Good evening all.I saw Greatdober on various thread advertising his forex training service.I ed him on Whatsapp from the phone number he dropped.He said he is charging 20$ for his mentorship.I told him that was too much.He told me he would add me to his WhatsApp group,if I like what I see I could pay up.i told him I can only pay #5000 as I have had lot of bad experience with online teachers,as after you pay them they turn something else and they never give what they promise.I told him #5000 is what I can afford to lose if it doesn't work out.He added me to the WhatsApp group and I realize most of what he is teaching there I are things I know already as I watch lots of YouTube videos on forex trading.He asked me for the 5k after a few days,I told him that I know these things already,I told him if I must pay him the 5k I had to teach me differently on Whatsapp cos I know those things already and I have past those stages already.He said the money was too small.I told him that's what I can pay.He removed me from the group.I even didn't mind cos I know all what is been taught there already.

After about a week I saw a call from him.He said I should check my WhatsApp he sent me a message.I checked my WhatsApp and he wrote that he has accepted the 5k to teach me privately on whatsapp.He said if I pay him right now the lectures would start immediately but first I need to get a deriv .I was abit skeptical,cos I do not see a reason why a so called successful forex trader would be so desperate about 5k.I later shrug off the feeling,that it's just 5k.I can afford to lose it and probably it might not be what I am thinking.

I transferred the 5k to him.He told me how I would setup my deriv .I setted it up.He said he is doing something now that he would get back to me after he finishes,that was the last I heard of him for that day.The next day,I told him I didn't hear from him anymore but he said immediately I paid him we were starting yesterday.He flared up and said his classes is even 3 times a week.I asked him why didn't you tell me all these and conditions before I paid you.He started his lecture and when he was done,he asked if I have any question.I told him I had no question I have previously learnt those myself before now.

Another day we had a lecture and when he was done.He asked him about 3 different question or so.He said he would get back to me on that.This guy is very lazy in teaching.All through my time with him(maybe 3 weeks max) he always find excuses not to teach the 3 times a week he even promise ,he keeps making excuses upon excuses.Once you call him out for it,he flares up.He deem himself God.Once you ask him a question after his lectures he postponed it.Could you believe questions I asked him 2 weeks ago he has not answered them till this moment.I asked him today ,is that how someone would learn.Is that how you were taught when you were in school.When you ask your lecturer a question on a topic been taught he would postpone it to weeks time.I had to complain everytime before I get the next lecture.His whole tutorship is even making me lose motivation in learning forex.I was doing quite better on my own learning from youtube.

I ed him today that I need a refund that I'm tired of complaining all the time.I can't be begging you all the time to do a job you are paid for.i realize I was not getting was promised.Stealing by deceit.Can you believe this guy has the guts to insult me and said he is not refunding my money.

Fact is that 5k is not my problem and also forex trading is not a do-or-die for me as I have other businesses that I earn good money from.i am just using this medium to warn his other potential victims.Do not pay a dime to him.You would not get what you were promised.
If you a looking for a good forex trader with proven track record to learn from,go to the forex trading alert thread.Not this charlatan.Fake guru.

I also see him gallivanting all over the place looking for funds for people to trade forex for.I would advice you not to give him a dime of your money.I see him soliciting for $20,$30 and $50 and I always wonder why a successful forex trader would be looking for pence and penny to trade for people.You claim to have been trading forex for years,how come you have not build up your over the years and you are still looking for people 5naira and 10naira to trade with.I can tell you why,that's because he keeps blowing up his s and he is looking for more funds to do experiment with,without the inherent consequences,as you can't get your money back since it's all online transaction.If his strategy is so foolproof why doesn't he ask for funds from his close friends and relatives ,so he can help them out of poverty or do you think he just love you so much,he would help you instead of his kin.Better still he could even go to the bank and get a loan,trade with it and make millions.

If he is even asking for a reasonable amount I would understand,$10,$20.This boy is mad.

A word is enough for the wise.

Mr. I want to learn forex in a week
You feel you can post an epistle with your own side of your story and leave mine just to make you look like a saint.

I'm coming to post something much more transparent and let's leave the crowd to judge the whole case

Greatdober:
Mr. I want to learn forex in a week

I'm coming to post something much more transparent and let's leave the crowd to judge the whole case

I am going to ask you a very simple question.In all I posted about what transpired between us above.Can you pin-point where I lied about you.If you can't do that,forever hold you peace and take your L in peace.You have been exposed,you think you can go on scamming people indefinitely without getting bit.

