10 Reasons Why Men Should Quit Watching Po*n

How You can get back your lost money from a scammer

I went extra miles to discover a way to get my money back from a scammer. Here is what I did that you should do same to get your money back.


Step 1
Contact Your Bank Immediately

Most frauds would mostly always concern the bank. However, if yours did not concern the bank, you should skip this step.

For those whose case concerns the bank, like credit card scam, you always have a chance with your bank. When a fraud occurs, like it did to me, I chatted up my bank immediately via the Twitter handle. Fortunately, they responded in about 3-minute time. I disclosed the incident to the bank and ask how to get my money back from a scammer. The bank wasn’t negative about the incident and did not rain blames on me at all.

What the Bank Does in the Process
First, I complained to them that I made a transaction with a fake online store and I need a reversal. They asked for the account details of the scammer which I provided and they promised to look into case. But how? Here is how they look into the case.

They immediately made contacts with the beneficiary's bank (if it’s a different bank that handles the scammer’s account). The essence of this contact is to alert them of a problem. And if the scammer hasn’t had his hands on the money yet, the bank freezes the account.

Fast Forward
The bank requested for a police report for the process to continue since it deals with a person’s bank account. Now, here is where it’s going to get a bit messy. However, threading with caution and focus will bust the scammer in no time.

Step 2
Contact the Appropriate Agency

Knowing quite well a police report is needed in the fight, don’t hesitate. It should cost just few hours to get one ready. And the police department will certainly consider the situation as critical and look to help. Also, this is a time when you have to submit the scammer details to the police or appropriate agency in your town. I did not wait for them to demand for it because ‘common sense’ made me know so.

Requesting for a Police Report
If you live in an advanced or urban location in Nigeria, you should be able to apply for the report online. My location did not provide such service, and even if they did, it will be slow, that's if they respond. To help myself, I hastened things and did not sit back to do nothing.

I recommend visiting the closest police or appropriate agency in your neighbourhood. If there is provision for online forms, that’s better. Just download and fill the form to reduce the stress when you arrive at the station.

Ask for direction to the building that renders such services. Go there and check their requirements. The station I used needed the form to be filled alongside the scammer bank details. I provided the details and submitted the form. The man on counter asked a few questions and included them in the report. Few minutes later, it was ready.

Note: Some stations might take longer to process the information and get back to you.

Your only hope should be to find yourself at a police department that does not processes complaints in batches. Real-time processing is the best as you do not have to return the next day or week.

Step 3
Submission of Report and Publishing Scammer Details

With the police report in your palms, you’re closer to recovering your money from the scammer. Leave the report at the bank, tell them how cast down you are and leave them to handle the rest. If need be, the bank will contact you either by mail messaging, phone call or SMS.

While waiting, it’s time to strike fear into the scammer’s mind. Visit the top Nigerian forums, websites, social media platforms, etc. and publish their details. At this point, you have killed their personality and they already live with a tainted image. The situation is even rosier if you have their photo(s) to publish alongside and tag as ‘scammer’. Only an ignorant scammer will not realize how much damage you’ve hit their social personality.

Step 4
Use Tracker Software

Tracking a Scammer
The scammer who messed me was fortunate to find his details and photos I published everywhere. He immediately got back to me with threats to take down his photos. You know what I did? I laughed at his life which will soon turn disastrous.

During his waste of time, I used tracker software to monitor his location and get the best possible data. Being that his GPS (Global Positioning System) was off, it was difficult to get an accurate location data. However, the data I could get was enough to aid the agency in charge with their duty.

I highly recommend the use of this software. I used mine on a PC and I’m very sure there are a few for mobile phones. If you’re interested, I can provide you a link to get the software and have that scammer busted.

Step 5
Press On!

Agencies and banks will withdraw once your concern and campaign go off. It can take months but you will win, trust me. It took me hours to figure out how to recover money from a scammer and months to recover. The two months wasn’t bad and I can call that period successful months.

The scammer did not hand over the money in person instead, the bank made refunds and that’s from their wallet. Whatever happened between the scammer versus the bank and the police doesn’t concern me because I have my money back. Moreover, most persons are ignorant of the customer refund policy discharged by banks. This sort of policies allow customers to enjoy certain benefits like recovering lost money to scammers and all of that.

WHAT YOU SHOULD NOT DO
On the course of this fight, these are the things or actions you should avoid to boost your chances.
div>
1. Don’t Engage in Flimsy Conversations
For the short while that the scammer is yet block you, avoid flimsy conversations. Do not message or talk in a manner that high-rises their hope. Enter no negotiation and wave off their powerless threats. State clearly that they are thieves and won’t get away with the deed. While doing this, try using trackers, as I suggested above, to see if you can get positives. Also, do whatever thing is possible within the short time because they will block you very soon. If it’s on Facebook, get every possible data from their ‘About’ and cut communications even before they do so.

2. Avoid Using Threats
Employing the use of threats will not help the situation. In cases where a scammer is caught, they might issue the chats to the police to complicate things. For instance, if the chat contains death threats from you, the police will be forced to question your integrity. And you know, you might end spending big or have a serious case with the scammer. Just avoid threats and be plain with your manner of communication with the scammer.

