I Have Just Been Scammed!!!! by Xilsbridalhouse(op): 8:37pm On Mar 26, 2021
I’m in so much tears right now!!!! Look at me just trying to do my business, and I just got scammed! Oh God tried to stop me but I wasn’t conscious enough!

It started with my card being declined and I reached out to Zenith bank on Twitter. I was told you add up a number on WhatsApp to chat with their customer care. I did and everything looked professional, honestly I had no idea that I was about to be scammed!

The scammer asked for my card details which I told him no, but he assured me that he is not a scammer. I sent it, but the card still didn’t work so I transferred my money to my dad’s account hoping to use his card, but the customer care kept disturbing me that they want to help me resolve it. I had to beg my dad to transfer back but he kept forgetting to transfer back and I was pissed!!!! I kept calling for hours till he finally did tonight and the customer care wiped off my account after I sent the OTP codes to him foolishly, thinking I was chatting with their staff!

After my account got wiped off, it was then I realized the mention on my Twitter was from a dorm account on Twitter!

I am in so much pains guys!

Scammers why did you do this to us?

Tell me, if something bad befalls your family will you be happyhuh

I take all the blame...I have always been a security conscious person, but today .....


Please learn from my mistake.


I’m in so much tears right now.

@op you have to be more careful this time around, the scam in that country is too much, I also lost 700k few years ago to a stupid scammer, this is why am always conscious of what I do these days, I won't repeat the silly mistake I made back then, thank God your own money isn't up to mine, because you would have felt it deeply..

When my phone was stolen last week and I had to start reactivating my banking apps all over again, Access bank stressed my life so much that I wanted dump the stupid bank and open a new account with FCMB. I later came to realize that all their protocols are for our own security at the end of the day. NEVER give out your sensitive banking details over the phone and for goodness sake, utilize the internet for research on the various legitimate communication channels used by various banks.

They have tried to do the same to my parents but thankfully they always call me or my sibse whenever they receive a a message or a call they are not sure of, and 9 out of 10 those messages turn out to be scams. Be wise, people.

❌A modern young young nigerian
falling for such a simple scam.

❌Banks always warn that they will
never ask customers for their card
details, but stubborn customers like
you think they know better.

When you are too 'smart' to learn the
easy way, you will be forced to learn
the hard way.

❌Mugu fall, guy men wack!!

If there is nothing you learnt, learn that all banks (even mfbs) use verified profiles on social media.

The phone number you quoted is tied to an unverified profile

Sorry bro.
Banks don't even ask for your full Card Digits.
Experience is the best teacher, no one is above scamming.
Just don't repeat same mistakes

Open a complaint at the Antifraud unit of your Bank, though the bank would sluggishly attend to it, sometimes I feel our banks encourages fraud because of how they attend to fraud cases.
