Shipping goods to Nigeria ??? Yes or no ???
 
I do biz with a lot of countries, but I don't feel good about Nigeria, mainly that the payer ( credit card holder ) is not actually the person receiving the goods.... and the phone thing ....
Looks like a scam.

I wouldn't ship anything to Nigeria unless they actually paid me cash in person :2 cents:

don't ship ANYTHING to nigeria....it'll be stolen before it even gets delivered to the actual thief you're sending it to.....Have you ever been to a Nigerian Post Office? I have and it's ridiculously inefficient....

Realpascal 08-16-2005 10:24 AM

Nope.. don't ship it.

Better: don't do business there at all.

Fuck Nigeria !

DONT EVEN THINK ABOUT IT dude ...

They are scammers ... every single one of them.

They will pay you ... you will send the goods ... AND THEN ...

If they pay by credit card the amount will be chargedback (or the CC will be reported stolen)
and if they pay by check then the check (which if is issued by a Nigerian bank will take a looooong time to prosess - very conviniently) will be a fake or stolen in which case u end up screwd again.

Dont do it ...

if you want to read up on Nigerian scams or scammers in general visit www.quatloos.com .. which is a very cool site teaching people about how to avoid scams etc..

Hi,

Sorry, we do not accept credit card payment for shipment to Nigeria. If you still wish to order, please use the shopping cart and at checkout, select Money Order payment. Print your order and send it to us along with your payment in US cash or International Money Order.

Thank you for the interest in our products.

Even that, when I was in the textile business back in the old days in Paris, I had a Nigerian dude buy around $3000 worth of merchandise, he paid cash.
Luckily by the time I deposited the money in the bank and found out it was fake, I still was able to stop the shipment at the French custom :)
