Did u submit the court order yourself physically at the bank or u e-mail it to them. What do they mean by 'they can only link the bank'? I'm having the same issue presently, my court order is yet to come out, I just hope I get my money back from Opay and Paga.
I submitted physical but both of the banks turned it down and gave me a form to fill, after filling the forms both of them referred to the police should in case I was not satisfied with their processes

It doesn't make sense to involve the police in a case where a mere N200k is involved if your aim is to recover the money.

You can only do so if your real aim is to teach the thief/fraudster a lesson and wouldn't mind spending more than the N200k in question to achieve that aim.

In Nigeria, given how messed up the system is, you need to apply common sense in most of these things. Everything no be agidi 'due process'. The more you look, the less you see.
The aim is to know the identity of the fraudster because of speculation

Paga is now a safe haven for fraudster to operate and go scotfree. @poster, with your court order you should be able to get your money back from the bank, just ask for refund avd forget about the identity of the scammer. One has to be very careful these days because if u r scammed no policemen will help you recover your money, unless you too dupe someone to get your money back.
My brother, I did that but the bank refused, they said it is only my bank can write to them, then my bank said that they can only link the account

Powerhouse5050:
As enlightened as you are:

Don’t make any payment to the police without asking for the receipt, there would definitely not be a receipt and you also would have insisted on no receipt no payment.
My brother in this our country...police to issue you receipts for transaction?

And you still carry your hand pay N60k to criminals after losing N200k to a thief. Have you seen where police help a Nigerian track any lost item before, except the wealthy class or those with big connection. It is better to trust a bandit than a police.
Bro eyes don open now

Love800:
What do you mean by "exclusive" here pls?
As a private citizen, I don't have the right to tap/track the phone number of a suspect, that's why I didn't do it
Crime › Re: See How Police Treated Me When I Lost Money (photos) by Melagros(op): 10:45pm On Feb 17
gistray:
You say U be EXPERT.

Why didn't U do the tracking yourself?

Just be making noise up and down
Why are you defending the corrupt police? Don't you know there are procedures for everything?
Tracking of phone number is the exclusive duty of the police probably and other public security agencies

Thanks 4 sharing this. Same thing happened to me. I lost my new i-phone in a hotel. But in my case I think it is the hotel manager I gave the money to give police that kept the money. Mynd44, OAM4J, nlfpmod
What surprised me the most was when a female sergeant said that one day then go catch that thief wei thief your money don't worry, because then say 99days are for the thief and one day is for the owner God dey, then I asked her, is that what they taught you at the police training school during recruitment? That a criminal should commit havoc to the society 99times before we use prayer to apprehend him/her? What a shame

COMRADES, I will be happy if I can get that link on Nairaland that sometimes ago captioned Nigerian Police as the most corrupt/ worst police in Africa/ world

Sometime ago last year, the WhatsApp account of my friend whom I hold in high esteem was hacked, and the hacker defrauded me to the tune of 200k, after my conversation with my friend. Then I discovered that I was scammed!

However, in order to unravel the identity of the fraudster, then I reached out to the receiving bank and also to my bank for the account to be linked, after that, both of the banks advised me if I want to know who the fraudster is, I should make a formal entry at the police station since banks don't release the information of their customers to the third party. But, the police through the court order can produce who the criminal is

After harking to the piece of the advice, I went to the police station (Elelenwo station, picture below) and made an entry, then the IPO assured me that the fraudster will be apprehended, that this is a simple case, that there's an officer (a tracker) who specialises in handling such cases, so he linked me up with the so-called tracking officer (name below) then the so-called tracking officer booked an appointment with me. After asking of my bank details, he logged on to Google and brought out a certain phone number and claimed that this was the number which was used to defraud me, so to know who the culprit is, it will cost me: 15k (cash) for entry, plus 30k for mobilisation of officers, plus another 15k for a job well done. Without further ado, I made the payment

Do you know one funny thing? The so-called tracking officer didn't know that I am also an experienced car/vehicle tracker (I track vehicles for companies) anytime I asked for an update the fraudster in uniform would googled an image and sent it to me, not knowing that he is dealing with an expert, he would also be telling me cock and bull story blah blah blah blah

After all the drama, this year I decided to escalate the matter at the station, guess what, the police sided with their colleague. When I proved to them that I am also a tracker and their colleague is nothing but a fraudster and I threatened to take legal action against the fraudster in uniform, then all of them washed their hands off the case
