Please I need your advice, during the presidential election period, I came across a page on Facebook that claims that Hon. Atiku Abubarkar is giving away the sum of 250k to empower Nigerian youth.

They claim we will receive the money if we drop our phone number and account number.

So I dropped my polaris bank account and a phone number different from the one I use for the account registration.

Now they are calling me everyday demanding for the phone number through which I receive bank alert.

So I am just wondering, is it possible for somebody to transfer money from your bank account digitally using your phone number and account number ?

Dont try it

very well, that"s how they transfered one man's 5m after blocking his fone number and they went to re register it. They wire him 5m using POS. So, pls don't try it at all.

Na wao, people still fall for the very very cheap scams even at this age. I can't believe it
Block their number or post it here so everyone will be aware of the scam number
