FantasticJ:Not necessarily, I had the same issue last year, my bag was snatched and it had my atm card and phone. The thiefs used the last four digit and my phone to transfer money out. 1 Like |

This is why it is always advisable to password your sim. Clearly his sim was taken out of the passworded stolen phone into another phone to carry out the act, Had it been his sim was pin passworded, that would have been the dead end once they tried to gain access 3 times and failed. 3 Likes |

Enskynelson:its very possible when the sim is tied your BVN, it is directly link to all your bank accounts. The only way to protect yourself from such con act is pin password your SIM not only your phone. 1 Like 1 Share |

aaronson:Most times what they do is to request for the bvn of the user.(this works on mtn..... Dont know about others) Then they change the ussd pin of that user and boom... The money is gone. Just request your bank deactivate ussd transaction to be safe. 1 Like |

I should bookmark your response. Let me back you up a little more, if the complainant puts this your submission into action and does not see his money back he shouldn't greet me again. 2 Likes |

Greenbullet: This is not limited to the first bank...It happened to my wife as well...Her phone was stolen inside a commercial bus last year in the late evening on her way home from work. When she got home...I quickly took her ATM so as to go and transfer all the money to my own acxcount since the banks customer care didn't go. By the time i got there I they just deducted 1k from that acccount i was able to transfered the rest 83k BUT we forgot that her union bank would be affected as well...they successfully took 225k from the account in union bank. We approach the bank for report and what they can use to help us...till today they didn't do anything. We were asked to brink police report...we got it and submitted it in the bank and they promised to follow the case...they didn't do anything till today. Same at the police station...those one wants money before they do anything...we actually believed and gave them money to trace the issue but they didn't do anything...they were just playing us until we fed up.

Re: My Phone Was Stolen And My Firstbank Account Was Debited Without My Pin ! by einsteine(m): 10:46am On Feb 28, 2019 |
Stop blaming the bank. There is no way someone can move money from an account using USSD or Mobile app without knowing your pin. Chances are your friend stored his pin on the sim. Secondly, banks cannot help retrieve money without a legal order. What if you actually made the transfer and now you are lying in order to get the money back? They can't be sure so you need to get a legal order from the court in order to get the money back and the beneficiary account blocked. 2 Likes |

Skeendip: You need to know the ATM details to reset the pin. That's enough verification. |

Someone close to your friend SOLD the money. How? He has access to the victims ATM card and sim card. That's all you need to steal from someone's account using first bank. |
