"I received a threatening email from Intercontinental Bank this morning. I'm still kind of shaken and I can't figure out if they are threatening a "Spiritual" or "Physical" attack. Why would a "healthy" bank threaten a "lowly" blogger for doing a public service?   After all, the CBN is conducting a "Special Examination" of the bank. Well, if anything happens to me, I guess my wife and kids will know who to hold responsible. I plan to take this threat seriously. I won't be bullied. I remain an intrepid newshound.

Intercontinental bank are a sham. Their books are cooked. Their balance sheet and P&L paints such a beautiful picture that they must be liars! No wonder they would stoop so low as to send threatening emails. Like bank, like employees.

I guess u are mistaken the identity of who sent u d mail, if u check properly u'll notice dat its not their coperate affairs dept because they were only copied in d mail. maybe u should just tk dis ur fight easy and give urself some break. it looks to me dat u are trying too hard to make ur point. people are not dumbs, dey can discern d truth from mere rumours dat have hidden motives.
if u say CBN is currently going tru their records, i think dat is just normal to actually ascertain and finally put to rest all dis rumours about Intercontinental bank. with all due respect, Please let us wait and hear from more informed people who may not be biased. as for d mail, dats just a concerned staff responding to u and not intercontinental as a bank. am sure u know dat.

What is the difference btw a Student and a School?

I think if anyone knows the implication of trying to bring down a bank with stupid rumours like this one, they would desist from this nonsense!

The strength of a bank is based on perception.
If a bank is very healthy, and a rumour like this one spreads successfully, depositors would withdraw their monies and the hitherto healthy bank would be in danger!

Under normal circumstances,even in the USA the blogger who spread this kind of rumor would be arrested!

@df2006
Dont get me wrong, as for difference btw a staff and his employer, it is not to be defined to u. what am pointing out is the fact that personal opinions are not same as corporate position.
But we should understand dat the Pull Him Down syndrome will only kill dis country d more. the fact is dat no financial institution can survive a run on dem. If rumours like dis are allowed to continue and dey succeed in running intercontinental down, it wont be the end. who knows d next bank dat will be faced. I think we should be more productive with our time.

U seem not to get it! If a bank is sick, its left for the regulatory body to act. But how do u explain when a bank is killed by rumour mongers. If u understand how d business of banking is been run, u will know dat it is not possible for any bank (anywhere in d world) to pay back all its depositors if dey wish to withdraw at the same time. Dis is what happens when rumour mongers take on a bank. Depositors request for their money almost at the same time. Tis run on d bank will only succeed in killing d bank. So choose ur calling in life!

yeh right i dont. like i was born yesterday. got my cib in 1998.  that is the chartered ins. of banking  , for yor info.

Re: Did Blogger Dayo Coker Receive Death Threats From Intercontinental Bank? by kelvd4real(m): 1:54pm On Mar 22, 2009

dat was just a concerned staff's reaction, which does not necessarily represent the organisation's opinion. Lets not act as if we cannot discern the truth from falsehood.
There are more selfish intents to all this. its just obvious forget your CIB. the question is what do u want to achieve with it?
with Ur qualification, I expect you to be the one to educate the forum on how to identify a sick or failing bank. I mean more informed opinions and not all d one lines we get with no valid or informed points in dem. Please lets face it. this forum should not be an avenue to pass insults or selfish motives, rather people should be able to be well informed when dey participate in discussions here.
thank u.

Using the bank's e-mail account to send threats.If this Letter from intercontinental bank is actually true,Then the person must obviously be a fool Using the banks account to send emails. Its shows how jobless the person was @ work and if this is actually true,he is tarnishing the bank's image.Hope you know the repercussion of using company email account sending such message(threat message). intercontinental management need to find the fool who sent this message cuz he has just broken the rules of the company if they want to keep their reputation .Haba,using it to send threat message(that is just too much).
Cuz this blogger can make this a vey big case and the banks reputation would be @ stake.
The stupid staff is just a f--king employee. He should leave it to its board of director to solve this(which i am sure they would never send dead threats)

