My favourite e-mail I received from a scammer was one informing me I had died and left myself millions. I was bloody surprised by that as I only had a couple of hundred quid in the bank at the time. Of course it is possible it was an e-mail from the future and I've done myself out of a fortune.

@@davidjordan697 you're totally wrong. The majority of the wealth of high net worth individuals is in equities. If Tesla goes under, so does Musk. The workers just find another job.
Every person glorifying this scammer need to remember that most scams don't "Steal from the rich!". They usually target vulnerable and/or elderly people, often with dementia or alzhimers who lose everything they worked their entire lives for. What I'm saying is these people are not heroes even if they come from extreme poverty.
I saw a Nigerian scam in action back in the day. Their story was that they were a high ranking employee in the Nigerian oil business. They had supposedly been siphoning away money and needed a foreign company to help launder the money. But, of course, they needed financial help in order to make it happen. My (then) boss fell for it completely, communicated with them and was super excited. I had to talk him out of it. I lost a lot of respect for him that day. If someone offers you a deal that's too good to be true, it's a scam 99.99% of the time. Don't be a sucker.
I've spearheaded bankruptcy proceedings to a former client who gave away € 7 million of investors' money because this gold mine in Tanzania was going to ship the gold to him any day now... He had the money because of an already overpriced and somewhat rotten real estate portfolio that could be developed. But once the money for development stopped, so did any chance of it increasing in value. The bubble popped for a good 28 million in losses plus another 600K fees from advisors such as myself. From his refuge in Dubai (one of the major creditors hired few hitmen) the guy keeps assuring everybody that 'the gold will come soon'. I'm not sure if he's legit that dumb or just calling to rub it in, but I've had to block his number. I lost 60K, would've been 72K without a bit of friendly backoffice intimidation resulting in cash payments from other people's money.
Dang, if he hadn't flaunted his wealth so much he could have lived in luxury for the rest of his life. But I guess the type of person willing to continuously commit fraud is also egotistical enough to need to show off
So many people only want to be successful so they can tell others about it. They would rather drive a 2004 Honda Civic rather than a new Merc if they thought other people valued it more. The funny thing is people like this get scammed pretty much constantly. I think it's an open question if he stole more than he was tricked into overpaying for things.
The scary part is that I knew someone that had met this guy (or had connections to him) most Of Nigerians usually go to Dubai for business opportunities while others tend to have not so good plans. He was knew alot of bigwigs but once they asked what his job was everyone would go 🤷🏿♂️🤷🏿♀️, it was only until he was caught that it spread like wild fire and everyone knew who he was. He also was connected to the police back here and would pay to have rival and/or partner scammers silenced or beaten up.
"No extradition treaty" does not mean that they can't extradite you. It just means the two countries don't have a pre-arranged agreement on extradition. If the country you are in does not want to shield you, even if there is no extradition treaty, then you are out of luck.
Moral of the story: If you become a wealthy criminal, 1. Don't flaunt it, and 2. Use your wealth to go legit (which is how the old mo ey families became old money families)
yep, use that cash to buy a legit business, and when the business is a stand alone money generator, stop the illegal stuff, and the world only knows you as being a 'clean' business person
Old money tends to be either nobility or industrialists. And just because paying your child labourer $ 1 per week for a working week of 60 hours a week is no longer allowed today, doesn't mean the family is criminal because their greatgreatgreatgrandfather did it back when that was still legal.
I once saw a quote along the lines of "Police don't catch criminals because they're smart, they catch them because the criminals can't control their ego". That's part of the reason why Gus Fring in Breaking Bad was so good; he had a multimillion dollar criminal empire yet still took the trash out at the end of the night at the restaurant before driving home in a Volvo.
Even then his ego took him down. If he hadn't felt the need to taunt Don Salamanca on a regular basis he wouldn'y have provided Walter White with a way of knowing where he would be, giving White an opportunity to assasinate him. The reason Fring taunted Salamanca was revenge, but also pure ego since he'd won already. An Achilles heel.
and portrayed so well by an amazing actor. Gus might have been the character I found most intriguing on breaking bad (well.. maybe him and Saul Goodman!).
I've followed this case since his arrest in 2020 and am just fascinated by it. It's really fascinating how they finally caught him, the picture at 11:46 of him flashing the Rollie in the Mickey Mouse Tshirt was what finally nailed him (the watch not the shirt haha). He scammed a Emirati businessman who was trying to setup a school and then had the funds wired to a watch dealer. Then they tracked that watch back to Hushpuppi.