Goodmorning everyone.
So this guy feels he can make a defamatory post just because he can.
Let me show him that you can't just pull up to anyone and make up something.

I made a post about my trading journey because I use nairaland as my online journal.
So I made a post with current screenshots and withdrawal proves to avoid it being called a demo , so this guy messaged me and asked me if I run a class which I told him I do and he asked if I had a group and I said yes I do.
So I told him the price which is 20$ and he said it's too much that I'm even charging in dollars.
I told him that the reason I'm charging this little was to make it a bit affordable and in as much as I'm a good trader, no one can actually know me if I don't do something that would affect people.
So my main aim was to start building a name and I had to start small, even some people that started the class before the op can testify that I didn't even collect full amount from them.
Some didn't remit a dime, it was just promises..
But deep inside me, I know that if I do my work well it would push my status further. The money in charging them is way below what I earn whenever I trade and screenshots I post are all mine, you can check with the notification bar, you'll see it's been the same phone.
I'll post screenshots and tag others to make my prove solid.

So the op said he had 5k, I want looking at money personally I just wanted to build a name and then I can comfortably navigate through doors.
I accepted and he said he doesn't have the money yet and despite that I added him to the telegram group where the theory lectures was going on and op texted me that he already knows all these that that's why he wanted a private class so he could move at his own pace and funny enough this guy doesn't know that much that he thinks he do.
He is one desperate person that was seeing me as an obstacle to him. To him I was preventing him from doing the whole forex thing, something I took years to learn..he wants to take few days to learn.
I rejected the private mentorship offer cause it wasn't worth it and I told him what would happen is that I'll text him when I start teaching practicals so that way I can just be forwarding messages rather than treating 2 different things at once. Fast-forward to when practicals was about to start and I called him just to not have him miss anything and it was on WhatsApp this time around not telegram you can come and see previous texts.
He agreed and sent me 5k and that day I taught him how to setup and when we were done I had a lot for the day which I commenced and when I rounded up for the day, I saw a lot of very harsh texts the op sent to me.
Very harsh texts, to be honest this guy doesn't have manners.
It's either you weren't raised properly or you didn't want to be raised properly before I continue I'll post the screenshot

I'll be tagging my students so they can testify too if I'm a scammer or not.
@Sanda2500
@samlestic

Please follow up this thread, I'll tag the rest when they drop their name

The first rude messages he sent to me just less than 24hts after we created an .
Imagine texting your supposed mentor this way in just less than 24hrs and calling him a snub..
Just to tell you the type of Person he is

And a few others.

This was a red flag, the mistake I made was not refunding him as soon as possible.
I ignored and started teaching.

This guy is always claiming to know everything and he doesn't even know the basics of trading.
I pity you market go show you shege.
Imagine sending him a screen record of how to spot some setups and he gave a very rude reply.
The screenshot is coming soon too

@Op is not a scammer. I don't know him from anywhere, he is trying his best to explain everything he could. It's very easy to type scam when we don't get the value for the money we paid. I understand. You should have been patient with him. I just discovered he had family challenges he's battling with yesterday hence the low rate of lecture delivery. It wasn't like that before. Please, patience is the key.

So now let's move on to the next phase.
Lessons started and in the midst of the whole stuff.
I had an emergency health wise, I ed my group and let them know that I'm aware I'm taking time in the lectures but to not make it look like I just collected their money and now I'm looking for a way to make the 3 months go so quick..

I told them that I'll make sure I hold their hands till they are good traders.
This was me telling them I don't care about the timeframe anymore.

I forwarded him this same message because he insisted on a private class and that was when I got to saw the whole rubbish texts he sent to me.
Calling me a scammer, from the above I would love to see where I scammed you or where I made you send me money and also I post my life withdrawals on my group down to when alert enters my phone..
I even screen record the whole withdrawal process,I even run giveaways based on who invites students to my group.
My monthly data subscription is 60gb, if you break it down it's 10k per 40gb and another 5k 20gb.
Money I spent on fuel is enough to feed you and pay your salary.
So why would I even need your 5k at first?
I would have refunded you if you asked nicely but since you're trying to prove that you're so good and rude..
I'll make sure it's either you sit back and allow me teach or you go to hell

Imagine sending someone a video and photos and not like he is so smart or he knows the whole trading thing.
But he is so eager to skip to the money part and that's why he is unnecessarily rude.

A screenshot of sending him a video I sent to others and he gave a rude reply.

