most of these fintechs start-ups just emphasize on development and creating a brand, they don't care about security.

many of their products are venerable to attacks and which can affect their customers.

I've audited many of them, idont have mind to do evil but I'm going to prove a point to one of these fintechs.
most of them has lossed back end

You dey into cyber security?

Evident are there on how the money was moved. Can you read?

It's a pity we do not hav strong financial security system. Those thieves would have been picked up easily


What make it hard to detect is that most of the bank accounts yahoo guys used are not assign to a bvn.

The Yahoo boys who hacked Flutter wave and stole 2.9 billion naira from the fintech unicorn company would probably be chilling at Transcorp Hotel with their babes that love dating Yahoo Boys or Inspecting a property in Lekki with payment to be transferred once he is satisfied with the property because laundering stolen money on real estate is the easiest way to launder illicit funds.

For the Yahoo boys involved, they don hammer, and God don butter their bread.

But for the organization (Flutterwave) that lost the customer funds, this is a very difficult period for them as they try to mitigate the damage and manage the ugly situation they found themselves in.

This brings me to this:

God will punish anyone who tries to legitimize Yahoo going forward by calling it a hustle.

Yahoo is not a hustle.

You are a thief who will meet his or her miserable and ignoble end and Waterloo soon. I build and sell Lithium Iron Phosphate battery and powerbank for Laptop, Starlink and home inverter. Tested and trusted.
Bro the usual naija yahoo boys can’t pull this off. Whoever is behind the hack must be a cyber security expert.... They need to work on their vulnerabilities

Loll, flutter wave's revenue in 2022 was $30 million. N2.9 billion naira is a set back but it won't stop anything. They can be sponsoring bbnaija every year, they are a financial institution, the money would keep on flowing. They spent 1b naira each year sponsoring bbnaija, you think a 2.9b theft would shake them?
money is money,1kobo that goes out without bn accounted for is a loss and can affect in one way or the other.

How would it affect when 2.9billion naira is around $5 million dollars? They make that in a month. Like I said, it's just a set back.

With this, and the loss they recorded sponsoring this year's Big Brother, they definitely won't be sponsoring future BBNaija shows

Payporte comes to my mind
I strongly feel they suffered a huge loss too hence they backed out