There was nothing noble about what this guy was doing. He did what any other greedy, selfish person would do and just lived in excess, which unfortunately is exactly what every other nobody wishes they could be because that's better than their reality, so he had lots of people drooling over his social media. He got to live it up for a while and now will likely spend much longer paying for it.
Want to know something scary? If you went to Nigeria (e.g. you were scammed to go in there for any reason), you'd be either held ransom for more money, or found dead on the street days later. Those scammers are extremely dangerous.
Wanna know something even scarier (for scammers IN Nigeria) There’s a community initiative over there that brutally executes Nigerian scammers. If you find out their identities and out them to one of these initiatives they will be killed within a few days. Nigerian scammers do it in hopes of fleeing the country before they get outed by a victim. That’s why they’re so obvious in their formatting - they aim for oblivious individuals and actively do it to root out intelligent people, because if one intelligent person outs them, they’re done.
People idolise scammers and thieves, defending it by saying they’re only “scamming the rich”. No they aren’t. It’s the rich we get told about - because these companies aren’t going to fight on behalf of 93 year old Doris from Dorset. One thief is two too many.
What a wonderful world we live in where the word "killed" has to be censored on a platform that doesn't take down 'life hacks' that have been proven to cause serious harm or death to people trying them in real life.
9:26 "and they assumed it was a robbery" It's so weird how often raids are assumed as robberies. They really don't seem to yell "police" anymore. I'm surprised more of these cops aren't accidently fired upon.
tbf you can see in the video that they're wearing black vests with the word POLICE printed on it in giant white lettering. And when teams like this breach a room they go in prepared to be _deliberately_ fired upon, so they're not exactly going to be worried about accidental gunfire lol.
I would not rule out the possibility that robbers have also yelled "police" from time to time... These are con men and it's natural for them to assume they were being conned.
Kira you have defo become my fave youtuber with the documentry style vids, not to mention the more laid back loks at interesting topics! - Keep up the good work. Peace
Agreed, being able to hear the details of these things I've never heard of is really nice. Especially in Kira's style of putting it all together in a cohesive timeline.
The reason he got caught is because he couldn’t give up the game, by that point he shouldn’t have been near any of the daily activities of the yahoo boy’s let alone posting all that wealth or even having it. Dude should’ve been a silent partner by that point
As an American looking into this situation is quite perplexing. On one hand I have my morals where this is absolutely disgusting robbing one man for your own gain, but I also say that with the luxury to have morals and live an okay life. Definitely is a pretty tragic situation all around.
@@komodoah You could say when you live and grow up in poverty and corruption morals become a privilege, either stay in the same hell hole and rot, or elevate yourself at the expense of others. Nobody in the west would condone this but people in the third world have that sort of mentality, they view any body better off than them as rich. The lack of saftey and education also is a big factor in this as well.
@@SmallLegacy You are on the money. I cannot say I grew up as poor as some of the people in question but below a certain threshold morality is a privilege. If being moral does not buy food and you're starving, so it goes. Morality is not real, money is real. Hate what is being done, punish what is being done but it will never stop for as long as they are the only and sole means to an end.
Didn't expect Dubai would actually do anything against hackers, I was under the impression that unless you went after local people/companies or outside companies connected to influential officials you could do basically whatever you wanted.
Was thinking the same thing, Dubai is a known sanctuary for MLM scammer, so did some research. His arrest was due to involvement in a scam in Qatar. This is fairly close to Dubai and I bet some of the government officials work together. Another thing, around $40 million was confiscated and I bet Dubai got to keep that money as a reward for cooperation with the USA.
Dubai doesn't lift a finger. He ran a scam inside one of the other emirates so he broke the cardinal rule of not scamming an Arab while being non-Arab. That's literally the only thing Dubai cares about. There's a guy hiding there who owes me 60K and owes all creditors in excess of 18 million. Not to mention the Netherlands having to pay money to Dubai before they extradited mass murderer Redouan Taghi. "This guy is a drug criminal responsible for 40+ murders" is not something that bothers Dubai.
@@JaimeWarlock I lived in dubai for 11 yrs and I can safely say that dubai officials do care alot about credit card theft and scams for some reason? Even if it isn't rlly relevant. One such example that stands out to me was when this Australian man scammed my dad out of the rent money he owed him and he ended up getting arrested and then deported. Sounded a lil much to me but when it comes to property and money the police fo a decent job at cracking down at them. Then again I rarely saw police cars and now I live in the UK with like a crime happening every day lol
