Blackpearlous:

This statement shows how mannerless you are.

OK I apologize, but I feel if one is not comfortable with using an atm they should queue on the banking floor rather than divulging their card information to a total stranger.

See the babe dey cry like baby...I'm very sure she was extremely happy when the guy dey pump her the cash now she is trying to claim innocent...

She will be released without charge because she didn't commit any crime.

See it's different in your case.

Legally, nobody should have 26 million in cash without a good reason. So in that instance, you acted right.

But in this case, no law stops anybody from receiving 300k.

Can't you send 300k to your mother or friend today and not reveal the source of the money?

If you happen to have stolen the money, should your mother/friend be in handcuffs in a police cell suffering for it?

Like I said, the girl was oblivios to the source of the money, or so the story says.

As long as the girl agrees to repay the money sent to her, and nothing ties her to the money, she should be set free.

How will you send money to your mother from a a third parties account and not your own account? the money was transferred to the lady not from his account but from a third parties account. How did he come about the account details to be able to transfer such amount. Whichever way you twist it she is still complicit In the crime.

steal money to spend on a facebook girlfriend..some guys are just completely useless .and what to learn from this is if going to the atm to withdraw dont give ur card to another person to help u out.alert the security anytime u have problem with ur atm card.

I'm not twisting anything.

I don't see the problem. There are several third-party money transfer agents. It's not an indication of fraud in and itself.

Thanks for the explanation. I also agree with you on the bolded part.

Good to discuss with you. Have a prosperous and blessed year.

An ATM card thief has been nabbed in a hotel he lodged in with his girlfriend.

The suspect got quite unlucky after he stole an ATM card from an unsuspecting elderly citizen from whose account he withdrew over N500k while posing as a policeman.

He was nabbed after he made a transfer with the ATM card in a hotel he lodged in near his victim's house.

Narrating how the suspect withdrew over N500K from her mother's account, Vivian Emesaraonye Dimgba wrote;

My mum was duped of 500k last night. She went to the Atm, tried to put her pin, it wasnt working. She saw a young man standing behind her, and turned to him to complain or vent basically. Feigning concern, he asked to assist her try again. Being so trusting herself, she gave him the card. He put it, and told her the Atm card was stuck, and that she needed to go inside the bank and tell them. She went to the security man, since the bank was already closed and did just that. By the time she came out, the man already left. Oh, he told her he was a policeman.

Fast forward to 12 midnight, she got her first transfer alert 300k. Then 100k..until there was only 30k left in the account. She got dressed, then drove to town with my dad, and made a police report. But they couldn't do much, since they were not sure the Atm terminal he made the transfer from.

At about 1am, he made another transfer. But this time through a POS machine. Eastgate Hotel. Less than 15 minutes walk from my house. He paid for the room, and ordered food as well. We called back the police men, told them of our findings and they met us at the hotel in less than 30 minutes.

They got into the hotel, checked the person who lodged in at the time the POS sent the alert. The print-out they had corresponded with my mum's Atm card number. That was how we apprehended him with the girl he made the transfer of the first 300k to. She allegedly was meeting him for the first time yesterday, but they've been friends on Facebook for a while. We also recovered some Atm cards, which included my mum's card , and the printout he used for the transactions.

Anyway, they are both cooling their heels in the holding cell and will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

I must commend the squad for their timely intervention. After today, my perception of the Nigerian police is a bit different..

Times are strange. Be aware!

Upon being asked to release the lady who the suspect made a transfer of N300k to, Vivian wrote in a rejoinder post;



The Atm cards. I blurred the cards as not to further expose the owners . The diamond access card is my mum's. You can see the receipt he used for the last transaction. I still don't know why he didn't pay with cash, because he obviously had some of the money he withdrew from the Atm.

I guess it was greed. 7k was what gave him out. I feel no sympathy for him. My mum is a high blood pressure sufferer. Close your eyes for a minute and imagine her state now. The money isn't hers either. It was transfered from dad's business contact for a surveying work he was suposed to carry out for his client. I would've refunded 500k, for no just cause.

Those of you who feel like the girl is innocent, did you see where I used the word "allegedly?" until proven otherwise.. She's a thief. She's complicit. And how is she supposed to prove that she's innocent. ?

Finally, stop Inboxing me to release the girl. Do I look like the police ? Who takes 300k from a random stranger? If my mum had slumped last night, all I would've gotten is rest in peace. I'll block anyone who mildly suggests the girl is innocent. Not unless you're privy to the complete details of the case, your opinion is not needed.

Thank you.

thank God he was caught before doing more damage. But I think you shouldn't have given the full detail of how he was caught. Who knows someone somewhere with this kind of character may want to use same medium for his future transaction. You even advised and wondered (why he uses the POS).

I wish you dont explain the mistake he made that got him arrested because we have his mate in this forum. This lazy youth too will be shouting corruption is our problem.

true..love your response

edoairways:

I want to believe you have a mother

my apologies for the insult.

Sixfeetbelle:


You can't say that about her. It is very inappropriate. He posed as a policeman which in any normal setting should be a trustworthy person. The same applies to all these bank security men that help out the elderly with atm issues on a daily basis. The be and end of it all is that it can happen to anybody.

Rightly said, please accept my sincere apologies this was misplaced and totally out of character.

Young me these days are lazy!

@liltee123 The Investigation need not take long to know if the lady is innocent or not , our system is so terrible and everyone is so so insensitive , under Nigerian Law , you do not have to prove your innocence , If the lady does not know anything about the crime , she is damn innocent , to continue keeping her in jail after a brief interrogation in itself is injustice and thousands of Nigerians are suffering in jail for a crime they did not commit because of stupidity of the Nigerian police. if she is innocent and she suffers for no just cause , las las God will punish you and your mother for letting an innocent lady suffer . it is called Karma. Part of the reason why Nigeria is where we are today is punishing innocent people. last last , Karma go still kill all of una.

boss1310:
have you noticed that thieves do look alike as if na the same mama born them

Lol. That na y dem be thieves

Why is she in handcuffs? She didn't steal the ATM card. In Nigeria you are guilty until proven innocent. So sad.

uvie66:
Long and short of the story your mother is a mugu.

You are definitely insane!

Beedehmee:
The guy was about to knack, you should've given him 2 hour before calling the police.

He can knack (or be knacked) in jail...

healthlife:

She’s under ARREST, not pronounced guilty...

Only a court can rule on guilt or non-guilt (NOT innocence) of a suspect.
But police arrest involves being place under restraint and taken into custody.

healthlife:

Btw, she does not have to have physically stolen the card to be guilty of an offense...
Knowingly receiving the proceeds of theft or being an accomplice after the fact is a criminal offense.

But of course those are issues of fact to be established in a court of law.

While I actually think that she could well be factually innocent...
There’s nothing legally wrong with taking her into custody until arraignment.

She is a criminal SUSPECT after all...
But it’s a bailable offense, so she can get a police (administrative) bail pronto.
