How Fake 'Customer Care' Withdrew ₦500k From My Dad's Account After A Phone Call by Aflix(m): 2:58pm On Mar 21, 2021 |
Can Money Sent To Fraudsters Be Gotten Back? My dad called me recently to tell me about how he was defrauded. He told me that a guy called him and told him that he is a customer care personnel from the bank he uses and that his account has some issues, so he was asked to send his details which he did. After sending it, they started transferring the money in the account to another account and he had to rush to a POS stand to transfer the rest to his other account. They had transferred close to #500,000 before he was able to do this. So, I'm here to ask if anybody has experienced this and has been able to retrieve his/her money. Please any reasonable advice is welcomed and please no insults. 14 Likes 5 Shares |

To get his money back he has to spend more.. The problem in Nigeria is too much.. cuz the fraudsters must have withdrawn the money from their own end Normally the process should be very easy since he can easily trace the account number where the money was wired to.. but the bankers themselves will make it difficult for him( sometimes these fraudsters work with bank officials ).. With BVN they can easily fetch the profile of the account and even trace the individual down to his living room.. (BVN is linked to almost everything here, National I.D, Passport, SIM card etc) All this requires money and sometimes you may even spend more than you lost to the criminals.. Court affidavit, court order are the first step to start with 111 Likes 9 Shares |

If the money is still in the fraudsters account, you can approach the fraudsters bank to put a post no debit on the account. Once this is successfully achieved then you must obtain a court order to reverse the funds to your account. 38 Likes 3 Shares |

It won't b difficult tracing them nd apprehending the fraudsters buh banks seems to b protecting them. Reporting to ur bank to find out the recipient/ the account the cash was transferred to buh ur bank will frustrate u. Its like the banks shield those criminals. 11 Likes |

Sorry for your dad's loss. Let us young people still orientate our elderly parents about the tactics of these fraudsters. The road to recovery is possible but very stressful. Just get to the bank first sha. 15 Likes 1 Share |

Are you sure they transferred it to another account or they made purchases with it cos those guys no longer transfer to another account? Anyway, you should have told your aged parents about all these things and teach them how never to fall for them. They called my mum same week I told her about it. She would have been scammed if I didn't tell her about it earlier. 8 Likes 1 Share |

Yes. It can be recovered. And don't be bothered about the comments above saying it will cost you more. Firstly, get the account number the funds were transferred to. Go to any magistrate court, make sure you see the registrar. Give him/her the full story. TELL THEM YOU WANT A COURT ORDER. You will pay for this court order. 10% of the money to be recovered. You probably will get the court order tomorrow. When you have it with you, do a photocopy and serve the original to the bank your dad's monies were transferred. I'm pretty sure the branch manager will PND the account. Now, go to any police station, meet with the DPO. Just tell the constables at the counter you have a document for the DPO. At the DPOs, explain the entire situation and tell him you want A POLICE REPORT. You will most likely be connected to the state CID department. Meanwhile, details of the fraudulent transfer would have been collected from you. Rapport with the CID personnel. When you have Police Report, photocopy and serve the bank the original. You and your dad should visit his bank and put things back in order coz the account is already compromised. When.you get to the bank, they'll put you through. The account that hosted your dad's money will be blocked and put on lien. Any amount that comes in will be held and can not be withdrawn. The account owner, will be picked up. He'll lead the police to the person that made the transfer. All of these can happen, this week. 83 Likes 15 Shares |
