postemail:What are you doing about the person whose name money was transferred to, the N200k? Union needs to know it was unauthorised so they put a lien on its withdrawal or spend. |

The police can trace the union bank guy and arrest him to get a refund. That's the only sure way. This particular scam has been on for a year. Banks susceptible include GTB, Access, Zenith, Sterling and Ecobank. Poorly paid telecom staff charge the cyber criminals around 25-70k to help them swap a victims phone number. The criminals also buy accounts for 20-25k to cash out the funds. Sorry for your loss. For others hoping to avoid this, ask your network provider to move your sim to "manager" swap. That way, it can only be retrieved by a very senior official. 4 Likes 5 Shares |

rydow: Gbam, and imagine.. The thread was just pushed to FP. Very biased, incompetent set of MODS. I know they are gonna ban me for bashing them due to their incompetence but I don't care. I can't imagine something sensitive such as this just getting to FP. If it's Tonto Dikeh's butt and Snakes, it will be fast forwarded to FP... They are so much in love with Mercy Johnson's cleavage than reasonable topics. 21st century mods claiming the wisdom of Solomon. Even my 1 year plus boy knows the right thing to do at the right time. 22 Likes 2 Shares |

Some amount were transferred to a union bank account, the investigation by police should start from there, there is a name the person has an address and bvn, he can certainly be traced by police if you are ready to follow up and spend money as they will ask for logistics |

so after over one month this post got to fp. Nigeria is a country with a lot of misplaced priority. All we worship are useless politicians and celebrities who add no meaning to our lives and we carry their matter for head. Useful post like this won't be pushed to fp early.....

I hope so too. The "oyerinde abiodun" dude with account in Union bank pulled the money so fast before the bank could freeze it. I called Un My question is what happened to BVN? I thought with this number -face and finger print, we are super secure! It doesn't appear to be the case. [/quote] I'm really sorry to hear you had to go thru this. Knowing GTBank you may need to be very extreme and aggressive as they have all adopted their MD's arrogance coupled with shallow thinking. The BVN is the biggest scam of all time. It's a reactive system not proactive. I feel your pain. Let's know how we can help. |

Hmm, I've always thought about the possibility of such happening, scary and discouraging, even though it's my most used form of banking now..i think the bank should increase the security level, not just the last digit of your card. |

wandyvirus: The OP has been refunded by GTbank which is commendable, now GTbank through their fraud unit will pursue the guy in union bank to get their money and prosecution, one thing am sure of is with BVN he can only run but can't hide or should not use any bank again as his BVN will be flagged by CBN, he will be caught certainly 6 Likes |

mayoor15:You guys don't get it, do you? The reason it didn't make front page until his money was refunded is simple. Nairaland is like every other corrupt entity in this country. Nairaland makes a lot of money from these big organizations via ad placement. That's why Nairaland mods refused to push it to FP. But now that the OP's money has been refunded, they immediately pushed it to FP, in order to give good publicity to GT bank. I'm very disappointed at the mods. There is a good reason why things don't work in this country. 27 Likes 1 Share |

I was on ghost mode before. the answer the m.o.d.s will give is they don't know if the report is legit. but they will be send fake news daily and counter news of the the fake story sent to front page with speed. since Dec 1 just scroll through, you will be amazed at the news gracing front page. I think nairaland is competing with lindaikeji just for traffic purpose. meanwhile, zenith was using just *302# to recharge before, I bought a new line and sent text to my contact of the development then kept the line registered to zenith account at home codely (I only check it to verify alert) because anybody can take your phone recharge, even to another number but recently they added pin verification to it. 1 Like |

Admin401: Gbam, very wicked mods. At this point, my opinion is that, this forum is better off without mods. In other words, their job here is useless. Only thing they are good at is to hit the ban button and push what my 1year plus old boy won't push to FP... They need to be tutored about their responsibilities... Seun, do something before your so called mods ruin the credibility of this forum. I was banned one certain time coz I condemned their actions. It all boils down to the fact that they reject the truth and the opinion of members. They love ife inĂș... 10 Likes |

postemail: Guy, u are not alone in this ! GTB is really beginning to annoy me. I was charged over 470 naira(can't remember exact amount) in October, 2016 for SMS alert. I asked them if I was sending bulk SMS. I used to sing the praises of GTB to high heavens but after the death of their visionary CEO Tayo Aderinokun, the bank has completely lost it. I have always questioned the reasoning behind using the last 4 digit of your ATM card as PIN ab initio ! 1 Like |

OP, sorry about the loss and inconveniences. Thinking of your case, Etisalat staff that did swap on your number has a unique username, so he will be caught for swaping your number, there are certain questions to ask and answer before sim swap is done, including having picture of the sim owner on the system. As for GTB, they are falling in standard in terms of good service delivery. Imagine gtb charging me twice today for service charge. Calling gtconnect is waste of time, they have bunch of rude Customer care agents there. I remembered recently an account of mine was blocked, I kept calling gtconnect and the guy there was very unfriendly and rude. 1 Like |

Whoever waited 30 days before taking this to front page is an idiotic person. Shameless mod/supermod/admin. Even after calling your names, you guys choose to push snake and gossip tales faster than real issues. Continue like this and Nairaland would lose its relevance in the scheme of things.
