How Bank Officials Withdrew My Money Through Swallowed ATM Card by infocabal(m): 8:52am On Jun 06, 2018
Good day my fellow Nairalanders.

I have been hearing of this issue, I didn't believe until it happened to me last week.

I went to withdraw money from Diamond Bank ATM in Gwagwalada, Abuja around 9pm. When it was my turn, I slotted in my ATM card entered my Pin and entered the amount of withdrawal. Only for the Machine to be hang, I was then pressing the red button so it reject my card but alas, it Swallowed my Card.

So disappointed, I told the security man, he said there is nothing can be done, that I should go to my bank which is first Bank to get another ATM card.

I went home that night only for me to be seeing alert of N20,065 four times... And 15,065 once.

And the withdrawal location is in Wuse 2, which is about 50km away from Gwagwalada. My account was emptied and only me know my PIN. Even my wife doesn't know it.

So the next morning I went to first Bank to complain about the matter, and they told me someone withdrew the money in another location. I told them how possible is that? When
1. Am the only one that know my PIN
2. The location of withdrawal is 50mins away and I got alert less than that time.
3. The card was swallowed up by Diamond bank ATM and I still waited for it to come out but it didn't.

Infact, the customer care lady said, 2 other people came to complain about the same incident from the same location where my ATM was swallowed.

I was told to visit Diamond bank or the Police.
Quickly I went to police station to lay my complain.
Only for the DPO to tell me to bring N5, 000 to write letter to the bank.
And I told him, where will i get the money from, when they have withdrew all the money in my account.

To cut the long story short, we are still on the matter, I was even made to know that bank officials connive to criminals to get swallowed atm card and correlating PIN, don't really know how true this is.

It's becoming a rampant case gradually, rhetoric relevant authority should be informed please.

First of all, the atm room has dual control. Meaning there must be 2 staff that go into the atm room and reload cash or retrieve trapped cards. Secondly, the customer service personnel is a big novice! No trained customer service personnel should give a bad example of a situation. He or she is the good face of the bank. Thirdly, believe me, since this has gotten to nairaland, this issue would be investigated immediately by the bank. You can also call 07003000000. Diamond bank always thrives for a positive image. Just know that heads would roll sha for this report. But it is not your business. Yours is to get your money returned and it would. You should have also called your bank immediately to block the card immediately. Some banks like Diamond have a feature on their mobile apps to temporarily block cards. Lastly, people saying the security guard needs to be questioned, security personnels do not have access to the atm room. Unless your atm card was later ejected after you left. There are some instances that the atm card still comes out and the customer might have already left the premises.

Op is an illiterate cheesy

The machine trapped ur card and u couldn’t just use a shortcode to block it instantly? U do knowna trapped card can’t be retrieved right? Now u have lost over 50k instead of just 1k for a new card.

Hey! Diamond bank!
Get a good lawyer and you will be compensated with better money. I've seen a similar case with anoda bank and they were sued for 100m and the matter still dey court the lawyer good die ayam 98% sure he will win.

Ifbthe bank wants to help you, its not a hard thing they can trace the whole matter to the culprit but them go wan form I dont care until you vex scatter their office before them go standup

The word is retracted.

Are you sure it didn't eject your card after you left?

This is more serious than I thought.
Follow it up then. You have to write formally to CBN.

No bank official withdrew your money.
I suspect a skimming device was on that ATM you inserted your card, the fraudster got access to both your card and your pin. Google "skimming" to know better what probably happened to you.

Main suspect is the guard. They have the access to help you retrieve your card from the ATM if stuck. Guess this one yard that grant to perpetuate misdeeds.
Re: How Bank Officials Withdrew My Money Through Swallowed ATM Card by PresidentAtiku(m): 11:39am On Jun 06, 2018
ATM custodian, security men or you either left the card on the ATM and someone helped himself.

The question becomes, how did they get your PIN

Installed PIN pad
