EFCC To Go After Those Using POS Machines Illegally by MoodNG: 10:12pm On Jun 13, 2019
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, is set to start a clampdown on the fraudulent use of Point Of Sale, POS Machines in the country.

This was disclosed by the Makurdi Zonal Head of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Johnson Babalola, in an interactive session with Regional Bank Managers at the EFCC Zonal office in Makurdi, Benue State on Thursday.

Speaking on behalf of the acting EFCC Chairman, Ibrahim Magu, he charged banks to ensure proper monitoring and strict compliance by those to whom they issue POS machines.

“We are having serious challenges with the banks giving POS machines to individuals with questionable characters and without proper documentation,” he said.Babalola pointed out that there was a need for some of the POS machines to be withdrawn from such individuals.

He also warned banks to adhere strictly to the Post-No-Debit (temporary freezing of account) order placed on banks found to be involved in suspicious transactions. “Default will not be tolerated,” he said.

He noted that it was unfortunate that some staff of banks were in the habit of giving prior notice to customers whose accounts were being placed on Post-No-Debit, thus “aiding and abetting crime and obstruction of justice, instead of assisting the Commission as stipulated by law”.

Babalola further urged the banks to “respond on time to the letters of investigations sent to them by the Commission”, stressing that prompt response will help in speedy dispensation of cases.

“You need to always report any suspicious transactions as required by law,” he added.

All of you above me, is it that you just want to appear on FP or what because you guys clearly don't have what to say. No apologies, you guys are daft.

People use POS to rob these days, that's what they're trying to kick against, and yes, it is within EFCC'S JURISDICTION.

Banks usually tip customers under investigation to move their funds before their accounts are blocked, that's 100% criminal

We' re in an era were you can be wounded in Nigeria for speaking against crime because Nigerian number of criminals have passed that of good people.

The main issue is, how do they get the money out of the account cos it takes at least 2 days for the money to be available.

Fraud committed with POS machines is unimaginable. Chinese are senior men when it come to that. They steal or clone credits of big companies in China or Hong Kong , one of them flies to Kenya with the cards forming tourist they approach Kenyan businesses that accepts cards for payment and "collaborate" with them under the disguise they are paying for goods and services running into thousands of dollars. The kenyan business person withdraws the money that has hit the business bank account gives the Chinese about 70% of the money the rest is for "his/her stress" cheesy cheesy cheesy

Please! Please!! Please!!!
U are entitled to your opinion bro,
But the moment you start dabbling into issues you have little or no knowledge about, you misconstrue the general public.

Have you had a sensitive case to file with any arm of Nigerian Federal Authority and are willing to exercise the full blown of might on u? Then, u would know that Nigeria has professionals in service..
