Originally describes rogue taxis that rob passengers, but now any scam or trap. If someone says 'I entered one chance,' it means they fell victim to a scam/ambush. It's a warning for sketchy opportunities.
"That investment app na one chance, my guy put money and the app disappear. (Meaning: That investment app is a trap – my friend put in money and then the app vanished.)"
