"A guy was going for NYSC, he entered my DM & asked that I raise him with some money to buy stuff to take to camp. I struggled to send him N15K cos he showed all his documents as evidence. Today, he said he got his first alawee & wants to repay me. I sent my acc details."
"He sent the money & I went back to his account details in my DM & sent it back with DASH as the remarks. I was very touched & I hope he will enjoy his NYSC. Good mind."
