Eweeeyyyy!

That was how one man called me directly on phone and asked me to call my BVN out or other account details of mine so he'd help me activate my new UBA account (Truly I opened an account so it was convincing that he works for them, because how else did he know I just opened an account?)

I asked him to end the call while I look for my BVN and have him call me back to call it out for him, just then, my eyes opened, banks don't ask you to send sensitive details, besides, I filled my BVN on the form, so why is he asking again..

I quickly tossed his number into Blacklist, my guy call tire

Be careful. Some bankers are working with crooks.

Don't even try it. Your identity has been stolen and used to open an account.

Beware of fraudsters. Was it your name they used in opening the account?

Better protect your identity. Change your email password, your ATM code and online banking code.
Don't waste time to call Customer service but be careful not divulge sensitive information to he/she. Some bankers are confirmed Scammers

Go do so only if you remembered to have done any account opening exercise with the bank.

Must you people bring everything to Nairaland ?

They asked you to visit any branch of GTB, where you will be able to get more authentic info on weather it's scam or real, you deliberately and lazily refused. Instead you run to Nairaland asking the wrong people.

Scammers are upgrading because they are now working with bankers.

With the rate of joblessness in the society, who knows the type of dubious characters that now work in banks.
