YoungPerson:
While I honestly want to commend this piece of news, I cannot help but smell double standards here. The bank only reported him because he was naive and didn't enter some important offices before and after the drop. The same banks that are hiding millions of dollars in stolen funds have never for one day graced the headlines for whistleblowing a corrupt politician. smh.
EFCC is also functioning on misplaced priorities. They should go after the real thieves.






Did you know that one of the IGRs of North Korea is cyber attacking and stealing money from foreign installations? Well, now you do.

Better than not doing anything at all.

Still on still, he was caught, was he guilty ? yes. Why the fuss about the bank calling the attention of the EFCC over a fraudulent transaction ? We keep crying about how corrupt our system is, but even when the few which the arms of the laws can touch are being persecuted it is still us that cry why didn't they go after others ? We are our own problem.

haaaaaaaaa:
I guess he and the branch manager of the supposed bank where the transaction happened did reach a reasonable agreement.
Let's be frank with each other, bigger transactions are happening and EFCC only hear of few

SavageMaster:
After forfeiting the money to FG, what happens next?

The FG will dash the money again to Bagudu.

Sir, you're asking the obvious..
One Musa or Audu who can barely express himself in English will steal the money and take it back to Europe for safekeeping or go shopping with it.
The problem with Nigeria is her citizens, Nigerians!

Ausrichie:

They carried out an investigation and they found out the money was sent to him by a fraudster. Simple. You should read the article you know it could help.

My brother keep kwayet there..
There was no petition, no complain from any quarter, the bank just decided to snitch based on suspicion. I know you'd say it's fraud and all but then mention one country in Europe or America where proceeds of fraud isn't one of the sources of their economy. Even the USA, most times when our oil money is stolen and deposited in their banks, they know it's illicit and fraud money but what do they stand to gain when they reject them or snitch.
They seal their mouth and use the money to drive their economy.
This "Hollier than thou" is only hypocrisy and its taking us nowhere.
When you talk about fraud Nigeria is a learner where North Korea, Russia and several other European countries are. These are countries y'all want to migrate to.
Hypocrisy and double standard is killing us more than Corona virus

Maross:

Good response!
Most folks here know nothing about banking. smh...

Question is why don't they report the illegal transactions done by politicians?
Mention 1 bank in Nigeria, in fact the whole world that does not run backdoor transactions.
In this particular case, there was not a single petition or complaint from any one.
The real truth is: they're preying on vulnerable and ordinary citizens to score cheap compliance points.
And my brother that is double standard, that is hypocrisy. In the end, the said money will still be stolen

He was reported because he couldn't confirm that the money came from a legal source, he wasn't reported because $54 000 was transferred to him, let's learn to read and comprehend things well before we comment.

Captainrambo2:
I swear. Total breach of trust. People should avoid using these stupid banks.


Even with petition it will be difficult to breach gtb like this, how much more without one.

Make the senior director here say you just go report customer your eye go see your ear

In USA dey fraudster can't open a new account again but in Nigeria u can open once free

BluntBoy:


Many of you are short-sighted.

If they don't do this things, even you and your brother may lose money to fraudsters one day. What if a fraudster scams your brother of 20 million, and rather than turning the other way and keeping quiet, the bank reports to EFCC, and investigations then uncovers suspicious transactions. And in the end, your brother's money is saved. Would that not be good for your brother?

The case here is different from the illustration you sighted.
In this case, nobody reported anything, there was no compliant or petition from any quarter. The bank acted only on suspicion. Biko, is there any clean money in this world?
If you think there is, you need to have a rethink

The truth is, FCMB wanted him to forfeit the money. The guy was probably doing strong head that’s why they reported him to the EFCC. I swear if you are expecting $1000, that no-life useless bank will make your life entirely unbearable. I am talking from experience and as a 12 years old bank customer who was treated like a criminal because my boss transferred over 2million naira to me. Imagine banking with a bank for over 10 years and they were expecting you to abandon money because they believe you are suddenly a criminal? FCMB is not a bank, it’s a fraudulent organization. God punish the owners and those working there

Obiaksnews:
You are one of the reasons Nigeria would never get better, people like you who justify one crime with the crime of others are the problem we have in this country. People like you won't complain about crime when it's beneficial to you, but would only complain when it's not beneficial. You can do better.

WRONG, It seems this is too advanced for you my brother, I started by saying that I don't support crimes.

If you understood the example I gave earlier about Hitler's scientists, you would see that America and indeed most advanced democracies always place their national interests above anything else.

Another example, why do you think the US government did not come down hard on Saudi Arabia despite clear evidence that Mohammad bin Salman ordered the killing of US resident Journalist Khashoggi? Have you seen any serious investigation regarding that murder recently? Think my brother, think .

I agree with the policy and the fact that he was caught. The issue i have is that all this guys in government go away with bigger money and are not caught. What a pity

This hurts cos Mr Francis is naive....well, he no suffer get the money.

Please go sit down jare, which politician in Nigeria has a bank balance that corresponds with his known source of income? Have FCMB reported them to EFCC?

Na because the guy refuse to do kill and divide.

Ole bank.

Did you read the article? You didn't read it so keep quiet too my man. The receiver of the money produced the driving licence of the man that sent the money and as protocol requires the bank did a check on the sender and realised that he is a fraudster in America. You people are always supporting these people who steal from others, it is evil it is evil period.

FCMB is a useless bank...where other banks are looking for customers to hit target...these ones are reporting their client...

FCMB is a useless bank

Its normal procedure and protocol for all banks to flag account with single Inflow above certain amounts with EFCC. If its genuine they will leave u bt if criminal u are in trouble.

If the bank doesn't flag the account and report the inflow they will have a case to answer with EFCC.

If they were smart or sought advice they wud hv broken the inflow into small payments per day below the flagged amount.

What happen to bitcoin

I am not supporting crime .FCMB ARE NO SAINT.The guy did not settle the manager and that was why it is done.Now who will now take the money another thief in government house.Nigeria na wah
