A Nigerian woman has taken to social media to expose a conversation she had with a man who posed as a hired assassin in an attempt to scam her. The lady, who goes by the username @Feyisparkles, shared screenshots of the chat, shedding light on the alarming encounter.
In the chat, the man claimed that someone had paid him to eliminate her and inquired about any offenses she might have committed. However, he suddenly changed his tune, stating that he had been observing her for a while and believed her to be innocent, so he wanted to spare her life.
Aware of the scam format, the lady decided to play along and requested the man's account details, under the guise of doubling his payment so he could eliminate the person who allegedly hired him to kill her instead.
Taking swift action, she shared the screenshots of the conversation with a contact saved as DSS, who managed to extract the scammer's details. The lady promptly forwarded this information to the so-called assassin, who, sensing trouble, promptly blocked her on the messaging platform.
Here are the screenshots of the chat:
