Not the first time i will hear this sort of thing about FIRSTBANK and they can delay for Africa and still not provide solution or information on theft.

Some banks sabi do rubbish. It MIGHT not be an illegal transaction sha, let me give you my experience.

I am the financial secretary of a society in church. I do the withdrawals while the president receives the alert. Sometime in October 2019, I made a withdrawal of 88k from ACCESS BANK branch in Nyanya, Abuja. The debit came, was seen and deleted. Fast forward to December 2019. I went to print out the statement of account to prepare the financial report and, lo and behold, on that SAME DAY I made that transaction, there was a transaction of same amount but FROM KETU, LAGOS and in a different NAME.

The final balance tallies, the transactions tally etc but the name and location.

I take style ask pesin for there how e go be. I was told that I had to write an application then they will investigate... Bla bla bla. I just did my report, explained the discrepancy and recommended we moved to another bank.

So, op, check yourself well well..... It might be the same thing that happened to you and an honest ATM withdrawal of 20k by you has been stupidly substituted by your bank. Check if your account tallies and balances out. If it does, just quietly PORT to another bank. My TWO KOBO

Is your ATM card registered on any platform online? Is yes that could be responsible for the withdrawal.. becoz the description will also show POS withdrawal.

Good evening, everyone.

I am an undergraduate student at UNN.
I applied for an opportunity recently that required me to submit a copy of my statement of account (SoA) to the organization for verification.
As i was going through the SoA now, I just discovered a POS transaction (withdrawal) that I never made as I do not use POS at all for fear of scams.

It reads.......

POS TRAN-SABON MAFARKI VENTUR/EN/NG/28072021

A Google search shows the said company is in Taraba state.
https://nigeria24.me/sabon-mafarki-ventures

The debit is N20, 000.


How was the withdrawal even done without my card?
I am so sure my card never leaves me as I'm quite scrupulous about my things.



I am so lost now
Pls what can I do to get this sorted out currently?
Can anyone assist me with the procedure of getting my bank (FirstBank) to look into this?

To think I need money badly this period.
cry cry cry
op have u ever been to TARABA b4?
Or are u currently in Taraba?

Pls reply.

I really cannot remember right now but
I haven't bought anything online throughout this year. That I'm sure of.

I only use the card to pay my school fees (on Remitta via my school's portal) and to fund my Barter (by Flutterwave) and PalmPay apps, as I began airtime sales recently to make some money for small expenses.

But the airtime sales began after the said fraudulent debit occurred (August).

I'm so confused..
cry
this are likely the problem.. Have one card for online payment, when ever you need it just fund it..

same stupid firstbank ba? I made transfers to two different people last week, and they never received any alert, myself i didnt received any alert too but when i checked my balance, i discovered that the money i transfered has been deducted from my balance even till this day, its yet to be reversed, am at the outskirt of town and very busy now thats why i never go give them wahala.
next time ask the receive to check their balance, the money has been credited.. I experienced same, all I do is check balance and I will see the reflection on the account balance..
Maybe you have been played by the receivers

The thing still dey confuse me sef, can one do a careless withdrawal on a POS?
I run a POS business and I'm having analogue and smart terminals, there is no option for withdrawal without card on both types except you want to transfer. Also, except a card is used, you can't carry out a transaction on a 3rd party account, as only account attached to the wallet can be transacted on.
It would have been possible if the transaction was done online, so the probable cause is misplaced card, stolen card or clone card. Likely more of stolen then returned to his custody by someone close to him

There is cardless withdrawal. It will be withdrawn with OTP(code)