Very stupid Staff Rumor or no Rumor,They have no right to threaten anybody. The bad part that still baffled me is the use of the company e.mail account to send that kind of message
Re: Did Blogger Dayo Coker Receive Death Threats From Intercontinental Bank? by kelvd4real(m): 2:12pm On Mar 22, 2009
I agree with u, that employee has actually shown how unprofessional he/she is. am sure the management of his organisation will certainly sanction him for such an unprofessional act.
Re: Did Blogger Dayo Coker Receive Death Threats From Intercontinental Bank? by MrCrackles(m): 2:14pm On Mar 22, 2009
If the bank are claiming not to have issues the threat via email, whoever is responsible should be fished out and made to face disciplinary actions

It is a sackable offence in most organisation and establishments, misuse of IT facilities!
Re: Did Blogger Dayo Coker Receive Death Threats From Intercontinental Bank? by oderemo(m): 2:21pm On Mar 22, 2009
the point of the matter is fishing out the person/s involve should take the bank no time to find , cus all e mails are traceable anyway, the point am raising is the authenticity of the case if any at all.
Re: Did Blogger Dayo Coker Receive Death Threats From Intercontinental Bank? by Okenku1(m): 3:28pm On Mar 22, 2009
I doubt the authenticity of this email.

Where is the 'From' in the detail?
How come  'To' is attached to dayo's name showing up as 'todayo'?
Why does the subject line have 'RE' if it is an initial email?
I have a gmail account, however the show details does not work like this.

Just my thought.
Re: Did Blogger Dayo Coker Receive Death Threats From Intercontinental Bank? by Nobody: 3:29pm On Mar 22, 2009
Hello, please when did we starting calling an employee a staff? Abeg I wouldn't want this year's folks testing on the use of English in UME to fail.Banks are bad people! Their interests run in kobos when you deposit and in thousands when you borrow.They are fake people and can go to hell!

@ode remo
No disrespect, but a name speaks a lot about a person (at least your comments prove so)
You claim 2 have gotten your CIB in 98' and you're opening ya  mouth 2 say let all or any bank fail!

You lack understanding of basic economic issues.
If a big bank like intercontinental fails  because of false rumors, the whole Nigerian economy will fall and your will be the first to go Hungry!

Change your name oh, it might help erase negativity from your reasoning!

Incase you don't know, in an advanced country, the blogger would be standing trail and would probably end up in jail!  
Re: Did Blogger Dayo Coker Receive Death Threats From Intercontinental Bank? by PapaBrowne(m): 3:44pm On Mar 22, 2009
The bank should sue the blogger for libelous writing! He would be sentenced to jail!
Any advanced country knows the implications of this kind of criminal act by the blogger!

Read what happened in South Korea on a fairly similar case:
http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/092a99ca-ddab-11dd-87dc-000077b07658.html

I have a simple question? Intercontinental bank is a private company directly employing over 4000 nigerians.It is not a government agency.
Why would anyone in his right mind wish for the bank or any other private company to collapse?. I do not understand this pull down mentality amongst Nigerians.It is sickening!Very disgusting!
If a man is successful, every poor man will be praying for his downfall! I really don't get this Nigerian mentality!

Read the story about south Korea

I was able to pick one line there
"Korea’s communications law, which bans the spreading of false information online, he could face seven years in jail".

Do we have that Law also in Nigeria?
Re: Did Blogger Dayo Coker Receive Death Threats From Intercontinental Bank? by steeee(m): 4:07pm On Mar 22, 2009
@ poster

another disadvantage of being nigerian ignorantly displayed. na only email dem send you. wait for more. because a bank charge u 100naira u forget say u be human being.

someone should have told you responsibility comes along with the right to blog.  you guys are playing with the financial well being of nigeria and not just ICB.

you may think you are getting away with this stupidity but fail to realise you leave too many foot prints to make tracing u so easy. that includes the mobile phone being in the vincinity of the  cyber cafe.

i hope they catch and make you see kiri kiri quick quick
