WHAT HAPPENED

Could this be true or false? That every idle and lazy person just want to turn to either criminal or kidnapper?
I once had an experience of 419's (fraudsters) dupe me a large amount of money, after then i have been very watchful.

It was on the Thursday night, thereabout 8:15pm i was rushing to get home because sure, we closed late. I trekked down to where i could find tricycle only to realize the road was already dry, fewer vehicle, and no tricycle. I usually prefer using the tricylce than buses, as i was still waiting and searching, a bike man drove by my me and asked where i was heading to, i pointed to him straight (signifying i was going to drop at the last junction before reverse).

As soon as i hopped into his bike, a very brief young man stopped us and was talking about product stuffs, foreign money, and few other things. Having had experience of this 419 (fraudster) people, i remember the pain and hell i faced that day, with anger, i used my finger to punch the bike man's neck asking him drive and stop listening to the rubbish the young man is talking about.

Surprisingly enough, the bike man asked me to go out from his bike and then he carried the so called stranger and quickly drove off. It flashed back to me how it happened the other time then i realized i had entered the wrong bike. The way i talked to the bike man made them to know that i have come across such nonsense before. Could you imagine that they path they drove to has nothing in connection with the place the stranger said he packed his goods, i so much thank God for life because the other one that happened wasn't funny at all.

I got home that day by 9pm after i later enter a bus. I told my family when i encountered within a short period of time, they thanked God on my behalf and even reminded me that the spot i stood to board a tricycle was the same place that stuff happened to me before.

WHAT YOU HAVE LEARNED FROM IT

With my experience, here are few lessons i have learnt which have kept me going;
@chiomzy810 was saved by God's grace

• Minimize the time i come back from work and stop coming back late.
• Ensure i dont engage in uneccessary conversation.
• To never stop praying because prayer helps to deviate away evil.
• Never rush but watch carefully before you enter any vehicle.
• Act boldly not to get driven away from their evil strategies.
