Ever had a bad experience with them? or are you currently living the good life because your family member or boo is into 'yahoo' line of Business...?
Please state the level of Yahoo cos there are different types...we hear normal Yahoo which is to obtain by tricks/scam someone's hard earned money or the Yahoo plus which is to go even deeper and use body parts of human beings or animals to seek wealth.
Oh wait!!!......Or is it you reading this now that is into yahoo?Oh dear,please lets talk!!!...Why do you do it?It is scary but out of every ten young men you met,nine and a half are into yahoo yahoo.....
What is your view?My two cents? In those days when yahoo (then called 419) was in vogue,it was so fly to have a boyfriend doing such because we didnt know better but now we know and I would never encourage anyone to have anything to do with anyone who is into this evil practice...If for nothing at all,it has an address with Karma and MUST come back to haunt you or your Children's generation..
What is bad is bad, they say they are doing it for the blacks and African culture because of the slave trade; hell no! You are stealing, scamming and obtaining innocent people by tricks. You are wicked and a thief.
ReplyDeleteHmmnn, a few years ago I met a Nigerian living abroad on social media. We started talking every day, it became a long distance relationship. This guy started talking marriage, I was so young and naive and I had the stupid abroadian urge to leave Nigeria. I didn't know this guy was a scammer until I had sent him my salary a few times and the last one I sent bounced back. I went to GTB to question the transaction and they told me his account abroad was blocked as he was under investigation. I managed to email the customer service of his bank and they told me his account had been reported for several fraudulent transactions. That was when it dawned on me that I was being scammed! By this time I had lost hundreds of thousands of naira. My young heart was broken, I cried and cried, not just because of the money I lost but that my whole FIANCE was a joke. It was a sad eye-opener. No yahoo/scammer/419 person will end well. You can't make an innocent person who trusted you/loved you cry bitter tears and go scot free, it's not possible
DeleteOh, chim o! How can you be in naija and be sending money to someone who is abroad ehn. Which kind bolo you be?
DeleteORIGINAL BOLO. Next thing na to start feminist activism 😂😂
DeleteI will rather date a legitimate married man than date a more wealthier Yahoo boy. Olomaje
Delete21:42 Both are WRONG. Don't try to justify one wrong thing with another.
DeleteMarried man= Scam, waste of time
DeleteYahoo=Scam
I don’t blame them much cos there’s serious hunger in land .
ReplyDeleteMay we not find ourselves in situations that will make us do the unthinkable.
If you do charms to get men, women, hurt people, boost your businesses, you are
a yahoo pluser.
Yes o, all of them follow .Any form of satanic short cuts is yahoo plus
DeleteAnyone that does Yahoo is a greedy person... everyone wants to b rich in Nigeria without working hard
DeleteI hope you didn't vote for Buhari?
DeleteAre there job opportunities to start with?
DeleteYou think a lot of them wanted to go into yahoo?
Circumstances happened.
Blame the government.
Little ones these days do not even want to go to school cos they feel it’s a waste of time.i don’t blame them.
Have you ever been hungry to the extent you couldn’t even get garri to drink?
Imagine your sibling or parent needs to do surgery and there’s no means to raise that money?
First of all, plus 419 o, plus yahoo o, plus yahoo plus o. All of it is bad! There is hunger and there is poverty but that doesn’t justify. Yahoo is addictive and the reason it has blown like this is because of agberos that are doing it. What do you expect? People that glorify normal phone snatching and gold chain grabbing are into yahoo now so...
DeleteI won’t lie, I did yahoo and even yahoo plus and made so much money but yahoo leaves you miserable! People should just stop talking about Karma when it comes to yahoo because it’s religious and many people think once you do charity, karma won’t visit. They should start using the law to scare people into it.
I think we should change the schooling system. That’s where to start from because you can’t be preaching school is useless and then you see the reality of it then someone is showing you a way to make money without needing school and you won’t fall for it.
