According to the lady identified on Twitter as Oluwaseun, she only regained her senses on her way home after the strange man asked her to return and bring her mother’s jewellery box.

She counts herself fortunate because the man could have hurt her when she lost her senses and was virtually at his mercy at his home.

“This reminds me of the day a stranger asked me for direction & the minute I spoke to him, I lost my senses. I found myself in his house and he asked me to go home to bring back my mum’s jewelry box. I regained sanity on my way home. What if he killed me there? May God save us,” Oluwaseun wrote on her Twitter page.

Her post has sparked a lot of reactions with many more Twitter users sharing their experiences.

Another Twitter user, @Preshius said: “Same thing happened to my colleague. She boarded a car on her way to work. These guys asked her for her atm card, got her pin and took her cash. She didn't know what she was doing until they dropped her by the wayside. It was her first day of work.”

@GemLadi11 recounted: “It happened to me around 2010 at Sango Ota, it was direction he askd for as well and another guy just came and said let's help him. Dat was all I could remember, I met myself in Jankara, all money on me gone. I tnk God I was not hurt.”
