PhonesRe: Bank Fraud With Only OTP, How? Please Advice Her by showietee: 3:33pm On Mar 03, 2021
achidisucre:
A girl recently shared her painful experience with me on bank fraud. Due to security reasons, she decided not to have an ATM card, mobile transfer app (for Android) or ordinary transfers done with Nokia touch.

One evening, she was tricked into revealing an OTP code sent to her by her bank.

The next minute, a debit of #20,000 was made in her account. She later received a mail of online purchase. She narrated all these to me but I couldn't explain why because I thought fraudulent act can only be possible with an account that has ATM card or mobile transfer.

Please gurus, how possible is it? Someone should please explain.

Lastly, what do you advice her to do? She is confused, should she close the account?
Your message seems not to be complete.

Otp- one time password

Otp - is sent to customer when a transaction is initiated, the otp is used to finalise the transaction.


Where is transaction initiated from?

Who did she show the otp?

Mind you, otp expires in ten minutes time.

I remember when I had no job and was surviving on installation that's about 5 years ago. I had a call to install a dish that would fetch me my about 5K in less than an hour. Na so my wife stood in front of the door that I should not go. I mean nothing at home to eat. I had to push her away and you know woman naso matter turned upside down that I pushed her down. Brother, one have to be stubborn to achieve somethings when you are married.

Meanwhile the next day she asked me to give her money from that same money I got from the job to cook pot of food grin grin grin grin grin grin

Hahahaha, for show off and that's what most people use it for, I can't imagine paying for something that can be gotten foc all in the name of I dey use iPhone(unless jailbreaking it which most won't go down that path)

Then some say it's because of the camera, these days there are cams on android that beats it hands down like the Huawei, Mi 10 ultra, Samsung, etc.

The truth is that about 40% of the function of the iPhone can't be used or accessed in this part of the world.

The plus I see in the iPhone is the sell-on value. Android simply gives endless possibilities, is there something your Android can't do?
Well said, it’s a mad rush... neva had flair for it.

And still gonna drop it soon....

Haha. Sometimes I wonder why the stress on FTA even when one can easily pay for paid subscription. My 1.8m is even blocking my neighbors entrance apart from other dishes in front of my room.
That’s the outcome of the love of it... I can’t put more dish so as not to block the ways for others, though I have enough space for 1.8 but I am still holding down.


You need to see some people hall of dish!

It all depends on your pocket
Csat c8 pro is the cheapest, has a very good tuner but very susceptible to surge and sparks so it must be carefully maintained. Comes with tshare account that opens European birds. Less than 10k.

Strong 497s has a very good tuner and comes with free 1yr mytv cccam. It's rugged but does not support decryption protocol like biss, powervu etc. About 20k+

Hellobox 8 comes with dvbfinder to watch sat on your mobile. Great signal tuner and smooth UI. Comes with SCAM+ account that opens zap and some European birds. About 20k+

You could also go for the tiger and mediastar series that has the acclaimed forever server which opens European bird and some stations on startimes 16E. Also connects with the GM screen app to control your box and track. Between 10k-20k
The gmscreen app, do you know of any iOS substitute for it?

Was flexing the features on my mediastar with Android phone until I switch to iOS, I haven’t been able to enjoy the feature since then....

My brother me and you dey the same boat. At least e go make the account in my Hello box8, I just bought not too long ago dey useful. After that one I go just retire for this FTA Matter.

According to Timaya " I can kill myself oh" Lol


But come to think of it, that possibility of being able to watch FTA channels on your computer or phone, data free and without disturbing anybody for middle of the night, or just to relax for backyard. That comes with hello box 8 sweet like crazy.

A feature I have always dreamt of way back. Is really a must have for people like us. I no longer watch programs direct from TV again. With my earpiece plug in.... I find myself in my own zone with no distraction whatsoever or that time you have friends come over and you guys just feel like chilling outside, within the compound and the laptop go just dey stream the channels. See efizy , haha.
Is it possible to retire?

For the love of it, you will be tempted to touch

My brother nor mind me oh, na FTA madness just catch me like 10 years back when Google direct me come this place.

I first rush go buy strong 4663 and two 60 CM dish... I rush come back to this place, I hear of c-band, I run go buy 1.8m dish.. I rush come back again, I hear of mbc, osn and micro box... Quickly I connect someone here based in Lagos. I buy 2.4 metre. The dish nor catch osn and bein sport well, na so, I rush go onitsha market for east go buy 3metre dish. That one come finally catch am.

After a while I just dismantle everything, go buy dstv keep for house.

Funny enough, it was when I start being active again in this forum ten years after, that I decided to go parking store, bring them out. So as to dey updated, just to fit they answer questions that pops up, from the newbies or ideas or new info on sat position.