@@zaingamingtv2242 Where were you originally from? How’d you end up in Dubai? I always pictured Dubai as being too expensive to ever live in and I figured the customs there would be so different (as well as language) that it would be hard for me to ever live a normal lifestyle, even though I think it would be interesting
@@HarringtonsApocy Community sports? Oh man, how nice. Now if only he didn't spend hundreds of millions on himself and steal from poor people you may have an argument.
There's a proverb in Romania translating to " the uncaught thief's a fair trader " i dunno if it reffers to poor people stealing out of need or it's some sort of joke to give anyone the excuse, if it can be called " an excuse "
I think it more likely means that everyone is a criminal. Some people break insignificant laws (like using VPNs to watch Netflix) but if want to be rich you have to do more. In other words when you see someone rich you easily assume they broke laws As long as they're not caught we can all pretend they're honest, hard working men
I talked with several Nigerians during the riots and I heard some pretty horrible stuff. One story I heard was that SARS or another group cut the power around a group of protesters then opened fire with heavy machine guns. One person I spoke to sent a video of her friend that got his guts blown out by a cop. Now I don't how much is true but from what I've gathered they're pretty accurate. It was horrible.
The protests were about SARS which was a police division notorious for kidnapping, murder and robbery, that was just the regular armed police killing protestors.
I read an article the other night in a National Geographic from back in 2007. It was about the oil discovery in the Niger Delta, back in the 1950's and 1960's, and how 5 of the largest multi-national oil companies moved in. The 5th largest oil reserve in the world, with enough production to last 80 years at current output, and their associated natural gas reserves of 400 years. So these foreign companies came in, and for the last 50+ years have been taking the oil and ZERO of the wealth gets back to the communities of Nigera. ALL of the wealth goes into the pockets of foreign oil billionaires. There is a 100 million a month payout to the central and local authorities, but since this began, NONE of it goes to the people. Not a single school built, not a single hospital staffed. All of the handdown money stays in the pockets of corrupt local officals and their friends. So the Chinese went prospecting in 2008, and failed to find anything worth tapping, but all the nigerians prayed the Chinese would set up because it's proven that they really DO improve the life of the people with the wealth taken from what is essentially the PEOPLES resource. Not Opecs, not Shells, but the Nigerian people, especially those working around the delta who take the oil out of the ground. Meantime the natural environment has been and still is being ravaged and polluted, young gangs of Nigerian boys constantly aim to kidnap as many oil executives and managers and engineers as they can, and the oil companies pay out £80,000 or £100,000 or more every time to return these engineers etc to their families. The money is THERE, but the only way the people can access it, is to risk their lives kidnapping these foreigners. One engineer that was kidnapped was paid £180,000 to oversee pipeline construction. His nigerian labourers were being paid £3.50 a day. This was 15 years ago. I cannot imagine it has gotten better. Crooks are crooks, but these oil executives and their pet government officials in Nigera are the biggest crooks of all, responsible for misery and death for decades. They should all be shot, and the oil and gas should be making Nigeria one of the most wealthy countries in the world, where the streets are gleaming and every citizen lives an amazing lifestyle.
@@TheVanillatech Not surprised to hear any of this. The real crooks are the rich getting richer, not the people trying to survive. It shouldn't be the name of Nigeria being looked down on, the world should be shaming the oil execs and their friends in power across the globe instead. Colonialism never ended, it only adapted.
If you really had billions your day would not be filled with shopping trips, clubbing, and social media flexing. In fact you wont have time for all that bullshit, because you are busy attending meetings, reviewing contracts, reporting to your investors, visiting sites etc.
i gotta say, i feel way worse for the lonely people getting victimized by romance scams for a few hundred dollars than i do for the companies that have hundreds of millions of dollars stolen from them....
this guy could be behind romance scams aswell,they prob use those as a training ground to root out the best scammers for more hardcore stuff later on..
Those and the ones where they target old people are the only ones I actually care about. Kids getting scammed (hopefully not for much) is part of life. I've gotten scammed on runescape a few times as a dumbass kid and it taught me caution and overall has been good for me.
@@tedkaczynskiamericanhero3916 Oh yeah the Runescape lesson was a surprisingly good one. My policy is basically to just never trust anyone outside of my family with anything I value unless I know that I can pose a genuine threat to their overall wellbeing lol.

