Hi Guys,

This is the story.

I woke up with the thought of a friend that reached out to me for assistance and was planning on transferring money to the individual before I start my day, my phone wasn't at my arm's length so I decided to wait till I wake up fully(im still resting mode).

It was then I got a notification, I casually stood up to check then I saw a debit of all the money in my acct I thought it was a joke or I wasn't seeing well or it was an old notification.

It took two mins for it to dawn on me, I immediately got dressed and ran to the bank to block my atm or something and started making calls like a mad woman.

Eventually, I got to know that it was a site I bought something from yesterday that accessed my details and cleared my account.

Bank can't get my money back, I have sent emails to the site no response.

I used to read about it happening to people now it has happened to me.

This is what I have learnt from the experience- Make due diligence to run background checks on foreign (even local sites that you want to make payments on).

Plus I think Insurance companies need to start internet insurance or something. Another plus OTP's are important! I didn't get any.

The conclusion BE VERY CAUTIOUS!!!





P.S - Please share your experience if you have gotten your money back after this kind of experience because even though im typing English my heart is very very heavy and im not smiling at all! I would really appreciate the help.

Name of site

Sorry

Name of site

In all transparency, I don't know the site but I know their Instagram handle, found them through an ad. A study plan thing. I don't want to drop their handle because I have bombarded their page with a scam alert thing and I am trying to stay anonymous. I hope you understand.

Thanks for asking.

What is the name of this site?

Why open thread, when you are not ready to give away the name of the site. Do you want them to continue scamming others?

Sorry OP.

But you need koboko for still trying to protect their image/reputation after wiping ur account

You no serious oo

What is the name of the site ?

People will just format (lie Muhammad) on this platform and wanted traffic especially on SUNDAY.

I had similar experience last year but my fund was retrieved after 2 months.
Below is what I did
I tweet my bank with the complaint and proof. I was told to give them 90days but to my surprise, i got a refund after seventy something days.
Going inside bank hall to Lodge complain doesn't add up because most of the staff there doesn't know the procedure.
My fear in your own case now is that Twitter has been banned.
You can try all other social media available to Lodge your complain. Something good night come out of it.

And this why scammers succeed in Nigeria. None of you victims are ready to talk or take action.

A site scams you of everything and you keep their info private.

The thing has happened to me before but I got my money after a month cos unlike you, i talk plenty.

Why don't you mention the site to warn others?
Sorry sha.

If you cannot reveal the scam site, you shouldnt have bothered opening a topic
