Never. Try not to have anything to do with those countries. You may wish to read up more on the internet concerning 419.
Some 20 years back I received a bogus check for US$20,000 for samples to be sent to them. Fortunately I decided to cash the cheque first prior to despatching the goods from my warehouse.
I still have the check as a warning to myself and my staff.
Don't trust them.

You say that you took a loan. Does that mean that you received some money? If you did, great. I wish them lots of luck in collecting any payments from you !!! But, in all likelihood, they want some up-front fees from you before "giving you the loan". DON'T DO IT.

I hope that you did not provied anybody with your social security number and personal informations.
If yes make sure that you check your credit report and report possible Identyti theft to all three credit agencies.
If you provided them with your bank account numbers call your bank ASAP and freez your accounts. You will have to close your accounts and open new oce with different account numbers.
NEVER GIVE OUR ANY PERSONAL INFORMATIONS BY PHONE unless you call your bank or credit card company. your bank or credit card company will never call you and ask you for personal information. If somebody calls you tell them that you will call them back, and call the company back but make sure that you use phone number provided on your statement or back of your credit card!!!

NO, never do that. One of my co-workers took a loan overseas, and never seen anything back from it (he had to give up 3,000 up front to get it going). Nothing could be done about it either....

NO!!! Very wrong! First, Nigeria has a very volital government. Second, the interest rates (at exchange rate) will be very high.

No. Please!
They are all scams.
do not contact them
even do not reply totheir email.
You can search for the name of the person in internet and soon you will find his name in scam black lists.

I dont know...did the process seem legitimate?
Basic rule of spotting scams; "If it seems to good to be true, then it's most likely a scam!"

I don't trust any of those scammers..... I was scammed, and only for my husband, they would have taken me for $6300.00....Only deal with places you can visit. Don't do it online!