Husband gets fired ... because the company was scammed -> Divorce -> Lonely ex-wife looking around on the internet ... [1] in fact two not even remotely connected events.
@@dieSpinnt yeah, i get what you're saying. not trying to compare the actual morality of the two (though it'd be really funny to break down the concept of morality into a numerical scale, like white lies are a -0.1, but grand theft auto is a -56); just comparing my emotional reaction to the two scams. the former makes me think of my grandma getting scammed, while the latter just makes me think of blackrock getting scammed haha

If he was smart he should’ve invested money back to his area to improve it, to garner more sympathy. So it can give him somewhat a philanthropist appeal and not a straight up scammer.

What?!?! You mean the Nigerian lawyer , who’s uncle is a prince, that offered me to invest in a no lose auto warranty company, and needed to move $20 million into my bank account to hold for him, till I marry his sister , is all a scam!! Noooo!
You missed out buddy i cashed in the prince owes me big time now, i gave up all my possesions and he has invited me to his place, i couldn't afford a ticket so i had to borrow, when else would you get to see a royal prince.. he even said he would buy them for me just because its a complicated bunch of flights so i transferred the money.. fingers crossed i make it, wish me luck
Just because he stole from the rich companies doesn't mean anything good. It is always the lower mid to bottom level employees that suffer. The hospital my mom works at lost a lot of money. So they are slashing a bunch of departments including food serving (where she is) where they are already understaffed to have a bunch of workers slashed to save money overworking them more while the people running it are still making pay raises and bonuses.That kind of thing is constant in companies, so stealing large sums from companies just screws over the little guys. The only time I have seen the higher ups take a pay cut when the company dipped was with Nintendo. Edit: Often the customers suffer too due to lower quality products are being pushed put for higher prices to make up the loss.

They have an entire genre of movies and music dedicated to internet scams in Nigeria. You can find some music videos on YT if you look around. Think bragging about selling drugs but instead of drugs it's email scams. 🤣
You should do one on the rapper "Ksoo". He's currently on trial for 2 murder cases, both of which he has rapped about and put out youtube videos, and in some of the videos he was even wearing the same clothes that he was caught on camera shooting his second victim in. His father is going to testify against him in court. He's guilty as fuck but claiming it wasn't him. Even the murder weapon is seen in several of his videos.
Isn't that same as DaBaby basically? If you're a rapper you're just allowed to beat, Rob, murder and rape whoever you want Cause who's gonna argue with the rapping community? People who wanna get beat, raped and murdered that's who 🤣
Part of what you said actually isn't correct. A witness said the shooter was about 5'6". Ksoo is over 6 feet tall. But he has a friend who fits that height. They call him "Scottie" or "33". And he's a known shooter.
1 of my girlfriends colleges, got an email from her boss, asking her to buy £600 in gift cards. But she also needed to keep it quiet and she needed to buy them from her own money and he would give it back. She went off sick the next day. Some people are way too trusting
It’s hilarious how pathetic some people are to look up to scammers just because they also dream of wasting money on gaudy junk. The materialism of this world is such an absolute eyesore, it might say Gucci but all I see is “clown”
eh they dream of having the power to get a bunch of gaudy junk -- of being free from poverty, everyday obligations, and real problems, and having nothing to worry about. the junk itself doesn't matter; it's just the easiest way for a shallow man to flaunt living out that deeper fantasy. a man who spends like that isn't worrying about any of the things normal people wish they didn't have to worry about
On one hand, I can empathize with people in impoverished countries or living in poverty turning to crime as a means of getting out of poverty; but on the other hand, if you’re ripping off people indiscriminately, you’re contributing to the problem.
I'm only 4min in but what a missed opportunity to inform people there's scambaiters on YT & Twitch dealing with 419 scams to this day. The OGs like Scambait Central.
I honestly hate our local Nigerian hustler mentality which is “I was born poor, therefore every rich person is an enemy that stole from me”. Sickening!
Just hustle culture in general, "I gotta do literally everything I possibly can to make money, no matter what. And since I'm a hustler I never stop, gotta keep going for that bread".

