CAUTION: BUSINESS TRANSACTION CAUTION
Please this is a true story which happened just few
days ago. My friend advertised for sale of a car and put the price at
N2,700,000.00 . A prospective customer called and was given
direction on how to get to where the car was parked. He observed
the car and informed my friend that he was heading to the bank to
make payment and that she should assemble the document ready for
collection as soon as payment is made. Shortly after that alert came
to my friend's phone and few minutes after the alert the customer
came and all the paper plus the car was handed over to him and he
left. To my friends greatest shock, she went to the bank and could
not find any money and the bank said that the alert did not come
from them. My friend is planning to go to court with her bank. The
advice is that alert is no longer a confirmation of payment. Please
let's all be careful when doing transactions especially this season n
now in this technology crazy generation.
