Dr Dinesh Kumar.K. Jani PH.D | | i am NOt against any nation/nationality or counry people but slowly and gradually few spammers are placing their messages through Ryze -various network
yesterday a large number of naigerians and west africans were caught at mumbai-a news article-on Tv nedia
there is an acute need for our moderators and also for our readrers to be very alert specially when some details of corporate nature are asked by the people
it requires great care
i had posted a message on our message board but within ten or eleventh minutes deleted it
well-i may sound funny but precaution is beeter
some one approaches for joint venture and asking to invest the finance and later-on writes something which is very alarming
this note is placed without any prejuidice to any one of this group but my alert alarm is for each one of us
be careful please
furst read the profile-of the person who placed the topic on the message board
then analyse and answer very cautiously
this is a friendly guidance and request to be careful
after all this FREE platform is seen misused
pl take best care

Rob Gordon | | I did not delete your post. In general, I only delete obvious spam or multiple posts on the same or similar topics. Nor is is possible for this particular moderator to "be very alert". I can't do anyone's due diligence here. I've seen some post recently where members are asking for "investments" and then won't even say what industry - and I think they are ridiculous, but anyone here can post a reply expressing that opinion.
I personally like Nigeria - and Nigerians - I lived there for almost two years, but many scams do originate there (though certainly not exclusively). I have a friend in Scandinavia who recently got taken by one of these which really surprised me as I thought he would know better. By now, everyone should know how a 419 advanced fee fraud works. A small amount of money is needed to get a much larger amount of money - but the small amount of money is all they ever wanted.
If you are doing international business, it is worth taking a few minutes and familiarizing yourself with the various kinds of fraud out there. The Craigslist warning is a great place to start as they have seen it all: http://www.craigslist.org/about/scams

i agree with you
also do understand your point
even i shall be attending a delegation visiting nigeria in january 2010 - sponsored by F I C C I-federation of indian chambers of commerce & industries to be headed by central minister of India
i do understand the situation of a moderator and agree with yr views
yes-best suggestion is given by you-each one shall hv to take care and precaution
temptation is very dangerous
people who writes that they have few millions of USD for investments and such offerers are from the country where even for 100 usd some one can kill the other one...!!!not as a written rule but this is a bitter fact
even with half a million US dollars when any one can get US green card with family and one million can bring much more stable life then why they should approach to unknown people...hunting on Internet...!!!
thanks again for your very frank and generous views
best regards

Binoy Bobin | | A very appreciable views....
Yes we must be careful when you invest your money especially, ....be careful for whom you are investing and more important than that from whom you are asking for investment, both will burn your fingers.
.....I'm not a Nigerian anyway but I know Nigerians, a very few, a selected few of them...I know English men also
I had received an email a few weeks back offering Loan against some documentation with an initial fee which comes around Indian Rs50lakhs(usd 1.06m). Would there be any need to take a Loan by simply giving away such a lump sum money to strangers whom we don't even know and that too by meeting them in the country where they have secret settlements to trap people in their tricks and to steal from individuals a huge amount as fee amount or to deliberately capture people and steal all that they have at gun point? No not at all that is not way to get Loan at all.
I don't want to accept any advice online either, they will also be looking for a chance to cheat. When we ask something and when we did not start discussing it, we should give time to understand each other about their ingenuity, otherwise don't speak, that is like immature kind of way.
....beware the crooks have networks across the world waiting for some good man to fall in their trap.....

femi fadairo | | Hello Rob,
Thanks for the dose of fresh air in the Nigerian bashing atmosphere.
Yes, a tiny minority of my country men are guilty of this condemnable crime, it should not be the measure for all Nigerians, there are many hardworking Nigerians with legitimate sources of income.

Binoy Bobin | | Yes, Femi, you are right, this is somebody's research and fresh findings only to harm people of high profile. Let us not bother these comments. Private Reply to Binoy Bobin | | |
