Nigerian comedian and actor, Bovi Ugboma has taken to his social media page to share an experience he had with a scammer who hacked his old schoolmate's account in order to defraud him.
In the chat, the scammer who sent a message with his schoolmate’s IG account, asked for urgent 30k to sort the medical bills of her ailing son.
In response, the actor told the person to send him a message on WhatsApp to prove that it’s indeed his old schoolmate but the person claimed his/her WhatsApp account had issues.
Bovi then sent a fake credit alert to the scammer as proof of the transfer. However, the scammer who didn’t get the payment because it was obviously fake, got angry and tackled the actor for tricking him.