If only you know how the real yahoo is done. Not the one you just read briefly about. The spamming, the email takeover, dating, cloning, cfo and all, you’d know that anybody can fall. People need therapy to stop it because it is very very addictive. I had to convince myself over and over and over again to stop it. Many people want to stop believe me but it’s just like runs that when a woman is broke and she knows that a chief will give her money just for opening her legs, you know how tempting that can be?
i pray they dupe you or your family member. idiot
DeleteSluttychic are you trying to justify yahoo? I'm confused, babe there's absolutely no justification for yahoo. It is wickedness of the highest order.
DeleteYBNL, so you are saying if you can turn back the hands of the time, you wont get involved in yahoo? Honest question
Delete@Slutty chic God bless you!
DeleteHunger is no justification for fraud. It is so bad they are not only stealing from foreigners but even from Nigerian that are legitimately hustling or are this same Nigerians among those that took their fore father's into slavery.
DeleteSo many young guys especially just want to live above their means,spend money and buy cars and have lots of ladies around them like the young musician does this days. The young musicians are their new role models so they are not ready for any legitimate job.
Anon 16:13 with what I have seen in yahoo, I wouldn’t do it anymore. Documentary on yahoo is just not possible but if it is, many people won’t do it. I have escaped ritualists while I was on the quest to do yahoo plus myself. I have had cultist take me to forest to kill me because they thought I ran away with the money of one of them if not for God’s intervention.
DeleteI have had police (outside naija) raid my house and arrest a friend inside same house with me but they didn’t touch me cus it wasn’t me they came for. I have had politician kidnap me to beat me up because I was dating and spoiling his side chic.
I have had best friends betrayed me and report me to police so that they can share money with the policemen.
I have seen friends go to jail proper proper with all their education wasted because of fraud. I have been scammed myself in the course of fraud but who I report to. I have seen men and women get disowned by their families because of online scammers that they were funding. I have seen business close down because of CFO CEO fraud. I have seen a pregnant woman with a child fall for rental scam kicked out in the winter because she paid a scammer money thinking it was a landlord. I have seen a case that the ‘maga’ shot himself on webcam during the time of yahoo messenger when he found out his love was a scammer. I have seen an old woman lose her retirement benefits because she mistakenly filled out a form online.
I will never do fraud if I could go back in time. Even frauds like tax return and Medicare have a way of affecting real people even though you think it’s the government it affects.
Hmmm YBNL. God indeed is faithful, may he protect you sir
DeleteZeuz
Social media glamourize scamming and celebrate known scammers so it's not a surprise that it's still trendy.
ReplyDeleteMy take? it sucks being broke. lol
Yahoo yahoo is bad. the good thing is they hradly end up well.
ReplyDeletei pray EFCC Catch and kill them all
With the right amount, you can pocket EFCC.
Delete419 is not a capital punishment in naija so no one gets killed for stealing.
DeleteIt should become a capital crime and the penalty needs to become death. That's the only deterrent at this point...
DeleteI agree with you.
DeleteLet me sit here and read comment
ReplyDeletei WILL NEVER support anyone doing this - you dont realise the damage this has done to our image as Nigerians, amongst fellow africans, talk more of the developed world
ReplyDeleteI remember as far back as 15 years ago, i walked into my local branch of Santander to open a UK bank account and as soon as they saw my passport, they said they do NOT open accounts for Nigerians as Nigeria/Nigerian is considered a high fraud risk.....thankfully, a different bank opened accounts for me that period.....Since then, this Yahoo thing has gone from bad to worse.
Yahoo practitioners and their supporters and empathisers need to stop....theres no excuse for crime....let me take you down memory lane
Few years back, the then Governor of Anambra thought the state was unsafe, the people also agreed and eventually Issakaba boys were brought in to "cleanse" the land, after the "cleanse", the blood thirsty IB turned their attention on the indigenes who bore the wrought until IB were sent packing.