This whole stuff is already dragging me backward in my daily activities so I'll round up and tag necessary people to judge and it would be the last time you would misbehave here

He made this post with his first moniker then deleted it and made it with another moniker and now he is using is second moniker to reply his first one.
Why would you have 2 monikers if you aren't the fraudulent one here.

Greatdober:

so this guy messaged me and asked me if I run a class which I told him I do and he asked if I had a group and I said yes I do.

Where did I ask if you run a class or if you have a telegram group?are you running mad or something?

So yesterday I made a post on my group telling them I would be so active soon because some issues hooked me up health wise and I've been busy.
I forwarded the same texts to him as usual and that was when I saw his rude texts and this time around I had enough and I had to address him properly

Greatdober:
I told him that the reason I'm charging this little was to make it a bit affordable and in as much as I'm a good trader, no one can actually know me if I don't do something that would affect people.

Who did you write all this gibberish you wrote up there to.Mr charity or better still Mr . philanthropist.Daddy you can lie oh

Greatdober:
and op texted me that he already knows all these that that's why he wanted a private class so he could move at his own pace and funny enough this guy doesn't know that much that he thinks he do.

Which of our conversation led you to the delusion that I don't know those or you are just trying to justify your inadequacies.

Greatdober:
He is one desperate person that was seeing me as an obstacle to him. To him I was preventing him from doing the whole forex thing, something I took years to learn..he wants to take few days to learn.

You can say all you want, to try to justify your inadequacies.Be a man of your words and integrity.If you say you would teach trice a week,teach trice a week.Don't be coming up with excuses every now and then.I told you this already.If you are too lazy teach people,then you shouldn't be running a mentorship class.Being broke and blowing up s endlessly wouldn't let you take that decision though.

Greatdober:
I rejected the private mentorship offer cause it wasn't worth it and I told him what would happen is that I'll text him when I start teaching practicals so that way I can just be forwarding messages rather than treating 2 different things at once.

When did we have that discussion that you would text me when you start teaching practicals.You that just remove me abruptly from the group.You sent me two messages the previous day after you started your practicals and I didn't reply.Out of desperation since I wasn't replying your messages you had to call my number the next day so you can get your 5k,make hunger no kill you.Bloody failed trader.

So personally I'm done with this whole issue and I know that whosoever comes across this would see that I did not in a anyway scam you.
You can go on to make noise
Below are some other screenshot
Below this you'll see someone that made a promise that he haven't redeemed but I never disturbed or removed him from the class and I've always carried him along.

You'll also see how transparent and good I am and how simple I relate with my students.
If I'm a bad person, you can't be the only one complaining.

Others are on nairaland, they would have called me out too

Last one

My first rude message?I was been sincere and saying it as it is.I never insulted you.If you say you would start today.Start today.Stop making excuses.You say you were busy and refuse replying my WhatsApp messages,even when I saw you online on Whatsapp for hours.Who wouldn't be furious and you pulled that stunt immediately the money hit your .Do well to post all the insults you threw on me on your voice note.I knew from that moment this person is not a sincere person cos for a fact those your excuses continued up until this very moment.

As far as I never woke up one morning and told you that classes are over or I blocked or I stopped messaging/replying you for a long time.
As long as none of this happened then, any reasonable person reading this would know I'm not scammer

Can you send me a screenshot of when you forward this message to me specifically.Liar!!!And if you had to lie about ill health,ill health shall be your portion in Jesus name.

You can keep up with the delusion if it makes you feel better.

You're actually so stupid and busy to see where o sent you a forwarded message about been hooked up with something crucial.
Let me hit my point.
In as much as I know you need an urgent 5k to round off expenses hence the flare up, you won't get anything from me because I've started rendering my services and I'll continue till I'm done.

No refunds.
You can keep ranting like an educated fool but I don't care.
Bottom line is I didn't scam you and all you said here doesn't make sense and it would not stop me from forwarding lectures to you.
Mr. I can learn trading from YouTube have a nice day

2 monikers?Guy are running mad.If you are talking about the guy I quoted on your thread.I do not know him from Adam.I am guessing he is one of your foes here on nairaland.

You're not smart bro
If he was one of my foes, let him tag me with proves and I'll it to being a scammer.
He should post screenshots of our chats and when he sent me money.
The guy is you.
It was his moniker that tagged me to the first exact write up and then yours.

I am done with you, I have made my point.My aim is achieved already.I think the wise would get the message by now.Learn from my experience and not fall victim themselves.