The same reason I was curious about the young man info, but he still chooses to be a funny guy. Which is nice though.


Anyway to answer your question, I just counted three 90cm dish, one 2.4metre, one 3metre , then 1m and 1.8 dey for parking store. This FTA can really make one look crazy. Sometimes my wife will just be asking me one question all the time. " so this dstv in this house is not enough for you to watch? " why do you keep turning dish up and down and still you end up not really watching anything ? Then I will reply, it's an old habit that refuse to die na. Lol..

Forgive my long long talk. I just wan make we gist small
Fta is contagiously .... I have similar experience with you but I do not have more than two dish.... my wife still complained this night, I don’t like how you usually go to those dish....
BusinessRe: CBN Investigates Cryptocurrency Companies’ Bank Accounts For Fraud by showietee: 11:38pm On Feb 08, 2021
MT:
CBN laid out a well articulated case with facts. Lot of people ranting here don't even understand what cryptocurrency is all about. No one can offer a valid , tenable, deep thinking regarding it. All they did was to throw insults and jabs to Buhari and CBN.

For once, engage in an intellectual discussion with depth.
People actually wants returns and not concern about how they arrive as such, that’s a trait of greediness...
BusinessRe: CBN Investigates Cryptocurrency Companies’ Bank Accounts For Fraud by showietee: 11:35pm On Feb 08, 2021
Inteltower:
Pls don't be deceived as these people in power speak from 2 sides of their mouth.

They may have listed tangible reasons as to why they banned transactions in crypto

But get this:

1) CBN by it use of the word regulation means freezing your accounts when you are supporting a protest financially or to do something that challenges govt. By not doing certain things they the government want would mean closing ur account or restricting u financially.
They take away your financial independence which cryptpcurrency offers

2) The Alternative they are forcing us to abide is failing naira which only depreciates in your bank account
Compare a #10 naira fiat currency and a #10 naira in bitcoin, which has more appreciation value ?

3) They forgot to add among the financial system is their excessive bank charges monthly/annually, how about dollar restrictions but exemptions to piligrims and finally the worthless bank interests they give u on your money

4) Its not today that crime started, why haven't they banned the legal tender: Naira since it has been repeatedly used in fraud and kidnapping. Mind u some coins that were used for criminal activities can be traced

Some call it ponzi scheme, I call it liberty to an ever changing/advanced world and independently i wont play catch up.
Only those that lack understanding of what crypto is would call it ponzi or scam and am so sorry for u

They used corruption to destroy our economy which still happens today which has led us in being a consumption based economy, to roll out great policies and support youth startups then was war for them.

Now they want us all to grow in the backward pace of economy

A lot of people backing this sanction are the ruling class, not middle or lower class. They don't know where it pinches for a lot of persons. They havent stopped corruption which has put Nigeria in what it is today, a far greater evil
But to ban crypto; a financial innovation legal to the community that accepts it

See how the cornered the crime of fraud to youths just to blame crypto

Hmm I tire. Make we break up

MyOpinion1:
There is nothing manipulative abt crypto
They ought to put restrictions on the amount of money you can withdraw to crypto account..
Banning financial institutions from it won't stop Nigeria from trading it and the economy will be losing money
Did you say there is nothing manipulative about crypto?

Which govt is regulation it and if things go haywire we do we blame or how do you trace your investment?

Instead of them regulating it, they put a ban on it..
I just laugh at the useless economic policies they kept dishing out..
When people make money tru crypto, where does the money goes?
Best way around crypto currency is to ban what they have not say or control over that can manipulate their economy and put in place their own controlled digital currency

Who is regulating it?

PoliticsRe: Atiku Appeals To Buhari: Don’t Shut Down Cryptocurrency Business by showietee: 12:32pm On Feb 06, 2021
Esseite:
Atiku is just chasing clout... CBN took the best decision.

Unregulated Crypto currency is a lazy investment that tilts more on outflow of FX rather than inflow.. it is death sentence to import dominated countries.


E.g- I buy bitcoin with N10m that would be domiciled in source Nation(not Nigeria).. if it rises in 1 year by maybe 10%, I may have gained 1m as an individual, but I have starved my country economy of recycling my 10m if it was domiciled in a Nigerian bank or invested into the society which could have produced more than 10% while creating jobs.. note as an import dominated nation, the chance of loosing that 1m as another escaped forex is 95% on foreign goods while 5% I may spend on local food.

The Nigerian greed for small margins has blinded a lot of people, imagine Crypto currency trading far beyond your indigenous Stock exchange and some feel it's okay
The truth of the matter is majority do not know.... blind followers.

Remove front screen completely with care and apply gum all over again.
Mine is not powering on at all but one could feel it is charging as it gets warmer after awhile wen the charger is plugged on and when plugeed to a PC, it is not recognised.