Same thing happened with OPC in the west and till date, the west cant rid off OPC completely - More recently, Boko Haram: the north provided a safe haven and environement for Boko Haram, they thrived and were shielded by the North - now the same BH has become a menace to the North and its indigenes (after killing/driving away non indigenes)
Same thing happened with ISIS in syria and Iraq ---the sympathisers and enablers who argue that Yahoo boys are "taking back" what foreigners stole from Africa, sorry for una - eventually, the chickens would come home to roost, your monies would be stolen - your life savings, your children would be used as sacrifices to "empower their jazz" so that they can continue to decieve the "oyinbos"
Please stop and seek alternatives - look at China and India, they are gradually moving from a developing country status to a certified developed country status without doing Yahoo - the unemployment percentage is even higher in India, yes they have crime rates there as well but they equally work hard.
U have said it all dear...we keep enabling them and one day na our head dem go use.
DeleteThere's this guy that since I was in JSS1 had always said he would marry me. Fast forward to 2014 he left for Malaysia, he kept calling me, asking for acct details, promising he would still marry me, I told him NO. I don't want anything to do with the kind of life he's leading. I blocked his number both calls and on Whatsapp, he tried all means to reach me but no way. Any time a number calls and it's him I will block sharply.
Guy man came back this March and even went to my mum's house....ikwakwakwakwakw. He saw wedding pictures including my baby's. He got a Nigerian number and called me, saying he wants to just come visit us, I told him to give whatever he planned giving to us to the beggars on the street as I would receive it as a blessing from God.
I have not seen his call for sometime, though I still suspect he might wake up one morning to start calling me again( ama keep blocking all blockables).
Our Igbo adage says, Iju ekwensu iju oru ya niile.
Chai, "Iju ekwensu iju oru ya niile"
Delete@Mhiz A ị justu kpofe mụ with this your adage.
Sadly the problem with most of us is that we say we don't support or will we do Yahoo but we're still seen frolicking and eating the money of family and friends who are involved in this trendy evil.
I think of my generation when these Yahoo boys become fathers and have their own children, what sort of moral standards are they going to pass to their children?
How do you build a future based off false foundation ?
Sylvia I pray its not late already because the chicken is already home to roast its own. Last year I know of a sister who lost about 400k to them, this last February a young boy was rob of 5k with disguise of calling from their banks. I don't want to accuse any bank but FCMB have been more exposed to this fraud and they can't do anything to get the money back.
DeleteYahoo/419 is the same thing. All they do is scam people of their hard earned money. And they're not only scamming whites they're also scamming innocent hard working Nigerians. If not that most youths of nowadays have sold their souls to the devil, this should never be a topic for national discussion. I'm so ashamed of the useless celebrities supporting the Yahoo boys,like seriously what has come over Nigerian youths? This is very despicable and highly appalling. I can't deal mehn. I Wonder how we want the intl community to look us after seeing all out dirty linen on social media. Anybody supporting yahoo or into it or benefiting from it will never make heaven. And their suffering will start from this world.
ReplyDeleteI'm out.
Thank you o,Princess. I have been pinching myself to know if l had been dreaming. I still cannot get over the fact that people are justifying fraud and crime! .The colonialists' angle beats me hollow. How do you explain those who call from 'abroad' and ask you to 'guess' who is calling so that they can impersonate the person and defraud you, a fellow Nigerian?
DeleteA lot of retirement packages and loans have gone to these guys. Many innocent foreigners have committed suicide or are about to do that.What is going on ?
The people defending this criminal act should be tracked and monitored; they are persons of interest. It is either they are engaging in it,benefiting from it or undergoing apprenticeship. I have spoken!
It's patectic seeing people support their fraudulent act,I don't think there is hope for Nigeria again, when even the young ones and youths don't see anything wrong in an evil practice
ReplyDeletei dont care what kinda yahoo one does. whether na juju or you use tricks to scam people of their hard earned money you deserve to go to hell.
ReplyDeleteYahoo is bad, no story. You they claim they are paying them back for taking us into slavery, i laugh. You scam a white man to buy things made by the same white man; your brain is on low battery
ReplyDeleteI don't support it and can never agree with the reasons most of the give for scamming people of their hard earned money.
ReplyDeleteI know Nigeria is somehow tough for some but stealing by tricks is not the way out, how about doing something legal, no matter how small, you'll be fine with time.
