"Your story is not buyable if investigated, 1. how does the person you send money to have your account details, 2. Why would your partner send your details without your approval 3. How come you only asked questions about their source of income after the money hit your account. 4 how does you sending back the money help protect your partner who is being threatened in Nigeria?"
