Tuesday, September 3, 2024 - A victim has reached out to Robert Alai seeking justice after he was conned of Ksh 600,000 while buying a car at a car yard along Kiambu Road.
Sadly, he had taken a
loan to buy the car.
This is what he wrote:
My name is John Paul. I am a husband and father of 3 young
boys. I hope you're doing well. I’m reaching out because I’m in a distressing situation
and need your help.
I recently fell victim to a scam that has left me both financially and
emotionally devastated. I took out a loan to buy a 2016 Suzuki Wagon R (660cc).
I found a car yard in Kiambu, where I saw, tested, and agreed to purchase the
car. After paying KSh 600,000 and signing the agreement, I returned to collect
the car, only to find that the sellers had vanished. The yard next to Windsor
Autos is still operating as if nothing happened. When we returned, they feigned
ignorance and claimed they thought we were with the scammers.
I’ve been to Muthaiga Police Station, but they’ve only asked for money to
facilitate their work. They even said that even if I go to the DCI, they will
still ask for even more money. I’ve also contacted Absa, the bank where the
money was sent, but they’ve been unhelpful. I talked to my bank Co-op, but they
said now it's up to Absa. I’m attaching all the relevant documents for your
verification, including the OB number from the police and the agreement.
The scammer remains active and bold, with his phone line still operational
(0700044417/020 7867024). The guy who showed me the car was called Shedrack and
here are his contacts (0781 500532/0741 422247). This guy is online, posting
different profile pics, and seems to have connections that allow him to
withdraw money from the bank and Mpesa easily.
I’m reaching out to you in hopes that your influence can make a difference.
