A concerning incident involving @taiwopeters25 on Instagram has come to light, where the individual has been reported for duping clients by collecting payments for services and disappearing without a trace.
One victim approached @taiwopeters25, a furniture artisan, for a service costing N100,000. Trusting the artisan, the victim made an upfront payment of N50,000, expecting to settle the remaining amount upon completion of the work.
However, much to the victim’s dismay, @taiwopeters25 vanished immediately after receiving the payment, leaving no trace of communication or service delivery. Despite repeated attempts to reach out, the victim received no response.
To this day, no services have been rendered, and the victim has not received any refund.
