Check unknown Nigerian numbers with recent reports (Lagos, Abuja, Port Harcourt, Kano) and share your experience.
Unsure about a Nigerian number? Explore concise community notes to judge calls and texts. In Lagos, Abuja, Port Harcourt and Kano you’ll see legitimate callbacks (deliveries, banking, appointments) as well as waves of robocalls or phishing. Mobile 080/081/070/090 ranges and 01 (Lagos) legacy fixed ranges provide context but are not proof of origin due to portability and VoIP — treat them as hints, not evidence.
Verification: return calls via the official number on the company website/app, check in‑app notices and never share one‑time codes by phone. Use device/carrier blocking for repeat issues and leave a short, factual note here so others benefit.
This number called me, saying someone used me as a guarantor, and if I dont pay, they'll come after me
Barawoo...
A warning has been provided by the user.
Apparently, I've been receiving calls from this number too, they claim someone I know has an outstanding debt and they're threatening to take drastic measures, it's clearly a scam, I wish I could take them to court, but I need help, somehow, someway, to make them pay for their actions, it's really annoying me.
I'm worried that this line is trying to scam me with a loan I know nothing about, and I need help to avoid falling into their trap.
I demand that you cease calling my number immediately
The number 01 888 7897 has been sending me threatning voice messages, stating that I signed a guarantor form for an online lender, which is not true, so I need your help to stop these calls and investigate, thankyou
It appears that this number is involved in a scam related to Eco Bank, be carefull
Looks good, man.
The user recommends exercising caution
I recieved a call from this number, but I couldn't hear them clearly, and before I could respond, the call ended
Despite numerous calls, the loan they mentioned remains a mystery to me
I'm unsure how they obtained my number, and after missing the call, I tried to call back but received no response, which has raised my suspicions; I would appreciate any guidance on how to proceed.
This number has been associated with undesirable activities
Radiant Systems, the company behind this number, has been pestering me with job offers I'm not interested in, and their representatives are difficult to understand due to their thick Indian accents and soft spoken nature, leading me to suspect they are actually based in India and using a London front
Nigeria is blessed to have individuals like me sharing genuine warnings: beware of this scam line, as it demands sensitive information such as NIN and BVN, which should never be disclosed to unverified sources.
The identity of this number is unknown to me
This number is reportedly untrustworthy
User warning: be cautious
Apparently, some idiot contacted me, spewing nonsense about a certain mayowa, and I have no idea what that's about; if my BVN is compromised, there will be consequences.
Use the official number from the website/app; avoid calling back the unknown number; check in‑app messages.
No. Portability/VoIP make 080/081/070/090 and 01 patterns unreliable as proof of origin.
