.... Maybe someone had access to your card

Even with access to the card the person needs OTP or token to complete the transaction, I have used Luno to buy btc previously. Whoever did this had access to OPs phone or token device I think..

If the person account has been verify on Luno, Luno could be of help, on luno you have to put your valid identity card before you buy coins on it

But you have not answered the real question. Did you sign up on luno and provide your card details?

Your ATM card details have been compromised. While this might be due to a successful phishing attempt don't rule out people around you.

Someone could have seen and captured the details of your card.

Burrow money for now, Dont allow one challenge prevent you from doing what the money is meant for.

My bank did not send me a debit alert of the 27k.
Assuming they did so I would have contacted them to block my account.
They had to wait for the 100k debit was made before they send me an alert.
I don't know if this is deliberate. My banks and my wife's bank don't send alerts until after 24-72hrs. And this started recently.

Kai! For this weather. Bro. Your money is chilling in LUNO account.


Inside life. Bro we can't kill ourselves. Mi I can't kill myself because I have lost more than this to online platforms.

The only solution is to block the account and open a new bank account.

What I do is I have a private account I use for online banking and another for savings and businesss.

I'm sorry about that. Just seek for help from family and friends. And move on. But this time stand tall

Bro this is shocking to me, I just hope my bank will be able to reverse the money to me.
Your bank can't reverse money used in purchasing Bitcoin on Luno. That's why they always emphasis on keeping your details safe. Someone close to you has access to your bank and card details and used it on opening an account on Luno amd purchase BTC on Luno. Count your lose and change your details then move on

OMG


Sorryyyyyyyy


One have to be careful this days. One of my student (jambites that I teach) was passing on my desk and said Sir, keep your ATM safe. This was cuz I dropped it on my desk.

So I said to him, even if someone take it, it will be useless cuz he or she doesn't know the pin. He laughed and said to me:

Sir, boys don't need your pin. If they get a hold of your ATM number, they can do damage to your bank account.

I was indeed amazed.

Can this be true?

They can't and won't! I bet you. I've witnessed cases like this and the banks involved couldn't even trace the destination of the stolen funds, let alone apprehending the culprit. Just block that account.
Re: Someone Withdrew Over 100k From My Account. I Am Depressed Right Now by Albert0011(m): 10:55am On Oct 15, 2019
This the main reason why i stopped using ATM.
My money is safe in the bank..if i want to withdraw,i go straight to the bank and if am short of cash or in need of it urgently, i know were to borrow from and they will give me without thinking twice.

You need to contact your bank

As a learning point,
You need to create an empty account to link to any apps or services you use. That way, if you need to make a transaction, you transfer to the empty account.

People are saying a luno app was used. Is the app on your phone? Do you access the site? What kind of phone do you use?


Several choices we take with our phones can leave us vulnerable to compromised bank accounts

A lot of cheap Chinese phones ship with malware and apps not certified by google. The equivalent of having an illegal alien in your house doing chores.

A lot of people to save data, do not update apps on their devices. One of the reasons apps are constantly updated is because vulnerabilities and security holes have been identified in the apps. The longer you have an out of date app, the more susceptible you can be to hacking

Using pirated apps. A lot of pirated apps may do other things you are unaware of

Friends and family. You will be surprised at the fact that it could Be someone you know who observed you, captured your pin and shared it to someone for a small dash. I hope you have changed your pin.

Using business cenTers. To my surprise, people still do this. Once a contractors employee went to a business center and sent us emails from there. I was furious and I told him he had made our emails available to all and sundry for any kind of abuse. Once someone can get your email password, there is no limit to the rubbish he can do

2fa. Google and Microsoft have apps that can be used in conjunction with services like PayPal to provide 2fa to your account/ crucial apps. This ensures that even if your password is compromised, there is still an extra layer of security


You have to take proactive steps

This is the face of the reality of those useless bastards efcc keeps parading. This is what they do. Steal people’s money to floss in nightclub, then they will tell you they are hard working programmers or businessmen

Anyone who did this Is close to you and have access to your ATM card and phone to confirm the otp code sent to your number. Knowing your ATM and pin is not enough to initiate that transaction successfully. Your bank will also send an OTP code to your registered phone number and you'll have to confirm the code. A girl I know wanted to do this to a guy she slept with, and called me in the middle of the night for directions which I declined so she called someone else. Yahoo Boys didn't do this, ask your room mates, plot twist he could be a yahoo boy undecided

Really sad and it can be really frustrating. Would you mind contacting me and i will let you know how best you can resolve the matter.

It is purely an internal banking failure and has nothing to do with a third party hacking your account.

Cheer up man.