Old money tends to be either nobility or industrialists. And just because paying your child labourer $ 1 per week for a working week of 60 hours a week is no longer allowed today, doesn't mean the family is criminal because their greatgreatgreatgrandfather did it back when that was still legal.

I once saw a quote along the lines of "Police don't catch criminals because they're smart, they catch them because the criminals can't control their ego".
That's part of the reason why Gus Fring in Breaking Bad was so good; he had a multimillion dollar criminal empire yet still took the trash out at the end of the night at the restaurant before driving home in a Volvo.
Even then his ego took him down. If he hadn't felt the need to taunt Don Salamanca on a regular basis he wouldn'y have provided Walter White with a way of knowing where he would be, giving White an opportunity to assasinate him. The reason Fring taunted Salamanca was revenge, but also pure ego since he'd won already. An Achilles heel.
and portrayed so well by an amazing actor. Gus might have been the character I found most intriguing on breaking bad (well.. maybe him and Saul Goodman!).
Being rich is great, but as a introvert. Being famous has to be a nightmare. Why would anyone want that?
You are talking about a fictional character in a fictional story.
@@mikec5400 oh gosh, really?
I've followed this case since his arrest in 2020 and am just fascinated by it. It's really fascinating how they finally caught him, the picture at 11:46 of him flashing the Rollie in the Mickey Mouse Tshirt was what finally nailed him (the watch not the shirt haha). He scammed a Emirati businessman who was trying to setup a school and then had the funds wired to a watch dealer. Then they tracked that watch back to Hushpuppi.
There was nothing noble about what this guy was doing. He did what any other greedy, selfish person would do and just lived in excess, which unfortunately is exactly what every other nobody wishes they could be because that's better than their reality, so he had lots of people drooling over his social media. He got to live it up for a while and now will likely spend much longer paying for it.
He probably still has hidden assets for when he gets out…. but that’s gonna new a long time from now
But that also means he himself is expendible. People like his lifestyle, not him as a person.
Want to know something scary? If you went to Nigeria (e.g. you were scammed to go in there for any reason), you'd be either held ransom for more money, or found dead on the street days later. Those scammers are extremely dangerous.
So I should go with a gun?
Just in caseim next
Wanna know something even scarier (for scammers IN Nigeria)
There’s a community initiative over there that brutally executes Nigerian scammers. If you find out their identities and out them to one of these initiatives they will be killed within a few days.
Nigerian scammers do it in hopes of fleeing the country before they get outed by a victim.
That’s why they’re so obvious in their formatting - they aim for oblivious individuals and actively do it to root out intelligent people, because if one intelligent person outs them, they’re done.
As a Nigerian, I can confidently say you are wrong. Just stupidly wrong.
Lol it's not that rough. Calm down
Why would anyone go to Nigeria or any African Country for a business Trip w/o any Security
People idolise scammers and thieves, defending it by saying they’re only “scamming the rich”. No they aren’t. It’s the rich we get told about - because these companies aren’t going to fight on behalf of 93 year old Doris from Dorset.
One thief is two too many.
What a wonderful world we live in where the word "killed" has to be censored on a platform that doesn't take down 'life hacks' that have been proven to cause serious harm or death to people trying them in real life.
9:26 "and they assumed it was a robbery"
It's so weird how often raids are assumed as robberies.
They really don't seem to yell "police" anymore.
I'm surprised more of these cops aren't accidently fired upon.
They were corrupt, but loud music and playing victim is not out of order either.
tbf you can see in the video that they're wearing black vests with the word POLICE printed on it in giant white lettering. And when teams like this breach a room they go in prepared to be _deliberately_ fired upon, so they're not exactly going to be worried about accidental gunfire lol.
I would not rule out the possibility that robbers have also yelled "police" from time to time... These are con men and it's natural for them to assume they were being conned.
I've never heard of this person, but that was a ride. Very interesting video. So does this mean I am not getting the reward from the Prince?
Kira you have defo become my fave youtuber with the documentry style vids, not to mention the more laid back loks at interesting topics! - Keep up the good work. Peace
Agreed, being able to hear the details of these things I've never heard of is really nice. Especially in Kira's style of putting it all together in a cohesive timeline.
Another great deep dive on something I knew nothing about (except from you).
The reason he got caught is because he couldn’t give up the game, by that point he shouldn’t have been near any of the daily activities of the yahoo boy’s let alone posting all that wealth or even having it. Dude should’ve been a silent partner by that point
f'd up stuff. when joining the bad guys is the only way out of being the floor mat. be the scammer or be nobody. what a terrible reality that must be.
As an American looking into this situation is quite perplexing. On one hand I have my morals where this is absolutely disgusting robbing one man for your own gain, but I also say that with the luxury to have morals and live an okay life. Definitely is a pretty tragic situation all around.
@@komodoah You could say when you live and grow up in poverty and corruption morals become a privilege, either stay in the same hell hole and rot, or elevate yourself at the expense of others. Nobody in the west would condone this but people in the third world have that sort of mentality, they view any body better off than them as rich. The lack of saftey and education also is a big factor in this as well.
@@SmallLegacy You are on the money. I cannot say I grew up as poor as some of the people in question but below a certain threshold morality is a privilege. If being moral does not buy food and you're starving, so it goes.
Morality is not real, money is real. Hate what is being done, punish what is being done but it will never stop for as long as they are the only and sole means to an end.

