Facebook scammers; My experience.
I will be sharing my experience in this article for others to learn, and to be aware that there are traps all over the social media(Facebook especially).
It all happened on a Friday, sometime last month, I logged in to my facebook account and then I went to my chats, most of my active friends on my chat list were not logged in(online), so I went to the videos and Started watching some football highlights, I watched comedies too and some tiktok clips.
After some minutes I went back to my chats and then I got a message from a friend;
**Friend**: hi
**Me**: hello
**Friend**: how are you doing today?
**Me**: Am good.
**Friend**: did you see my story on Facebook about an investment platform that I have been benefitting hugely from?
**Me**: no, I haven't.
**Friend:It's** a platform that trades with Cryptocurrency to get triple of your investment in just two hours time safe and reliable two part to you and one part for the platform.
**Me**: wow, how does it work?
**Friend**: HOW IT WORKS_*

**Friend**: It is 100% legit, I started with 25,000 naira and they pay me back with 50,000 naira, is just two hours Investment everything is done I was credited back immediately.
**Me**: since you said it is real, how can I also join?

**Me**: OK
**Friend**: Fill out the details, let me submit it to the admin for your registration and start up your investment.
**Me**: You know what, am not really interested in this investment of a thing.
**Friend**: Give it a trial, am assuring you it is 100% legit
**Me**: see am not doing.
**Friend**: Are you scared?
**Me**: Am not scared.
**Friend**: Then try it, Is just two hours Investment everything is done you will be credited back immediately.
**Me**: OK, I don't have any money to invest for now, so I will get back to you when I have the money.
**Friend**: Alright, I'll be waiting for you, when You are ready.
**Me**: Thanks.
**Friend**: You're welcome.
At that point it didn't occur to me as though I was going to be duped,because I was chatting with my friend, and someone I trust, although I had some doubt too, but I was already blindfolded by the return of the investment.
For some minutes, I kept thinking, because when I said I didn't have money for the investment, I wasn't lying, if I had the money I would have sent it to him for the investment. So I had to keep thinking about how I was going to get the money to invest.
***Few hours later,*** my friend who I just chatted with called me, I was even surprised, shockingly for me he said his Facebook account has been hacked by an unknown person, he warned me to be Careful if they ask me to invest in any platform, he kept shouting at me on the fine***“if they scam you no be me oo, I don talk my own oo!!!".***
Sweat started dripping from my forehead😥😥, I just fell on my bed and started thanking God that I didn't send any money to invest. My dear brothers and sisters, we live in a world where everyone wants to make money, and not everyone is willing to work for the money.
***Please be careful when interacting online, we will not fall victim of scammers.***

First Virtual Learning Experience in school📚💻
Academic exercises has taken a quick revolution to what we see today as virtual learning, the effect of the pandemic around the globe triggered virtual learning as people now have to stay in their homes.
My school took to this system to ensure learning continues at the comfort of learners in their different abodes, which is now accepted by all and referred to *as our new normal.*
Virtual learning in my school has proved very effective in some ways, and has also been of advantage to students in many ways. Talking about access to course works, learning material, assignments, pre-recorded lectures, and many more on the student portal, anywhere, anytime, once you are logged in to the student portal, you are at school already.
Virtual learning has also sharpened digital skills, most resources requires learners to acquire useful ICT skills. It has also made the acquisition of various text books, course materials available at very cheap rates as we have them in PDF formats, and can be carried everywhere with cellphones, flash drives and other storage unit easily.
More also, it has generated different platforms for asynchronous interaction between learners, irrespective of their locations. Immediate feedback on test results too as marking has been computerized, learners see their test results almost immediately after submissions are made, virtual learning has really helped in time management.
However, virtual learning in my school has encountered some setbacks, not on the schools side alone but also the students too. The issue of mobile network, unstable power supply, high rate of data consumption during classes, Inability to carry out some practical classes, as they are still impossible to be conducted virtually, these are the few cons of virtual learning in my school.
Virtual learning experience for me has been great so far, many schools have took to this system even before the covid-19 pandemic, the pandemic gave yet another phase of possible quality education as students are still connected with teachers on the Internet.
And from now, pandemic or no pandemic, the reality of virtual learning has struck a lot and student and given many life option to quality education without attending college, as there are many online universities, diverse courses student can take and earn a degree after the stipulated time of study.
**It's obvious, virtual learning has Come to stay, it's going now where!!!**
