If I am getting you clear , you are trying to say the new paga account you created to trabsfer the 30% to was debited automatically
Yes. How they accessed my Paga account and transfered to themselves without my authorization still baffles me.
Paga number attached to the transfered account: 0906 657 5684

The site looks real and even has a physical address in PH,have you tried checking there?
It does not exist. The number on the site does not go and is Whatsapp only I was blocked after automatic debit from my Paga account. I reached out to the number using a second number to discover my first number was truly blocked. He blocked my second number when he discovered it was me.

I want to share an experience to prevent others from losing money.
I received an advert of a company operating under the name “Drivaro Auto Financing”, offering vehicle financing/auto loan support. As part of the process, I was instructed to open a Paga account and deposit my contribution (30% equity/payment for the vehicle financing). See their website: https://drivaroautos.com/
And Whatsapp number: +2347065053754
Shortly after the funds were deposited, ₦1,500,000 disappeared from the account without my authorization. The money was reportedly transferred to an account bearing the name “Idowu Adeluola” and then I was blocked. I have already begun reporting the matter to relevant institutions.
Red flags I wish I had taken more seriously:
Pressure to quickly open a new account for payments
Requests to move money into a newly created account
Lack of verifiable physical presence or transparent loan documentation
Communication patterns that became suspicious after payment
I am sharing this to encourage caution. If you are considering any auto financing arrangement, please verify the company independently, confirm registration details, visit a physical office if available, and never transfer large sums without proper legal documentation and bank verification.
If anyone has had a similar experience with this company name or process, please share.
