Wash Wash guys even go to the extent of hiring expensive cars from car bazaars just to look the part, brain washing is always the key to wash wash.

There are many forms of Wash Wash , I will dwell on a few examples that are very common.

1. THE FAKE MONEY SCAM 
This form is the most common type of wash wash and it usually targets university students and young youths who are eager and hungry for huge amounts of money i.e hundreds of thousands or even millions …

You meet up with an old age mate from a previous life, the guy looks like he is living the life dressing well and he is even driving while you a first year or second year student is struggling with college life so you ask the guy what his secret to success is, he whispers

“Msee hii life ni kuwa mjanja, mimi huosha pesa Bro ” So you are curious and you ask him how you can get into business he tells you that you need materials for that kind of business and those materials require money, your curiosity gets the better of you , he explains further

First of all you need:
1: Money Materials 
2: Chemical 
For a hundred thousand material you will buy it with ksh 10,000, for 200,000 you will need ksh 20, 000 and so on 

At this point you are attentively listening and picturing how you can get rich quickly

He then tells you that he will introduce you to the Material guy then introduce you to the chemical guy all you just need to do is get the money for the material ready . He leaves you are overjoyed and you begin to hustle up and down for the money ….

You are able to raise 10K so you call him and tell him what you have raised the guy the introduces you to another flashy friend who gives you 100K notes in form of materials . The 100 K looks like this 

Now they tell you that those black notes are materials that require chemicals to change it into real money now you need like 15K to buy the chemical and at this point they are talking of buying the chemical from some indian guy , you become so interested but since you…

don’t have 15K what do you do you either sell that laptop that your parents struggled so hard to buy it so that you can study or you involve a friend who can raise that kind of money all in all you need to raise the 15K for the chemicals

You hustle up and down you run until you eventually raise 15K then you bring it to your friend he then decides to introduce to some other guy who deals with the indian who sells the chemicals , the guy brings you the chemicals now you are finaly on your way to be 100k richer

They then take you to a room probably somewhere where you feel safe and they show you the trick of changing fake money ” black notes to real one ” with the chemicals . First they mix the chemical with water then deep the material inside then they dry it

It’s usually a scenario that looks like this 

But the cash that is produced is weak and easily tears off they then mix again take an original 1000 note place it in the middle of two fake notes then they wrap it and apply pressure on it for about five minutes then the chemical guy tells you that the material is too strong..

for the chemical and the chemical won’t be able to produce an original money thats why the first material was weak therefore you need original money like about 50 K to strengthen the material and the chemical

At this point they unwrap the tissue wash it off with the chemical water and wallah there you have two thousand shillings plus the original one making it three thousand the black notes have turned out to be original . At this point you are willing to go to any length

Now you have to look for 50 K to strengthen the fake 97K that is in your possesion so as to make it legit , now this is where most students or youths decide to do whatever it takes Fees my fren is the option here . You decide to take your whole semester fee your Helb loan to the

Wash wash guy, they will then repeat the same process as before mix the chemical with water take the material deep it in ….one funny thing they will request you to buy basic things like Vitamin C , a foil paper , rubber bands just to fool you 😂😂…. they will then remove ..

the fake material take your original 50 K place a thousand in the middle of each 2 thousand fake material notes in the name of strengthening the fake then crush the vitamin C and sprinkle it on the bundle of money then they will wrap it up with a foil paper and tell you to apply

Pressure on it for approximately 8 hours or 9 hours you will obey and do as asked but what you won’t know is they have switched the bundles of foil paper and have stolen your original 50K oooh you fool applying pressure on a bunch of papers while fantasizing on being rich

After 10 hours you open your bundle only to be met with black papers no money you desperately call your guy he asks you some stupid questions like ” did you expose it to heat ? Are you sure you applied the exact pressure ? And you are like ” Msee niliweka hadi kabati juu yake !”

He then ask that you two meet up with the product , you meet him up at a secluded place he comes alone and tells you that you must have done something wrong and the 50 K has dissolved with the fake money you therefore need another chemical to revive it .

You are now very doubtful but your friend convinces you that it is possible so you ask how much it will take he tell you 50K but he himself will sort you out with 25K so you just have to look for 25K and he also assures you that the revival process will recover the 97K too

Now you are back tarmacing looking for 25K after weeks of hustling you finally get it you have sold almost everything you are in debts but your hopes are with the fruit you will reap you then bring the cash to your friend ….to be continued

Where were we ? ….You have hustled so hard now you bring the cash back to your friend he then buys the chemical and start conducting the process but while you are in the process pap police officers raid your hideout they arrest you and your friend

You are so shaken up and you are taken to the station and charged with possession of counterfeit money they tell you to produce a bribe of 200,000 at this point you have no option but to involve your family members a very shameful ordeal

Little do you know that it’s all a set up by your friend working with corrupt officers . My fren that is one form of wash wash

2. THE TENDER SCAM WASH WASH 
This one is carried out mostly by politicians and their proxies . A notice of Tender / Advertisement is placed in local newspapers and you an aspiring tenderpreneur quickly gets wind of it

You apply by emailing all the necessary documents , certificate of incorporation, pre qualification documents kra pins etc . After a few weeks you get a call and you are told to visit one of the govt offices where you are introduced to person A and B

The persons asks for your bank statement and after a few chit chat they ask for a bribe in form of a gift so as to award you the tender. Knowing too well that you are going to benefit heavily from the deal you decide to bribe the “officials “

After a few days or even a week you are awarded with an award letter and an LPO of the things you are to deliver to the govt now the ball is in your court you start the hustle of looking of a way to fullfill your end

Most govt tenders go even upto billions and you take loans borrow money but eventually do order for the equipment . Little do you know that the said officials have been keeping tab on you and when you are ready to deliver they suggest that they will come and pick it up themselves

You have the feeling that they have even saved you the cost of transportation . The guys turn up at your place with govt vehicles complete with govt stamps, seals and documents they are even at times escorted by police officers you then present to them your invoice/delivery ..

receipt and they sign it then they are gone and tell you to expect payment in two weeks , after two weeks you call them you are told to follow up after two weeks there has been delayed payment from treasury this game will continue until you yourself decide to visit the office

only to find out that no such people exist and no such kind of tender was ever issued all the equipments that you supplied have vanished to thin air plus the bribe that you gave out

You quickly involve the DCI but this is Kenya justice is rare and if they are caught the cases will drag in court for eternity . PS many Kenyans have fallen prey to this scam it often leads to depression and at times even suicide but the perpetrators always walk free flaunting

Your money . Be careful of tenders
