You are creating the stereotype where there is none, there are bad and good people anywhere in the world even in Saudi Arabia.

It's only someone with little reasoning that will judge me negatively simply because of the continent or country l come from.

@AllahisgreatP
Sir, I'm not creating the stereotype where there's non. It's obvious and I've heard, seen and experience several situation about this issue.
We're in 2021, you can't denial this isn't happening.
We're all in this together.
Online purchase, online application, b2b transactions and even freelancing portals I won't like to mention to name a few, are all areas where we are affected by the stereotype once your identity is known just because we have fraction of the bad eggs that are not suppose to be generalized as our lifestyle.
It's more like a research for me if I can get people to give their opinion on the matter.

@Justme Please don't confuse sir. It's not a research for degree but personal out of curiosity.
You may not understand because you're not a victim.
Even recently a payment gateway stop sending money to my country banks maybe because some people in this part of the world abuse the system idk but my point is they're the minority not the majority so it shouldn't have affected everybody here. That's just a recent example.
Sometimes you need to provide too many verification just to do a simple purchase.
I guess you can now relate this to my previous comment.
I try to avoid calling names.

To give you more clue. when a freelancing platform boldly displays your nationality which is what they do generally, as an African your chance of getting shortlisted for a project is automatically reduced.

@smartzy am sorry you confuse me again are you referring to datting or other opportunities like business transactions and jobs. If it is about online dating well the rejection or not shortlisted got nothing to do with colour or continent or brother or sister it is happening to every one unfortunately most of us are not looking for a date and if we are looking for it is a bespoke one if it is other opportunities am sorry mate it is a dating site.

If not, maybe I should rephrase my comment.
When people from Africa for example gets on a dating site, they most times are seen as scammer.
