Please did you confirm if the names and accounts that received the credits are in DB?
The account was opened for your wife to make use of the funds,have you confirmed from her the extent she had transacted on the account?
Most of us have accounts with DB and never had experienced this.

I don't understand some people. .Can't you simply ignore if you know nothing about the subject matter?!

Some folks have been shouting PHISHING. .Phishing does NOT work when token devices are involved. .Do you even know how a token works?

A token generates a new 6-digit number (tokencode) every 30 seconds. .and there's no way the supposed phishers woulda transferred 6times in 30seconds. . .

This is an insider JOB!!!!!!!!!

I hope you did not install Diamond Mobile Money Apps on any of your fones that might have been stolen or someone gained access to? It is connected to your bank account and works without the token (I use same so I know). Also, do you have a daily limit or not on that account?

By giving you the token, Diamond bank has automatically absolved itself of any wrong doing because the platform works based on Two-factor authentication - something you known (your password) and something you own (token). Without the two transfers cannot work.

The case is straight forward though, the bank needs to reveal the destination bank and from there, the owners of such accounts would be apprehended even if they use only ATM to withdraw (ATMs have got cameras in built).

No fears man. Classical case of not PUTTING all EGGS in one Basket!

WOW!!!WOW!!!

Good post!!

ukchy: Sooo sorry,i just want you to know that Nigerian banks are not fully matured for all this internet banking and online stuff,i will advice you to get a lawyer that knows what he is doing and sue their ASS.... embarassed after which you close the account...

This is a clear case of insider job,since you said you didn't update your account info online.My dear NL,we have to be wise and educate our friends and family to be alert especially those outside the country.

I was a banker and will tell you the truth,some of these IT guys in head offices are big time corporate thieves,so also some head of operations.They have syndicates that they provide with customer's info especially for customers abroad and deceased customer's or some customer that have not withdrawn from the account for years.They carry out most of this there fraudulent act on weekends because they sometimes need to do some maintenance work on weekends.they will use the opportunity to move customer's money and inform their partner's in crime.Our IT department was dissolve and everybody there was sent home because of incessant ATM and online fraud.Could you believe that a fraudster that works with IT guy went and open 3 different account in different branches with fake information and uses the ATM card to withdraw 14m in a day,on a Saturday,10 different bank ATM,to the extent that in one of the branch,he finishes the money in their ATM.the funniest thing is that he opened the account with 2k each,and the withdrawals was not showing on the account if you query the account statement,after serious investigation,they find out that the card issued to the customer was credit card not debit card and that somebody supply the thief with code he uses to operate,that was how the IT dept was dissolve and even the account officer was affected because he didn't do proper KYC. If you have worked in control dept,you go fear some of your colleagues.

What some of them do is to be checking customers account that has huge balance and less activity.There is a case that was on in my former branch before i left the HOP transfer customer's N17m to his wife account in Sterling bank and use the money to establish a BDC because the owner of the money is abroad and the account has been dormant for close to 4yrs,but luck ran out of him when the customer suddenly surface and want to make withdrawal,he try to frustrate the customer by delaying him and buying time to know if he will pay back the money and the customer suspect and went to another branch to query his account and was told that he has a balance of 15k,and that was where his wahala starts.

We have to be very careful because some of this guys live above their means and will always want to show off.

eggy:


parley, you do not need a token to do a third party transfer(DIAMOND TO DIAMOND BANK) methinks the perpetrator of the scam has multiple ATM cards for the numerous acct


If you don't need a token for this then the onus lies on diamond bank to produce the details of the persons account and freeze the accounts where the money was transferred to... And if they can't or if it is a fraudulent account they are still liable to refund the money because CBN requieres each bank to do the kYC thing an it's a breech if they didn't ...

After all if na bank error and money was transferred to a different account in error they will quickly freeze the account or put the count in negative and any money that enters will be taken immediately

I am very sure OP can take it up with CBN as some posters have said.

All those advising the OP to forget are the reason nigeria is still where we are today...

My point exactly the bank should confirm how the money was transfers if it is online transaction or branch or whatever... Though some people have confirmed that you don't need token to transfer internally with diamond bank... Which I think is foolish
Re: N818,000 Stolen In A Day At Diamond Bank- ! by blaise26abj(m): 5:33pm On May 06, 2013
GTbank internet platform seems different from Diamond Banks'. With GTB all online transactions, except transfers btw ur multiple accounts, u will need ur token. That is where DB's platform is lacking. All that scammers wld need wld be the user id and password. Which is what phishing and pharming can obtain from unsuspecting victims. And they can effect intra bank transfer
OP, i believe the bank is only at fault if u were not a victim of phishing. if u are certain u are not, pursue justice with vigour

Hello OP,
Let us know if the bank have contacted you, and perhaps if the identities of those boys i.e. The money was transfered to can be traced!!!

N:B~ I doubt if those names, are their real names, reasons are that in Nigeria anybody can walk into any bank and open an account, with even fake drivers lincense, International passport (fake names) National Identity card etc.

oga read the op's story well, he opened the account as a salary account and transfers money to his wife from time to time. So the wife can't use it for transactions

Trut: Sometimes banks staff play HANKY PANKY with peoples hard earned money. A staff of defunct AfriBank once emptied my mum account because she didn't make transaction in her account for more 5 years, when my mum went to withdraw her money, they told her that she has no money in her account, my mum then spark in the bank hall which draw the attention of the manager, they manager plead with her to have patient while they investigate matter, upon investigation they realise that it was a former staff that zwap her money on the pretence that she didn't transact in that account for years. After every every, they refund her money without interest and she close the account after that incident.
no transaction in 5yrs that absurd. Thats a wel packaged confabulation. And u did expect the bank to stil kip the acount active? Go rest jor u know nothing about banking.

This job was not done in nigeria. Dere is no insider job in dis mata. It seems fistbank nad diamondbank hv their system hacked at d moment. I knw sm1 lost 3million frm 1st and anoda lost 1.8mill frm diamond. D guys in nigeria hv opened numerous accts nationwide for dis new deal. D 3M frm 1st was traced to sterlingbank, where it was broken into 6 and wired out to diff accts, dis is d layerin process, u can't track dese funds, datz why d bank is confused cos d beneficiaries r 'ghosts'. Dose accts r nt even up to a year old and dese r d only transaction it does. D only way to get dese boys is wit their pics, nt their names. U'll discover its abt 5 faces for 50 accts and all dese wirin frm 9ja to SA/GH or asia take 10mins to consumate.

The account won't be active, it will be dormant but the balance should be intact even if the account has not had transaction in over 10 years

The bottom line is ,having a Sustainable and reliable e-banking capability isn't a choice for any bank describing itself as a new 'generation':ebanking is now a core aspect of any serious banking so no excuse here.
Any serious bank should be investing heavily on IT and building customer confidence on its IT infrastructure because at the end of the day,the more they (customers) use it, the less need for more branches and the likelihood of reducing the ones on ground.
Diamond would need to take this thread seriously , assess its capacity to deliver and make necessary amendment.It's alright to unleash your staff on the thread for the sake of publicity but the real thing is actually listening.
Hopeful you get your money back,boss .
