Help, A Friend Got Scammed by Vyzz: 12:30pm On Mar 10, 2021
Good Afternoon.

So let me be brief...


A friend of mine called this afternoon crying about how she got a 10,000naira debit alert and before she could rush to the nearest POS office to withdraw the remaining she got several other alerts and all the money in her bank account cleared....


The Guy who took it withdrew to the last kobo as the last alert she got was 18naira...

Obviously, she was with her ATM CARD all these while so I don't know...
Is there anything her bank could do for her?... Like catching the scammer.

1. Visit the bank, report to the fraud unit of the bank


2. Have the ATM blocked


3. Determine through the means her account was accessed


4. Change her Internet banking account information



Thanks boss...


That means there is no way she can retrieve the money?...

She needs to start the process. The funds can be retrieved based on the information the bank fraud unit tells her to do.

She should have used the emergency block code when she received the first alert.
