I got the sms i screen shot from the number that appears on top of the image this morning. I decided to play along and called the number indicated in the body of the sms, the voice i heard sounded like a voice of a Pastor, an igbo voice.

The conversation goes thus....

Me: Phone ringing ..........gran...grannnnnnn

Grifter: Helloooooooooo

Me: Good Morning

Grifter: Hellooo...how are you....how is your family....how is business....(with igbo ascent)

Me: I got an sms that i needed to update my BVN

Grifter: yes

Me: which bank did you sent the sms from?

Grifter: Don't you know your bank, which bank do you bank with?

Me: You are a scammer, grifter, thief...hand of law will soon get you......


My prayer: with the present SIM card registration, how do we ensure this kind of people are brought to book. Kind assist by getting these numbers to the appropriate authority to same gullible people from falling victim. The numbers as appeared on the message are +2347035157237, their help line 08147882563.

Lol..... I dey find person wey sabi do this kind thing.

Make him come ma side, have plans for them.