Some people will support them until they fall victim by losing their money or a loved one.
ReplyDeleteI'ld rather have little from honest means with peace of mind than get it dubiously without joy and expose my unborn generations to curses from God and man.
Tomorrow now their descendants will keep moving from pillar to post seeking for spiritual help. Some will end up compounding the problem through satanic means.
Even those who sincerely wait on God to resolve issues for them would have suffered so much before help comes.
Whatsoever you sow will be reaped. if not now, maybe much later.

STELLA THERE IS YAHOO PLUS(INVOLVES FETISH THINGS) JUST LIKE RUNS PLUS
ReplyDeleteIt's wrong. Whatever the name given to it
ReplyDeleteStella u too like gist. ok ... in uni i had this yahoo boy that i was very close to and i used to hook him up with fair girls(his spec). so he chats with des pple all night and almost all day.
ReplyDeleteall i do for him is to show my face on web cam and say hi , laugh, giggle, and dance. then it moved from me doing private web cam sessions (adult minds will understand this) and the next day me and my paddy man are on our way to zenith bank for our western union money withdrawal. i never lacked in school like my mates. Even after school. they still used to send money. i was invited to visit one of them but i was denied visa.
i am now a born again christian. i can never do such again . GoD HAS FORGIVEN ME AND MADE ME WHOLE
this generation of adults are digging a hole for themselves. in my time 419 boys like ade;fred;etc were the boys. 90% of them are dead. we know how far. please tell these children there is nothing in 419. it is like a phase it will pass . lass lass na them go loss
ReplyDeleteFred Ajudua is a good example for them to learn from. It never end well. I had an uncle who was into this. He ammassed properties everywhere, tried to rape 13 year old me. Last last, he went blind, lost everything and died miserably. On his deathbed, I was dragged to go and forgive him.

DeleteAbout ten years or more ago,I was in a Church one day when the "pastor"
ReplyDelete(well known pentecostal preacher) came to the pulpit, the first thing he
said was "who parked that lexus suv outside?"
The man stood up.
"come and shake me" 😲😲😲😲😲
The man stood up and came forward and people were clapping
A lot of mature people in the church did not find it funny.
After service, all the single chicks were smiling sheepishly and
going to greet him.
It did not start today.
It is powered by the preachers, the parents, the public office holders,
the politicians etc.
That man may have come to that church to seek solution to his "ritual woes" etc.
He wasn't previously known in that church.
How many Nigerian girl will date a graduate who is working hard and earning an honest
living?
How many parents, even here, will not encourage their kids to bring back a "very rich in law"?
Not minding how he made the riches.
A friend of mine told me her 12 year old daughter was on a school bus coming home
on valentine's day.
A notorious but popular boy in her school from a very rich an well known home
who have tried his best to woe her but failed came and gave her a bouquet
filled with dollars.
Her daughter rejected it and the boy was shocked, he couldn't believe it.
I personally went and congratulated the girl, it is rare.
I know this family and we have family fellowship together (not any church denomination). As
a matter of fact, we do not attend any church anymore; just meet with like minded families to
study the scriptures and have fellowship. This is the end times folks, people are lovers of
wealth and pleasure.
True. A time will come when it will be safer to worship God with like minded peopl, for the sake of your sanity and children's morality. God help us
DeleteWhen you are blaming young boys for doing Yahoo. Please remember to blame some parents. Gone are the days when parents question the source of their unemployed child wealth.
ReplyDeleteI did yahoo bk then made about $12million a stop ever since these children started drawing attentions to the cool business, now I own two big hotels in lag now
ReplyDelete12M ONE TIME?
DeleteI don’t know if it’s true or not but before you can make $12m in yahoo, you must have mad experience. You can’t just ditch that experience because of hotel. Hotel business is something people go to school for! You can’t just wake up and start doing it because you have money. You will run down and go back to yahoo.
DeletePeople believe doing business with yahoo money is the holy grail. Don’t worry! Wait for 3-5 years and you’d know $12m is not money. Income won’t match expenditure and you’d understand what school means then.
