nnamdiosu:


well that's very easy to find out na. let Hillary tell you the month he refunded the money. then tell the victims to send you a scanned copy of their statement of for that month. if Hilary truly paid you would be able to confirm by looking at the date if anything like that transpired.

Excuse me, I have not been refunded a single kobo. I am only quiet because by my calculation the three weeks he asked for will end on the 8th of December. Dont let him fool you. I have not been refunded. If it is @curiousmind ask him but for me, I have not been refunded.

@curiousmind gather all pics and evidence you have of him. This thing must surely go beyond nairaland. It must leave keyboard and enter his real life. Because when he scams ppl he is affecting ppls real life from using keyboard. E go be am like election campaign for im eye

Curiousmind:
@GoldPencil, I 100% agree with you. It is more than 3 weeks now and nothing is done to this Hilary. Hilary have not refunded my money and he has improved his game now by changing peoples anel name and so that he can keep the site to himself. He changed my anel . Can you imagine? Monkey dey work, bamboo dey chop. God punish devil. Domain name and web hosting that I bought with my hard earned money, Hilary had the guts to change it. I wish I can catch Hilary, I would have slap fraud out of his dirty face.

@adewasco2k, the topic of this thread should be changed from allegation to FACTS. These are all FACTS; two witness testifying opening on public thread. What FACTS do you guys need again that Hilary is a fraud? Hilary should make Nairaland Frontpage asap so that it will serve as a WARNING to other fraudsters in nairaland. Hilary should be used as a SCAPE GOAT. That's my 2cent.

@GoldPencil, do you agree with my above statement about Hilary?

This is exactly why I dont want a website from HILARY THE FRAUD. HILARY, Nothing short of Monetary refund will stop this our campaign. As I said earlier, He will do a rubbish site and say that afterall he has completed the job. Thankgod say @curiousmind don expose am. I dont Want your site again B4 you change Come claim am for yourself. Refund our Money Or Watch in Silence as we Accelerate This Campaign. End of story.

@adewasco2k oga we just de wait o. Shebi dem say make we give am 3 weeks after him don already talk say DEFINITE date of Oct 20. Months after he shud have finished a two week job. I asked for a refund because I know he will just be wasting time. And even if he does it it will not be what we agreed to because u see, he cant do the work, probably just some one who opens wordpress s then s and installs themes or plug ins. Any slowpoke can do that. But we dey here de siddon look.

I don't know about @curiousmind but I cannot wait until December 8 for a site that was supposed to be done in 2weeks since August 4. Hilary is just postponing things and I on the other hand will not postpone anything. People like hilary dont listen to reason. They prefer whips. So I will continue my campaign and I would like others to in. We are moving to facebook next very soon.

adewasco2k:


Curiousmind and GoldPencil can you guys wait for the 3weeks time, starting from today?

To me thats just way to much considering the time you had even before they open those threads and the time from then till now.

For me 3 weeks is a NO but if they both agree to wait then no problem.

as i said earlier, there is actually nothing much we can do even if you refuse to comply but the little we would do might not be good for your business.

If you are busy, you can find d someone who will do it for you while you supervise it

Lol. My brother, I put it to you that this man does not have or has never had any intention of doin that site. He saw me as another fresh fish. I dont care for ur job. We agreed that u wud finish in 2 weeks and as of yet, it is now 11 weeks. My own is that until I get my moneys worth in either cash back or a professionally done site to my taste, I will not stop. I will not relent. I will rather advance the cause and you will have to cut your face off. I dont mind to add money to make sure my lesson is well delivered. So however soon you want my onslaught to stop is entirely in your hands. That is all.

Lets be clear b4 they say person no get conscience. I explored every peaceful avenue I could think of before embarking on this route. Its just in typical naija fashion, he chose to not respect the person hes doin biz with. So person gats to behave anyhow. He was asked to refund the money, he didnt. He was then asked to refund 25k instead of the initial 30k. The reason for this was that if he had even bothered to pay for hosting, 3500 will cover for that expense and then he can have 1500 for any other expenses he had incurred. Making a total of 5k that was to be shaved off from what he shud return. He still no refund.

OYa do the website now, him no do he come de talk nonsense abt definite date for here. So that it will not be like I get water for mouth as I de talk these things, I have attached a pic below. Let us learn to be professional like th oyibos most of us are always looking up to. Let ur yes be yes and no be no. If u cannot do a job dont say u can and waste someones time because time is money. Also you have blocked work for another person who was ready and does not have multiple side jobs. Dont be fraudulent.

So u dont think that im talking nonsense or water dey my mouth pls look at the date involved.

adewasco2k:
I locked up the two threads involving @hilaryiwens05 and @GoldPencil

Fraudster Alert involving Hilary Iwenofu Of H.I.T Technologies

and

a case between same @hilaryiwens05 and @ Curiousmind

Scam Alert ~ involving a Web Designer On Nairaland

i gave the accused time to try and sort things out since i know he could be really busy with other things aside web development.

But i think if he is really serious about cleaning up the mess then he has gotten enough time to do that or show something tangible to signify a serious business guy.

