bobandyson Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 In the 90's I met a guy who called himself George Washington. He was trying to get farangs to go work in Brunei selling detergents. When I told him I was in marketing and sales at that time, he clammed up. The name alone rang bells alerting me to a scam. I've read of others having the name Robert Kennedy in the newspapers over the years relating to scams of some sort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont confuse me Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 Nigerians could teach the RTP a thing or two about extortion and scams. No mention of any assets, only that they scammed 11 mil THB and were in a rented room! Maybe the RTP will teach the Nigerians a thing or two about blatant theft?

Aussieroaming Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 Nigerians doing what they do best....international scams. There must be honest Nigerians in the world I guess but I have never personally heard of one. After having worked in a number of African countries and visiting a number of other African countries as well, I can honestly say that it remains the only continent that I have ever been to and worked on that I have no desire to return to. Having said that, some people love the continent and good on them for finding it a more positive place than me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
