My Dad had his december pension salary withdrawn from his UBA account, thanks to ATM fraudsters. Please what do you advice on;

1. How to recover the money, which has being fruitless so far and
2. How to prevent future occurence.

Thanks, Best regards

get in touch with a lawyer .let him write them and sue them both for the money and also damages.

Your father must have unknowinly divulged his pin number to a second party. Contrally to the advice that says you should sue the bank, your Dad should rather change his Pin from the previous one he was using (i.e. if the fraudstar had not done it already);i am assuming that the card is in his possession. Secondly, your Dad should report to his Bank and request for the video footage taken by the atm machine's camera where the fraud was perpatrated. This advise is on the premise that the bank issued your Dad an atm card ab initio, otherwise he can hold the Bank liable for his loses.Meanwhile, if your Dad is still with d atm card while the fraud was going on,then his account shoul be 'debit-frozen' by his bank if he could not change the pin any longer but if the atm card is still missing, then he should advice his bank to 'hotlist' the card.
