‘Never Share Your Hotspot With A Stranger’ -Nigerian Woman Shares Her Not-So-Good Experience To Warn Others

A Nigerian lady simply identified as Rita, has strongly advised people never to share their hotspot or mobile data with strangers after she shared hers and it almost landed her in trouble.

In a video she shared on her TikTok account, Rita said she was at an event when a total stranger, a female, asked if anyone can share a hotspot with her, and she offered to help.

According to Rita, one of her friends tried to dissuade her because it was weird for a complete stranger to ask for hotspot from people she doesn’t know but she still went ahead to help the stranger.

She said the next day, she received a notification that the 20GB data she subscribed to, which usually lasts for a month, had almost finished.
