Good business idea but my fears are as follows: -

1. Who is backing the guy up with security to have gotten the liver to sit there with all that cash?

2. How did he get the POS device connected to a banking system without having a fixed address? He's clearly simulating a purchase transaction on the POS and using the cards to deposit into an account.

3. How sure are we that he is not also stealing your card details to clone? While this is a good insight, people need to be careful with this. Remember when it was reported robbers now go about with POS devices to rob people of their cash? I hope this is not one them.

4. How are we sure the physical cash he's dishing out is not a proceed of an illegal activity and he's trying to circumvent the system to legally lodge the funds into his account? May be a stash of naira some politicians are try to now lodge genuinely into the banking system without raising suspicion? Someone needs to blow that whistle now ....something is amiss here! undecided

3. Is Shoprite, fuel stations and other outlets using POS stelaing your info?
4. Ahahahah, how are we sure the money in your pocket is not from illegal activity.

A sucker is born every minute.
Even banks verified employees engage in fraud, let alone a guy at a corner
with a POS. Use his service at your account's risk.

Yeye questions.

I am amazed at the level of ignorance displayed on this thread.

I know a lot of guys doing this business, the only difference is not at the front of an actual bank or ATM.

For example, my local government of origin has no bank and is 30km to a town that has about 3 banks and 50km to another town that has multiple banks. Both towns are in other LGAs.

One Igbo guy withdraws N5m from his bank acc and makes arrangement to keep safe in a local police station. Instead of people traveling to get ATM, they pay a token to get cash which the POS he has is a perfect tool to transfer money to his account. This process is just simply recycling the money in his account but each time he gets a commission.

In the town i live, on a salary days, festive periods, all ATMs will be emptied of cash. People travel as far as 100km to get cash. A lot of guys will withdraw cash during working hours and keep at secure locations doing such POS transactions.

I know a man who sells gas with a POS, he also does cash withdrawals which is helping him deposit his cash to the bank.

Yes, the business has risks, but to access your own bank Account, the ATM must have been issued by a bank.

i understand u sir. but not everything is supposed to be perceived from the negative side. u totally ignired the fact that the man is providing financial services to people who could have been stranded if not for the man.
Re: Man Sits At ATM ABU Zaria With POS, Gives Cash To People At Different Charges by bigtt76(f): 11:48am On Mar 22, 2018
Unfortunately ...its you who is naive here.

1. Yes he's in a University environment and I presume there are no cultists there right? Or the cultists there are the friendly ones?

2. Banks do not issue out POS devices to individuals except they have a registered business name and business location

3. Shoprite and Fuel Stations are legal and registered entity not one random guy sitting in front of an ATM without known identity. What happens if your transaction was declined and you were wrongly debited?

How do you complain to a bank that you transacted with one mallam (pardon me) in front of an ATM without a business name? I can see he's not giving his customers the stubs for the transaction sef.

May be you should do a search on how people's card details are stolen even through an ATM talkless of a POS device.

4. I work legally for my money so its not from illegal activity. This man may actually be doing a reverse money laundering the owners of the money cannot take it to the bank for some reason and are probably using the registered POS to deposit the money and from there it would be withdrawn back into use like its genuine.

In Eastern Europe, they don't mind charging your card but not drawing the cash because the target is your card numbers which they will end up selling on the dark web for people involved in card frauds.

Not yeye questions if you care to know. have a good day.

Trash.

1 How dare you think cultism exist openly in every University. If cultist can attack a guy with POS what stops them from attacking anyone using ATM
2. So an individual cannot own a business register POS and use it to make withdrawals. I know you type, you think everything is rocket science. This practice is very common here. Legal and valid.
3. How do you know he doesn't have any identify. Fallacy of hasty assumptions.
4. Reverse money laundering grin grin grin abeg stop this useless talk.


I dey office jare, i have work to do. Go and seek knowledge and stop parading ignorance on a public platform.