I know nairaland CANNOT force him to do what ever he doesnt want to do but since the two guys involved ed you via nairaland then we can also ONLY help in making sure no body fall for this again.

Searches on Google with any query like "hilary HIT Technologies" will bring up those threads and you know how bad that is for future business .

So please i will like us to resolve this case on this thread ASAP and get those threads deleted.

Possible resolutions:

1. refund full money
2. refund part (if some work as already been done which could help who will be taking over the job)
3. complete the job and get full payment

If u want I can show you messages where I have pleaded with him to return the money and he hasnt. I then asked that he refund 25 instead of 30k at least 3500 will cover domain name if he even bothered to buy and then an extra 1500 for his troubles, totalling 5k which I asked him to shave off and return the rest to me so I can find another person, him no gree. Oya do the work na, till now nothing. so permit me o because this is the only way I can take my own pound of flesh.

cbrass:


Creating a new thread can't clean up the mess, I guess he should just close this handle and open a new one

YEah. He should also change his face too. Because I will have to be adding his face to new post so that there is facial recognition. We must prevent this bad behaviour on and offline.

guru01:
i wonder why the other thread was locked when they know that new ones can easily be opened

THe truth is that if im locked I will use other avenues even besides nairaland. I will not stop until he loses at least 100000 worth of business or more. So the thread locking no bother me. You will know that a good name is worth more than silver or gold.

@iamdemigod @jregz @maekhel @guru01 @vinshu @onyengbu @curiousmind @djangocode @cbrass @micodon @younglino hello all... pls what hilary said abt today? I have attached a screenshot to refresh ur memories. go and check 9jacasting.com today that is 20th. This guy is a fraud help me protect others. He must be stopped. Lets spread the word. We can make a change by dealing with one person.
For thise new to the cause, pls refer to this thread for more info https://nairaland.unblockandhide.com/1943132/fraudster-alert-involving-hilary-iwenofu

micodon:


Young man, whenever hilaryiwens05 shows up, CMSGURU appears. I've been monitoring. We aint dumb dude

this is precisely the problem with the likes of hilary, he assumes everyone is idiotic because he was given benefit of the doubt. its not so my brother, i saw all the warning signs, just decided that 1 person will at least do the right thing. there is no hope. now it is my turn, i have to prove you right and show you how idiots really behave since you have decided i am one.

CreativeWeb:
I know it's a wp website. But the theme sucks. And why will he use the default permalink for the website?

OP, let me craft you an awesome website and then thank me later.

ask hilary to refund my money then I will give u a try with the money refunded. Besides where is ur portfolio. U shud have some to showcase.

It is futile hilary, you have been found out, this is just beginning, all these ur tactics to stall for time or damage control is useless. u want to some bullshit site and say after all u delivered, like u did with curiousmind. u are a fraud, nothing more and u must be stopped, that is all. we will move to more and more threads and more avenues until u repent of ur fraudulent ways, you will no longer scam any poor soul here.

CMSguru:
like serious....u are a kid...wat do his hosting business have to do with all this

ok adult.

Jregz:

am seriously dumb right now.... I pray he gets apprehended ASAP …………....

please lets get more people involved

onyengbu:
When you term someone a fraud on a forum like this, you should at least tell the full story of your dealings with him as well as present proofs of your transactions.
You dont just call him a fraud to call him out and wait for him to say something first before elaborating on what actually happened. I am not holding any brief for the guy, but if you have to undertake something as big as killing someone's reputation (deservedly or not), you should make it clean.


*** This again touches on the issue being discussed on the other thread about charging too low for jobs. One of the result of charging too low for a job is abandoning the job in the middle of it. 35k is damn too low for a listing website. And that should have flagged something in your mind when you were negotiating.

Lastly, always demand for some sort of confirm-able identification before engaging people you cant reach physically.

People, please understand this when commenting, its not about price, it was never about the price, the average price quotes i received were from 50k to 70k and 45k isnt far off from 50. for all i know they cud be all frauds and i just took the cheapest option. its possible that i would have paid 1 million naira advance for the site even and he wouldnt do the job and just disappear with the money instead. if u have agreed to provide value for a sum and u don provide it after collecting money, then you are a fraud. The issue here is simply that Hilary Iwenofu is a fraud and his picture is here to help u steer clear of him and his fraudulent ways, that is all.

i honestly dont know what story or proof you want again that hasnt been provided. the story is that he asked for 45 to do the whole job with a max time limit of 3weeks, he was given 30k and 2months later no sign of work in progress. on the issue of charging too low, how am i , the client supposed to know what is considered too low? i had sampled 6 other ppl before him and they all fell in the price range of 50 to 70k, na my fault? i have not put the receipt here because i feel its not the perfect time to reveal such, the snapshot email upthere at the beginning of the mail should suffice. i can provide the receipt here upon request if needed but the snapshots are enough unless you just dont want to be objective and see things for what they are. search his name sef on the site and u will see im not the only one he has done the prank with, the likes of @curiousmind and co will attest to this claim. for me its not about the money, i havent been largely affected by it but someone else will, and that is what i am trying to prevent with this thread. whether or not the money is too low for a listing site does not make what he has done to not be a fraud. if you are not fraudulent, then you will not accept the job at any price or you will refund the money and say you no do again. lets not make excuses for criminal acts, that is why nigeria is the way it is today.

