every POS is registered to someone. It could be a POS or a mPOS so what I'll advice u 2 do is get the address of d POS owner. Go there with police men in mufty to inquire if they have CCTV. If they do ure in luck. Its also possible that the POS owner knows the buyer.
Is it not possible he could have his own POS for this scam
moreover the store where he used the pos doesn't have an address

the last transaction should be traceable, go to the bank and explain to them to trace who owns the last account transferred to
The money wasn't transferred

First Breach Of Bank's T/C : You gave your sister (third party) your ATM card.

Second Breach Of Bank's T/C : Your sister (third party) gave your ATM card to a complete stranger (fourth party).

PLEASE NOTE THAT YOU WERE NOT UNDER DURESS WHILE ISSUING YOUR ATM CARD TO YOUR SISTER. AND I BELIEVE YOUR SISTER WAS NOT UNDER DURESS WHILE ISSUING THE ATM TO THE STRANGER.

My brother, you no get case abeg.

Just learn from your mistake and move on.

N.B: I hope your sister learnt hers' too.

If he owns the POS, that's easy. POS are registered to a particular Business.

Mr man there's no need for panic, you already have what you need to apprehend the thief. Since this thief did ecommerce with your card, all you need is to trace the seller he paid for the goods and get the name and delivery address for the contact the goods will be delivered to. That's how to catch the thief. End of story.


which delivery address? He probably paid, picked up the goods and left...

Sorry about your plight. I'm not surprised such an evil thing happened in Aba. A lot of people there just think of nothing but evil continuously. I've been badly burnt there too...Yet they claim it is commercial capital of the east. God will catch all of them soon.

Chai! From #187000 down to #7000 they really emptied your account o! But 187000 is not even enough to buy a Good pair of shoes or samsung s7 grin grin *jokes*
the annoying thing is even if you catch the thief what are you gonna do to him/her? nothing! If you are not carefull you might even get into more wahala! With the thief, he could be dangerous too

get the details on the card seize at the ATM. with the card details, the issuing bank should be able to spool out the details of the owner. hopefully, it will be the culprit or someone who knows him

That card is just fake. It was given to her so that she would type in the pin again and again as the machine says wrong Pin and the so called helper would watch her type and cram the number. When she leaves, she has the fake card and he has the real one with the pin.

@OP so sorry about the theft. Please peoe should be careful. If it seems that the ATM ain't working, please leave and go try elsewhere. Do not allow any stranger help you with your ATM transaction.

I had a similar experience, 103k was withdrawn from my GTB acct through UBER taxi Lagos station. The funniest thing was that my card was with me.

Look if you expose your card details even without pin to anyone .
they can use it on PayPal to make payment for any merchandise online.
that's why you need to keep your card details safe
cos with PayPal if someone setup an account and put in your card-details it is ok enough to withdraw from your account

Reference:
This is a clear case of laziness. They 'help' you folks with everything, even withdrawing your own money. Can't you do your chores, can't you be patient in a queue, can't you be patient to learn how things work and how to get things done. Yet you don't have the resources to risk and waste. If a single ATM card can wreck this much havoc on your finances and cause worldwide publicity then you should not be handing you card to just anybody, I mean anyone at all. It is the rich that don't do cards, don't do queues and don't moan about people pilfering from their stash. C'mon, wake up.


Exactly. Op, messed herself up by giving her sister her ATM to collect cash for her. These guys are everywhere.

Op, let the bank check the CCTV and play it back. They will surely get the guy's pixs.

Is it all the numbers on the card or the last four that is needed?

if the card is fake or damaged, the ATM would have out rightly rejected it.

Really painful but nothing you could do..... I had similar experience in 2012,while my wife was pregnant for our twin girls at a point she was so heavy she then divulged her pin to a girl we were staying with becsuse i was away for a biz trip..... i don't know what transpired with her at the point of withdrawal .....My wife started getting alerts,when she called the girls line switched off. Before we know what was going on my wife has received alert of 75k...... later at about three hours... she came by crying....Asked her what happened......Long story.Advice,dont reveal your pin or send anybody to go get money for u via Atm.......The story at times touches

Don't make a bad situation worse. The sister made a mistake even the smartest person could have made. Don't make careless comment that would soil the relationship of has with his sister. Nobody is perfect
Forget about relationship when it's the truth,what if it's 10million plus in that account?.she need to be chastened hard.nobody is perfect but when man makes error even God do chasten one.the thief is very smart and it will take a miracle to trace him,am sure the ATM he left with the bank wasn't his,he bought goods and am also sure he will provide fake address.