Didn't expect Dubai would actually do anything against hackers, I was under the impression that unless you went after local people/companies or outside companies connected to influential officials you could do basically whatever you wanted.
Was thinking the same thing, Dubai is a known sanctuary for MLM scammer, so did some research. His arrest was due to involvement in a scam in Qatar. This is fairly close to Dubai and I bet some of the government officials work together. Another thing, around $40 million was confiscated and I bet Dubai got to keep that money as a reward for cooperation with the USA.
Dubai doesn't lift a finger. He ran a scam inside one of the other emirates so he broke the cardinal rule of not scamming an Arab while being non-Arab.
That's literally the only thing Dubai cares about.
There's a guy hiding there who owes me 60K and owes all creditors in excess of 18 million. Not to mention the Netherlands having to pay money to Dubai before they extradited mass murderer Redouan Taghi. "This guy is a drug criminal responsible for 40+ murders" is not something that bothers Dubai.
@@JaimeWarlock I lived in dubai for 11 yrs and I can safely say that dubai officials do care alot about credit card theft and scams for some reason? Even if it isn't rlly relevant. One such example that stands out to me was when this Australian man scammed my dad out of the rent money he owed him and he ended up getting arrested and then deported. Sounded a lil much to me but when it comes to property and money the police fo a decent job at cracking down at them. Then again I rarely saw police cars and now I live in the UK with like a crime happening every day lol
He was not a hacker, he didn't have the knowledge to hack, he was only a scammer.
@@zaingamingtv2242 Where were you originally from? How’d you end up in Dubai?

There's a proverb in Romania translating to " the uncaught thief's a fair trader " i dunno if it reffers to poor people stealing out of need or it's some sort of joke to give anyone the excuse, if it can be called " an excuse "
I think it more likely means that everyone is a criminal. Some people break insignificant laws (like using VPNs to watch Netflix) but if want to be rich you have to do more. In other words when you see someone rich you easily assume they broke laws
As long as they're not caught we can all pretend they're honest, hard working men

I talked with several Nigerians during the riots and I heard some pretty horrible stuff. One story I heard was that SARS or another group cut the power around a group of protesters then opened fire with heavy machine guns.
One person I spoke to sent a video of her friend that got his guts blown out by a cop.
Now I don't how much is true but from what I've gathered they're pretty accurate. It was horrible.
The protests were about SARS which was a police division notorious for kidnapping, murder and robbery, that was just the regular armed police killing protestors.