iamDemigod:
Tell us your story.. How much have you paid?

so my friend(s), me in my world wide campaign. Let us make sure that he never defrauds another person again. It may be u or ur family member next with their last 5000 naira savings. I believe if we handle this one properly, more ppl will be discouraged or tread carefully when they think of scamming others. Please like and share this thread. Lets get it trending as front page material. Lets take the story to facebook, Twitter instagram and all. Eventually we we will even go to newspapers with it and with sufficient funding and permission, outdoor billboards. Lets make a change for once. Dont fear, I have all the proof, screenshots and all, receipts and text msgs, he could not even show courtesy and respect for his client and provide screenshots of work in progress. Even if you finish the work now and say im lying, what you have done already constitutes breach of contract and negligence. We will not stop till u and others like u understand that conny man die conny man kill am. U don jam De Law himself. We have to stop this conny man die culture to grow as a ppl. Thanks. #HilaryIwenofuIsFraudulent

iamDemigod:
Tell us your story.. How much have you paid?

hilary creates or pays ppl to create multiple sites (I doubt his ability as a developer). He creates multiple sites to make u think he can do a job. His best is hostchillyng.com.... he also has multiple s here incase he is found out.
Once u ignore the voice in ur head saying "this is a nigerian trying to scam" and u engage him in a bid to prove that at least one person can be honest and do a jobe he/she is paid for, u don mess up.
he asks for 30% upfront of whatever u agree, claiming that he will not start ur work with his own money. Then when u pay, he runs away with it. Continually promising that the work is in progress. Simple confidence trick by a Future politician.
the good thing is that I will not be damaged by his acts. And im in a position to use money and teach our dear friend a lesson about the money he loves so much. Others may not be so lucky. Ppl do not pluck money from trees so that another person will run with it without exchanging value.

Fraudster Alert. Hilary Iwenofu of H.I.T technologies is a fraudster.

Dont mind the portfolio of websites he claims to have done. He is a fraud. If you must do business with him, make sure he executes the job first before pay. Caveat Emptor. BUYER BEWARE.

I am just doing my own honest bit to rid this place of those without conscience, who refuse to let e commerce grow by destroying trust.

99 days for you, 1 day for the owner.

breakaz:
Hilary did thesame to me, took 50% upfront. if i should have seen this thread earlier

Dont worry, like the linda ikeji saga, we will make sure he never scams anyone again, whether on nairaland or other platforms, then we move to offline. he thinks people pluck money from trees to be giving him in return for nothing. ppl's sweat and hustle and clientele. gone, just like that. 99 days, 1 day.

call me for ur fraudulent web hosting and website designs. Unlimited defrauding space for just a token of #25000 if u already have a ed domain name or #4500 with the domain name registration. Hilary Iwenofu of H.I.T TECHNOLOGIES hostchillyng.com

Vinshu:
That Hilary is handsome really..

Kind of...

Back to the topic.. 5th Aug is way long enough and he said 4 weeks.
This would be called FRAUD!

Report his website for fraud and write a bad a review on all major forums and blogs.

lol trust me im way more handsome, what i will do on the other hand is going to be ugly. Fela talk am, say one day go be one day

DukeNija:


You be real mumu.. Open my profile and see if this is hilary. Your fo.olishness is clouding your sense of reason.

ok

Strahovski:
I am not ing hillary, i barely know him.

Normally, you should him via an email or text message or even his website(If you did your payment and other stuff on his site) , and give him some time to respond to you. If he does not respond, he may have issues just be patient.

It is then if he does not still respond for like a week or two then you come here with evidence.. Post some screenshots of your BBM chat, your emails, your payment invoice etc..

www.whsms.org

Look at the dates in the pics i have ed then look at today's date and tell me truthfully if sufficient time hasn't ed for this man to be branded a fraud (that is his pic, OOU Computer Science Student). Only a fool will keep waiting when he sees neither his money nor his work. i can provide screenshots of our arrangement, every discussion/plea made, he cant even provide a single screenshot that my work has started. worst part is that i have had to pay the owners of the work with my money. na to activate plan B.

and dont worry hilary, no need to open multiple s, as i said, ive only just begun, that will be the most expensive quick money you ever made.

DukeNija:


Guy what is wrong with you? Why are you being so childish? Why tarnish someone's image on a faceless forum because you paid him in advance? Is he supposed to start your job from his pocket? How do you even reason? Anyway, Hilary did my website and for your information he is not a scam, infact, I am very indebted to him because I paid him in bits. He finished my work and I was even owing him, I owed him for months without paying because I had not started my biz and was broke at the time. I eventually started and paid him, and I can attest to the fact that he is a very humble and committed webdesigner. And for your info, I have never set my eyes on him. Business involves trust, and when you are not a reputable person, its impossible to trust others. Chew on that. You can checkout my website on my signature if you think I'm not trustworthy like yourself.

ok. thanks for your contribution. go to the bank and collect money with it. collect my money too or my finished work, thanks.
