Is it not time to put an end to POS operations?
These people do more harm than good to citizens.

The POS terminal and operator can be located, even if the operator is mobile. All the terminals have their IDs and the withdrawal information is in her bank.

Again, you never can trust some bank officials. Some crooked elements work in the bank, collaborating with external criminals to steal from people’s accounts.
she either suffered a card swap by a thief who posed to assist her on the terminal or her card came out when she went to complain. No bank staff will indulge in such nonsense.

There are actually spoof electronics that can be attached to atm machine. It reads your code and and seize your card.Probably that technology is now in Nigeria. So check well before inserting atm card. Cause even if they have her card, how did they guess her pin?

What if at the point of operating the ATM, one unscruplous being pretended to tried to assist the woman while peeping her PIN then distract her to swap the ATM card with a reported or lost ATM card then the ATM Terminal trapped the card as a result of the swapped card already reported lost. Then the unscrupulous being took the card and the PIN to a nearest POS Agent to.withdraw the money in the account since he/she already has the woman's ATM card and PIN. We need to be sure of what happen at the scene.

Foolish woman.

Card swappers assisted her and took her card and pin, deceiving her that the card gas been seized by the ATM.

The bank will show her cctv footage of how the card was swapped and the foolish woman will see her folly.

If there's a check by your narrative and the card was seized for 10 minutes, the bank will still be held responsible.

All these can be check from the backend and even CCTV.

Trace where the money was withdrawn. if it was at the Atm or pos or online. whichever the case the security men have some explaining to do.

The Atm might have a bug device installed on it.

How did the person know her Password.
It isn't even difficult to decode what happened. She interacted with someone who switched her card. she inserted the switched card and entered her password which of course was wrong, but because she was sure of her password she inserted it twice and the scammer's card was seized. she went to report and the scammer withdrew her money and left

Her card was switched by a scammer, simple! She talked with a scammer at the POS terminal who switched her card.

The bank is responsible for it, very irresponsible lots
Not the bank but someone next to her on the queue or bank security guy at ATM.

I once saw a card rejected by the ATM when I wanted to withdraw that evening. I called the security guy in the bank and gave it to him.

BTW,who still goes to the ATM to make withdrawals these days?,when POS vendors are everywhere? Even transferring of funds have made it easy for Nigerians.......

I can't even remember the last time I visited an ATM stand,even bank let alone to witness such nonsense

I hardly use POS for any transaction. All my cash withdrawals are via ATM and I have many around my office vicinity.

I can’t even remember the last time I patronised a POS vendor.

Woman in Tears as ₦243K Vanishes 20 Minutes After ATM Seizes Card —Inside Job Suspected?

A woman was filmed crying uncontrollably while a crowd watched, refusing to be consoled after the money her husband gave her for shop rent was wiped from her account.

According to reports, her bank’s ATM seized her card while she was trying to withdraw cash. She went inside to report the issue to the bank staff, but they told her to return the following Monday to retrieve it. However, just 20 minutes later, over ₦240,000 was withdrawn from her account via a POS terminal.

The question is, who is behind the withdrawal, considering that her ATM card was still stuck in the machine? Obviously, someone must have gained access to the card. Since this happened within just 20 minutes of her card getting stuck, it is safe to assume that the person behind the withdrawal is an insider at the bank, possibly using a POS machine located inside the bank or within its premises.

What are your thoughts on this? Please drop your advice in the comments!

ogah you talk like a novies, how does using your personal ATM concerned security? Is security the one paying customer? You better be enlight, what happened most cases is that, some customer seek the help of a total stranger instead of conduct a security man there, at the process the strange person now swap their card with damage card inside the ATM and the strange person will make them believe that the ATM card is stuck in the ATM

Are you not shocked by how many daft people that exists here jumping to conclusions that it's the bank. Calling bankers all sorts of names when this is a clear case of card swap scam.
Re: Woman In Tears As ₦243K Vanishes 20 Minutes After ATM Seizes Card(photos/video) by Oladapo89: 5:10pm On Feb 08, 2025
What happened was that someone at the ATM gallery standing behind the woman swapped her card. This is not the first time something like is happening. The woman might be struggling to use the ATM and the person behind her seeing her struggling to operate the machine will comes close to assist by telling the woman to enter her PIN, after entering her PIN the guy will press cancel and remove d card and swap it with blocked Atm card. When inserting d blocked Atm card into d machine, d machine will display a notice on the screen that the card has blocked and it will seize it. It's not security guy or the bank that withdrew her money. It was due to ignorance. The woman should go to her bank on Monday so dat they can show her CCTV footage.

Stingy people do. They will not want to pay POS charge.
Many of the learnt the hard way later.

It happened to one of my guy in Benin. His was a sorry case. One guy managed to swap his card as they were trying trying their luck with the machine due to network or God knows what.

All he told me was, let's go the ATM didn't work.

We had hardly gotten home when alerts start rolling in.

Before we could make it to the bank, 190k is gone and d criminal used the remaining 2k to buy card.

Meanwhile he would have collected the needed 30k from POS jejely but avoiding charges

She has no reasons to cry if her card was seized by the machine.

Bank don't returned seize card, they will ask you to get new one.

Her card was with the bank, so the bank are fully responsible and will pay her back every penny.

Withdrawal from POS means the withdrawal was with the card.
On poin. You are right.

Some PIN are easily guessed, in most part of the north the ATM PINs is usually 1234, 0000 (any repetitive numbers aside 0) or even the DOB of the account owners.
