Were it from someone else I would have given reasons why it will be impossible for an atm machine to dispense counterfeit naira notes. But an atm machine in Omoku Rivers State after series of withdraws yesterday 19/2/15 dispensed a counterfeit #1000 note. It was a shocker. I immediately alerted the security men there, they advised I wait till 8am when the bank usually opens and all other witnesses around were filled with awe. Finally they opened their doors to customers around 8:30am I walked in and got a bigger surprise; the senior officer or operations manager said there's a possibility I had it on me that I should write a complaint and attach the note (story for the gods). So my dear good people of NL. How do I handle this? I still have the note with me. Lest I forget, there and then a security guard offered me #500 for that same note but I refused. My anger was the attitude of the customer relations officer and whoever the operations manager was for saying I had it on me. I had to collect phone numbers of people who witnessed the incident. So give me the best way to get them not to make such expensive mistake again.

The head of operation should be sacked and arrested.

That is Nigeria for u,u have already been told that no evidence to proof ur claim.So my bro,my advice is accept what cannot be change and fast for 41 days with immense prayers for ur beloved country.With prayers,everything is possible

Sick country.
It is apparent in everything: From the security personnel who offered to buy the counterfeit note to the operations manager who couldn't think about confirming your claims first via the CCTV attached to the ATM.

I thought these machines can detect fake notes and have them destroyed promptly...?
Wont be surprised if a machine in Naija dispenses a blank piece of paper cut to the size of currency notes.

If truly u didn't have it on you & they do nothin to rectify it or show true remorse,sue them for fraud & deceit...

Nigeria and dramas. I don't know which steps you can take but I wish you make millions from this careless act of theirs.

Boss how far, just destroy the money, how are you doing it being a while @OP

get a lawyer, not mining d cost.

@op, please don't destroy the money. Write the said letter, make photocopies, take pictures of you attaching the fake note, before you hand them the letter.

It happened to me, though mine was paid over the counter. I couldn't identify the fake note because the money I withrew was huge and this was on friday. I only detected on monday when I paid the fake note along with other good ones. I rushed back to the bank around 12noon and gently walked to the cashier who denied paying me. The manager changed the money from his pocket when I told him I was going to petition the bank.

In other words, they know their staff play smart. Don't let it go without a fight. You have witnesses, I didn't. It's just a thousand, but imagine if they are allowed to dispense without caution.

I believe you OP but let's face reality here. It will be very difficult to prove you didn't have the money with you before. I doubt if any lawyer will take up such a case

In all I did record my conversation with them inside the bank. The way they were sending me from one desk to another. The response was anticipated, just getting ready to make them pay wella. I told the manager to get the footage from the cctv in the atm ready. Am just laughing in Swahili.

No wonder I see many people counting their money in front of the ATM after withdrawing money just in case

Na today?

There was a day i left d office unknowingly wit an empty wallet.

Lift is not working and i can't climb stairs to the fifth floor to retrieve my money so, i decided to just use the atm and withdraw 1000 naira to use as tfare. Lo and behold, the sole note dispensed to me is a fake note. Shaperly i went into the banking hall and changed the money.

The idiot wanted to claim i had other notes on me so i just showed her my wallet containing just 200 naira.

She got no choice o.

Btw... Myself and some of my colleagues has been a victim many times.
