@Zamosings: “You should probably start by using your real picture as your dp, your bio too could use a little professional touch if you’re really going to be meeting people for jobs online. It’s a wild place here and everyone is paranoid, ish.”
@SmileEtSmile11: “Shey u no see say na scam🤦🏻♂️, the person just save you the stress.”
@abazwhyllzz: “Broooo,like I dey face am almost everyday. Foreign accounts will dm for gigs. Once I tell them I’m from Nigeria they’ll never reply again. Meanwhile my Ghanaian friends are doing this same job. It’s so sad and annoying tbh💔 I pray it gets better someday.”
@_pauliegee: “same here something similar. missed about two opportunities cos they ain’t available in my region or my region (Nigeria) is tagged with fraudulent cases.”
@KayceeKiligan: “Alot going through my mind, is it the h8t on black or PTSD from past experiences doing her.”
