Could Someone Steal Money In My Account With Simcard by Nobody: 7:01am On Feb 27, 2018 |
Someone sent me this and I am wondering Good evening everyone. Listen up everyone. I have a tip of a security advice for us all. If your gsm number is connected to your bank transactions, whether it's in use or not I advise you right now to set a PIN on the SIM card. Not the phone. |

If they have your sim card along with your atm card or the card details vis the 16 digit number, ccv and card pin, they can drain your account |

Yes it's very possible.....if they get hold of your BVN, all they just need is to clone your simcard and deactivate it from receiving alerts while your account is wiped NB : if your sim card (phone number) is connected to your bank account, they can get your BVN by just dialing a code |

MostBanned:unless they can also clone your face what you are saying doesn't make sense. if this was possible everybody's account will be empty by now. |

All forms of e-crimes like this should be expected as we progress more and more as a cashless society. It's only a natural development. |