3. Reveal Nothing to the Scammer
Anger may sometimes manipulate your mind. Even if you’ve involved the army in the fight, keep it away from the scammer. Trust me, the scammer will attempt to use tricky measures to extract information from you. That is, they want to know your steps so as to be careful with how they make movements. If it’s difficult for them, they’ll cut you off and be on the watch with an unstable mind. And if they still into knowing your actions, you’re done for. They will use that details to cover their path throughout the findings.

That's that and within some days, depending on luck, your money should be refunded. The scammer may or may never have things go his way.

There is also a trick you can use to get back your money from Scammers. I will  publish it if only this particular post goes viral.

A Very Victorian Two-Penny Hangover

During the Great Depreciation in London, people who couldn’t afford to sleep in a bad could pay twopence for a spot on a bench with a clothesline tied in front of them, so they could sleep while hanging over a rope . The term ‘hangover’ is universally understood to mean the disproportionate suffering that comes after a night of over-indulgence. But where does the term actually come from? One possible explanation is, somewhat strangely, Victorian England. During the Victorian era the practice of paying for a ‘two-penny hangover’ was incredibly popular among the country’s homeless population and the term ‘two penny hangover’ was so commonly used that it made its way into contemporary literature. A two-penny hangover is not the description of a very cheap night out, nor is it the amount it would cost you to get drunk in Victorian England. It is actually somewhere you could go to sleep if you were one of the thousands of homeless and destitute living in the country’s main cities at the tim...

Everest climber returns to mountain to bury woman he was forced to abandon 9 years ago

Everest climber returns to mountain to bury woman he was forced to abandon 9 years ago In 2007, Ian Woodall, a British climber, returned to Everest to bury the bodies of three climbers he passed on his way to the summit. One of the climbers, a woman named Francys Arsentiev, was still alive when Woodall reached her during his initial ascent. Her first words to him were"don't leave me behind." The grim reality, though, is that Woodall could not have done anything for her without jeopardizing his own life or the lives of his team members. He was forced to leave her to perish alone. Climbing Mount Everest has become much safer over the past decade thanks to advances in technology and climbing gear. Satellite phones allow a climber to stay in contact with base camp to get constant updates on weather systems in the area. A better understanding of exactly what kind and how much gear to take has also caused the death toll to drop dramatically. She was alone on a mountain shelf wh...

The Twisted Saga Of Michael Peterson, Kathleen Peterson, And The Real Story Behind ‘The Staircase’

The Twisted Saga Of Michael Peterson, Kathleen Peterson, And The Real Story Behind ‘The Staircase’ In 2003, Michael Peterson was convicted of killing his wife Kathleen by beating her with a fire poker and throwing her down their back staircase — despite the police never finding the murder weapon nor any evidence of a concrete motive. But investigators soon learned that the Petersons were deep in debt and that Michael was unhappy with the way his work as a writer had stalled while his wife's career as a business executive had soared. And when prosecutors learned that Michael had exchanged emails with a male sex worker, they argued that Kathleen must have discovered the messages and confronted him about it, causing him to fly into a fit of rage, beat her about the back of the head, and leave her to die at the bottom of the stairs. But six years after Michael's conviction, a shocking new analysis showed that Kathleen Peterson had traces of feathers, wood, and cedar needle...

Ira Einhorn was A counterculture Icon of 1960s Philadelphia -- Then He Brutally Murdered His Girlfriend  Ira Einhorn was a celebrated environmental activist and a radical voice in the anti-establishment movements of the 1960s and 1970s. But his messages of peace and love clearly didn't extend to his girlfriend of five years, Holly Maddux. When Maddux broke up with him in 1977, Einhorn threatened to throw her belongings into the street if she didn't come to pick them up. After Maddux went to retrieve her items, she mysteriously vanished. ⁠ ⁠ Then, about 18 months later, Einhorn's downstairs neighbor complained of a foul-smelling liquid dripping from the ceiling. Police soon found Maddux's badly beaten and partially mummified body in a trunk in Einhorn's closet. Not long after the grisly discovery, Einhorn fled to Europe, where he got married, settled down in a converted windmill in France, and evaded capture for 17 years. When he was eventually extradited and finally...

Meet Chester W. Nimitz, The Seasick Admiral Who Defeated The Japanese Navy In World War II

Meet Chester W. Nimitz, The Seasick Admiral Who Defeated The Japanese Navy In World War II "Tell Nimitz ​​to get the hell out to Pearl and stay there till the war is won." When Japan attacked Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, Chester Nimitz was in Washington, D.C., serving as head of the Navy's Bureau of Navigation. But just 10 days later, President Roosevelt fired the former head of the Pacific Fleet for his failure to prevent the attack and promoted Nimitz, sending him to Hawaii in civilian clothes and carrying classified damage reports hidden in his wife's sewing bag to avoid the detection of potential spies. With most of the Pacific Fleet destroyed and no functional battleships, the Navy was vastly outgunned by Japan. But Nimitz quickly consolidated the remaining fleet including aircraft carriers and pivoted to fighting naval battles in the skies while awaiting the construction of new battleships. And within just six months, he'd won two decisive batt...
