemit is scam, I invite them to read about the platform online.
I also do explain that since they are depositing nothing, they have nothing to loose eventually it turns out to be a scam.
Finally for those who know me personally, they know I can't lie because they have seen changes and they know I don't engage myself in quick money

I have been scammed before, it is a long story but i will try to make it,it happed in 1992 when i was doing rice business we were 4 business people that paid for rice my own was 24 bags others,30,20, and 10 bags, when the rice arrived we uploaded them in my packing store,when the driver and his people left, within 10 minutes we  now entered my shop to Carry some bags to the market, we noticed that the rice was reducing up till now am still wondering how it happened, before we know it the the rice disappeared and remain just 8 bags before our very eyes, that day i read 2thimoty 3:1 so it helped me to endure the lost of ₦43,000 then and one of us the one that had the 30 bags fainted with his wife and 2 of them lost their life,the other 2 cried uncontrollable and i joined people to comfort them, that was my first time of experiencing scam.

Hello @focusnow,

I have never been scammed actually,I try I be very careful in my dealings with anyone.

Secondly, when some one says steemit is scam, I really be telling them that, if I can do steemit then it's not a scam. I have benefited a lot from steemit and there is no stopping.

If someone say Steemit nis a scam, I will not argue with him, yes i will not because people have experienced so many online scam business so many will not believe that Steemit is different so the only thing i will do is to encourage him to make research and make decision

I have scammed so many times.And I have decided not to been scammed by any person again.First I was scammed in the year 2016 by one company called sinapis.I was convinced by one of my friends that I should invest #10,000, that I will be paying 10,000 for 6  months and if I introduced anyone that I will earn 10percent of their investment.
I invested #40'000 immediately and brought people that investment huge amounts of money.
After 3weeks they ran away with our money.Even that my friend that introduced me ran away till date I have not her again.

@focusnow

Secondly if someone comes now and tell me steemit is a scam, i won't believe you know why, because they are well organized and can allow you meet them physical that's the most acceptable part of believing isn't a scam, lastly they do pay as promised.
