I read this with keen interest this morning . This issue may also be happening in other banks too , not just only in Zenith Bank . Very very scary now !
Recently I heard same story of a friend whose sister was a victim of unknown debit transactions . But , why are banks not so secured in terms of transactions ?
The regulators , which is central bank must hold this banks accountable and be made to pay customers the money that they lost . ATM stuffs related matters are a thing of the past today in the western world . Otherwise , you are easily tracked and caught . Even when you misplace your debit card . The debit cards are tied to phone numbers !
The criminals doing this stuff in the western world must have flocked back home to take advantage of the banks in Nigeria . Too bad sha .
The bank should pay your money back . They have no excuse not to .
Sorry , Kulrunnins .

*Crime alert ! Crime alert !! Crime alert !!!*
The Nigerian public must be alerted to a new banking cybercrime trending today . It is my understanding that bank officials do collect customers ATM card information and give it out to their criminal friends to defraud customers , thereby breaching bank and customer's confidentiality agreement .
These cyber criminal mostly use this information to do online transactions today . They might use your money online to buy bitcoin , book hotel reservations abroad , do online purchases abroad . ETCs
And, when you go to the bank to lodge a complaint the customer care attendant will place you in a cross-road of confusion by telling the customer that she/he may have exposed her ATM card to the criminal . Precisely the statement you get is ,"your ATM card has been compromised" . This is the latest trend within the banking institutions today .
This new techniques by rats within banks doesn't come as a surprise to me . Reason being that , in the past , we have heard of cases where bank officials connives with criminals such that when customers come into the bank to make a huge withdrawals , this bank officials inform their criminal friends that intercept and Rob innocent customers of their monies while driving out of the bank .
This was why at a time cashers in some banks were not allowed to use mobile phones while on duty . Rats in banks is a burden today and this poses a great risk to all users of ATM cards .
Nigerians must be on the alert and watchout for this trend .

Lesson for banks : There should be a process that should requires a security pass through a customer's phone number linked to that account before access to anything online activities is granted by the banks for every transaction . They must build a safety wall for the customer otherwise , Nigerians will be at the mercies of cubercriminals in and outside the bank .
This is the only way out of this cybercrime . Moreso , the CBN cashless policy would be a disaster !
