Calls from Kenya, and Somalia. The silent button?

Post by zackabdul »

How many of you guys put your phone on silent when ever you see a 011254/011252 number? :lol:

How many of you guys send money back home?

Btw, I've been hearing they're getting more hi-tech, calling from private numbers, and using area codes from Europe. :shock: :lol:

lol. They use Vonage man. They will call you with MN, Columbus, VA, Boston etc area code. What they do is, they install vonage on computers here in the US and then they take them back to Nairobi. I don't even know how it works wallahi. Where there is will, there is a way. lol I don't send to young single people unless it is for school tuition. I send money only to families.

Qansa,

Vonage is expensive saxiib. I sent my cousin a Internet Telephony device that cost $40 for the year and that Farax has generated over 50 times that in profit. I helped lift him out of poverty,


Zackabdul,

This bloody TFG has cost me dear. I am now sending money to my eedo who used to rent 9 of her houses that she built in the 1980s to tenants. The fighting has forced her tenants to flee.

Are you abandoning reer Kenya?? We all have to help out.Having said that I know a guy whos' received at last 8000 $ withing 6 months,and basically fcuked it all. Like Qansagabeyle said-tuition money only;or maybe just emergencies. The safest business plan can go haywire.
