Airtel NG(Network Provider) uses Social Engineering to Lure Customers to Borrow Airtime Unknowingly

Image
Screenshot of message from airtel  Recently, been receiving messages from airtel-ng which are very much an annoying type. but the most common of em all is the one with the content; To make longer calls, dial 14120 to get extra 200 naira airtime and another Dial 14120 to get extra 200 naira credit All this messages not mentioning to the customer he/she is making a airtime borrowment (that's in my dictionary :-D) ...  Borrowing Airtime As it is known that borrowing airtime cost the customer some percentage (10%) of the borrowed airtime. Conclusion Sending this kind of message to customers s*cks which i think is Illegal and thus classified Social Engineering .. Stated in the national constitution section hmm sub-section  uhn... this should never be allowed.. And I don't think NNC (Nigerian Communications Commission) is doing anything customer favorable about it..

Why Whatsapp have the "Change Number" Option

Image
In A Nutshell People been contacting Me to know all possibilty for whatsapp deactivating their other phone number for dual sim device(phone) users.. Then came up the idea to write this short sermon to preach to all ear hearing that its normal as thats the way it is designed by Whatsapp Inc.  On a neutral ground, using 2 phone numbers for a whatsapp account or to register any online account does not sound well to ones hearing.. Just being honest. So even if whatsapp make that possible i expect no body should be stupid enough to welcome such idea.. but only the geeks seems to understand most of this concept while the percentage of geeks being 5% :-P and even seems to be dropping as technology grows... Why?..    Reasons for the "Change Number" option Migrate your account payment status(not yet really active though), groups, and profile info to a new number Preserve and continue the chat history with the new phone number as long as you continue usin...

Sublime Idle-Lazy Theme(Color Scheme) for Netbeans for Web Developers

Image
In A Nutshell Been a while i have been trying out different IDE/Editors, but i hardly find one that quench my thirst.. All of em end up missing one thing or the other and i always find my self running back to Netbeans IDE for PHP majorly because of its features. You'd wanna ask to know what makes me not stick to Netbeans IDE. its actually because of the Ugly font it has, no other reason. I believe most programmers desires an encouraging environment for coding, not one you'd wake up to see in some morning and feel reluctant to jump into your own coding. So then i came up to make a theme on netbeans pretty much close to what i use on sublime text editor with some extra settings to enhance your coding with less distraction of netbeans warnings/alert. Download Sublime Idle/Lazy Color Scheme Usage Goto netbeans menu bar > Tools > options .... - and at the left bottom corner of the popped up dialog window, click import > locate the .zip f...
