“Reminds me of my friend, last year he got scammed for over 15k. He wanted to buy an Audi A3 on Facebook. Only found about it when he wanted me to lend him 4k because the scammers wanted more. When I told him shit that he got scammed he then ghosted me. Mara, I had to laugh at him 1st.”

@Onaxiie said:

“Why would you send money to someone without a proper and thorough investigation? Why not say I’d rather deposit a portion of it and send the rest when I come to collect the car.”