Stop fraud
Any day, those your two stolen hotels will go up in flames and no innocent life will be lost
DeletePeople will be saying "oh this good guy's hotel"?
Anon 13:54 you really a thief. The same way you defraud people to the tune of 12million, you will be defrauded also. You won't make heads way in that hotel business. Your generation unborn will suffer except you go back and do restitution.

ReplyDeleteYahoo is bad, so also are; looting by our politicians, maltreatment of citizens by police and soldiers, nepotism, passing and signing of life time pension for state house of rep members when your state is seriously underdeveloped, unlawful dues on "virgin passport" by immigration officers, religious heads raping and living lavishly off of their congregation, money laundering by religious heads via their private jets, corruption, greed and bribery at every level of government estabishments e.t.c.. many ills in the society that are being turned a blind eye to. So, why stress on Yahoo? If we are turning blind eyes to the some ills in the society, we should also turn blind eyes to all; Yahoo inclusive. I don't support Yahoo, same way I don't support other wrongs happening in the society. My take is; we all should not focus on Yahoo only, while condoning other wrongs in the society!!!

Hmmmmmm, I wonder why some people are justifying Yahoo, does that mean that we have no conscience any more. What happens to the saying that the fruit of your labour shall not go in vain. Why justify a crime that is against our Creator and humanity, or do we think that we would not be called to account for our sins. All I want to say is that no matter how difficult life is, you have no right to take from another, are you better than hawkers, wheel barrow pushers,shoemakers, conductors, bricklayer, artisan and the list goes on. The day of reckoning is close by, you think you are wiser today, it's your tomorrow that matters, you shall surely be paid with your own coins.
ReplyDeleteStella, Yahoo has eaten so deep into Nigeria's moral level as a society. Everybody in Nigeria is on this TABLE, directly or indirectly. Anyone in Nigeria can take a huge amount to the bank without being questioned, live a fancy life with no tangible livelihood but when you raise an highbrow. Oh you are hating. In America or any civilized country not all money can be taken to the bank. The bankers, private businesses, NGOs, Giveaway specialists etc. are all on this TABLE. It is a cycle in Nigeria, but having the right people in authority will reduce it all. Yahoo is just a fraction of all the illegal activities going on in Nigeria. The only reason it is always talked about is because majority of those involved are young people.
ReplyDeleteMay God Save Nigeria..
Best comment .It's too deep. I give up
DeleteI've seen people target old men/women doing petty businesses.
DeleteSome will put a call across to you claiming to be a representative of your bank and request for their BVN. Next minute, debit alerts on ones poor savings.
Yahoo has come "home". Now we are paying for not starting this discussions early enough.
Honestly, we better thrash this now or it will consume us! This was how kidnapping started with expatriates. What do we have now? Nothing justifies scamming another person of his hard earned money. NOTHING! Its a pity, this is a generation that did not meet the Otokotos, Fred Ajiduas, Joneb, Morris Ibekwe etc. They never end well. I wish our youths will learn... Godliness with contentment is still great gain.
DeleteThere are some conditions we find ourselves in that we don't mind any business or job to put food on the table. When all decent means fails, you are left with no choice. I'm in that stage in life now. Hmmm
ReplyDeleteCondition pushed some of these people to do yahoo.
Our society is sick! I am not surprise that some people will justify this evil deed. Somebody typed up there that it has liberated a lot of family from poverty. How many more of our mothers, daughters and babies will be sacrificed for omo boys to blow? Will it sustain them till the next generation? I know a friend those days in school that his Father was very rich and his elder once were all doing well. Couple of years back the father died and i witnessed how everything disappeared. Now my G is moving from one church, ministry and miracle ground to another to liberate himself from any sins of his father. Another friend used #150k to buy laptop and other stuff for his yahoo work while i used same amount to get a fairly used dispatch bike. He "hammered oo" but later shits started happening but now i have got many bikes and even into a partnership with Jumia. We are all originators and creators but we lack patience and hate working hard. Mind you as a 2.1 graduate of biotech, i have served drink in a bar, i have driven Danfo, i have done insurance marketing without salary.
