did you grant him access to your account?
if you did not, then what did he do?

That's more of an exploit, not a hack...

As long has he can't do it remotely, it's just him exploiting vulnerabilities. There's a difference.

He said it himself, that he needs to be able to lay hands on the device.

All the same , we shaaa call everything hacking.

Everyone can have access to your account provided he has your phone number or ATM card linked to your account. That's not Hacking, that's stealing. He exploited the vulnerabilities which everyone knows to steal from you.

They just need your BVN which anyone can easily get by dialing certain number on your registered sim

Lie. There is no way bvn can reveal your bank account password. Even bank managers can't get access to your password. The story is full of crap

Everyone should lock their sim cards. As for me, I locked my sim a long time ago. So even if you put it in another phone or switch off the phone, you will need to enter a code.

And it only 3 wrong attempt for MTN to block it.

This is wise advice

Write your BVN on Twitter and see if all the money in your bank account won’t disappear within 30min

Even if Sim card is used in another phone, you still need password to access a bank account for any transaction except maybe self recharge. I wont be surprised if the guy alleges in court that the police wrote the statement and forced him to sign it.

Story, what about the customer's pin?
How do you by-pass it?
The story get k-leg, moreover we don't even expect him to open up the real method just like that

I guess the interviewer self is novice.. How do they bypass the transfer pin or atm pin depending on bank.
with that simple method the suspect said can only be used for self recharge card.

That's one smart criminal there.

I love his type.

Just with a little reorientation, he will turn away from his bad ways and start using his programming skills to help humanity.