I read an article the other night in a National Geographic from back in 2007. It was about the oil discovery in the Niger Delta, back in the 1950's and 1960's, and how 5 of the largest multi-national oil companies moved in. The 5th largest oil reserve in the world, with enough production to last 80 years at current output, and their associated natural gas reserves of 400 years. So these foreign companies came in, and for the last 50+ years have been taking the oil and ZERO of the wealth gets back to the communities of Nigera. ALL of the wealth goes into the pockets of foreign oil billionaires. There is a 100 million a month payout to the central and local authorities, but since this began, NONE of it goes to the people. Not a single school built, not a single hospital staffed. All of the handdown money stays in the pockets of corrupt local officals and their friends.
So the Chinese went prospecting in 2008, and failed to find anything worth tapping, but all the nigerians prayed the Chinese would set up because it's proven that they really DO improve the life of the people with the wealth taken from what is essentially the PEOPLES resource. Not Opecs, not Shells, but the Nigerian people, especially those working around the delta who take the oil out of the ground.
Meantime the natural environment has been and still is being ravaged and polluted, young gangs of Nigerian boys constantly aim to kidnap as many oil executives and managers and engineers as they can, and the oil companies pay out £80,000 or £100,000 or more every time to return these engineers etc to their families. The money is THERE, but the only way the people can access it, is to risk their lives kidnapping these foreigners.
One engineer that was kidnapped was paid £180,000 to oversee pipeline construction. His nigerian labourers were being paid £3.50 a day.
This was 15 years ago. I cannot imagine it has gotten better.
Crooks are crooks, but these oil executives and their pet government officials in Nigera are the biggest crooks of all, responsible for misery and death for decades. They should all be shot, and the oil and gas should be making Nigeria one of the most wealthy countries in the world, where the streets are gleaming and every citizen lives an amazing lifestyle.
@@TheVanillatech Damn this is so true. And also same with Somalia when they shoot the stupid pirates that try to come aboard the vessels.
@@TheVanillatechThere own people signed the deal but there mad at the oil companies because of how corrupt there own leaders are lol.
@@TheVanillatech Not surprised to hear any of this. The real crooks are the rich getting richer, not the people trying to survive. It shouldn't be the name of Nigeria being looked down on, the world should be shaming the oil execs and their friends in power across the globe instead. Colonialism never ended, it only adapted.

Just because he stole from the rich companies doesn't mean anything good. It is always the lower mid to bottom level employees that suffer. The hospital my mom works at lost a lot of money. So they are slashing a bunch of departments including food serving (where she is) where they are already understaffed to have a bunch of workers slashed to save money overworking them more while the people running it are still making pay raises and bonuses.That kind of thing is constant in companies, so stealing large sums from companies just screws over the little guys. The only time I have seen the higher ups take a pay cut when the company dipped was with Nintendo.
Edit: Often the customers suffer too due to lower quality products are being pushed put for higher prices to make up the loss.

You should do one on the rapper "Ksoo". He's currently on trial for 2 murder cases, both of which he has rapped about and put out youtube videos, and in some of the videos he was even wearing the same clothes that he was caught on camera shooting his second victim in. His father is going to testify against him in court. He's guilty as fuck but claiming it wasn't him. Even the murder weapon is seen in several of his videos.
Isn't that same as DaBaby basically?
If you're a rapper you're just allowed to beat, Rob, murder and rape whoever you want

eh
they dream of having the power to get a bunch of gaudy junk -- of being free from poverty, everyday obligations, and real problems, and having nothing to worry about. the junk itself doesn't matter; it's just the easiest way for a shallow man to flaunt living out that deeper fantasy. a man who spends like that isn't worrying about any of the things normal people wish they didn't have to worry about
