Just got this scam SMS some minutes ago so I decided to share, before unsuspecting Nigerians fall into this trap.

Dear Customer, we are running a compulsory security enrollment of all ATM cards issued by banks in Nigeria. CBN as the apex body will block all cards not enrolled within 24hrs of receiving this notification. Visit link: http://217.71.50.11/~update to secure your card now.

Obviously the sender of this didn't do their due diligence, if they did then they will know that:

1. CBN favors TV/Radio advertising over SMS
2. CBN doesn't contact individual customers, they contact your bank, who is their customer.
3. Banks or the CBN never gives customers a 24 hr ultimatum.
4. Your bank or the CBN will use a page on their domain, not some phishing links with an unresolvable Ip address.
5. My banks would have sent me an accompanying email, not just an SMS.
