Why won't a reasonable person lock his SIM card I have been locking my SIM even before the days of internet banking.

ALWAYS LOCK YOUR SIM CARD!!!

How do one lock SIM?

Also, what happens when SIM is locked, can people still reach the person's phone number via call?

What happens generally when SIM is locked (benefit and disadvantages)? Thanks.

Dhavido:
I've always locked my alert SIM card since I saw something like this last year, let's spread the word for others to learn and lock their SIM cards as against locking the phone

BabaIbo:
Story, what about the customer's pin?
How do you by-pass it?
The story get k-leg, moreover we don't even expect him to open up the real method just like that

pins can always be changed.....


what u should be after now is locking the sim cards

davillian:
1) your sim card connected to your bank should be kept safe ( mine doesn't leave the house )
2) lock your sim card
3) once you loose your phone that contains your bank account sim. Block the acc immediately.
4) I have 1 ATM card and have 3 bank acc.
Only 1 account has ATM card and used for online payment etc.
I keep a maximum of 10k in the account with card.
I just transfer what I need to the account with ATM card from the account without ATM card .

A friend lost his phone. He has two bank accounst; one is connected to his MasterCard. He doesn't keep money in the card-conneced account.

The thief who stole the phone was able to buy recharge card with the account that had money in it.

My friend quickly went to recover the line before more withdrawals were made.

femi4:
Thank God, I stopped using mobile banking

it does not stop their operations

as far as u have an account with a bank and that bank has an online code


once they try any bank code on ur phone and it works, they can do whatever they want to do

DonMarkuzi:


Hacking encompasses a lot more than Ur conventional stereotype.

Which you know nothing about.

Just believe the fairy tale and let me be.

Just imagine he has his life savings in that account
I went to the ATM one weekend one idiot walked up to me saying my friend wants to transfer money for me and I dont have ATM card
He said I should give him my account number so the friend can transfer into it .
My brain just signal red red red.
stolen founds so police go come carry me

Adinije:
Everyone should lock their sim cards. As for me, I locked my sim a long time ago. So even if you put it in another phone or switch off the phone, you will need to enter a code.

And it only takes 3 wrong attempt for MTN to block it.

And entering wrong PUK ten times when trying to unblock it will make one lose the ownership of the line forever! That's why I stopped using it because my kids almost caused that! May be I should go back to using it

No, there's still PUK2 number I think. But only MTN has that and can use it to unlock it. You will have to visit their office to get PUK2 unlocked.

How can i lock my sim ?

Mynd44:


Use your sim to reset your email password and tell your bank you forgot your password and need a new one

That means he needs your email where you linked your bank account too. Think about that, knowing fully well your android where you have such banking app or email is locked.

I lock my sim already and know it is connected to my account. That 4th step is one i have in mind but havent done yet.

Why will you enter wrong PUK?
Just write down your PUK somewhere.

Me self don't know my PUK. But whenever I lock myself out, I will call MTN and they will give me the PUK after asking me millions of questions.

nairalee:

you the mind them. Sakamanje story. Even after password, my bank will even ask for the last 4 digits of the ATM card if mobile transfer exceeds a particular amount. The guy never confess finish

Hmmm don't see how this can work with zenith bank's platforms though, they use the last 6 digits of ATM card to verify first transactions so even if you sign up afresh, u would still need to input last 6 digits of d ATM number
