New Robbery Method In Lagos, Beware! by Reflotron: 9:17am On Aug 26, 2015
Hello, everyone. This is actually an alternate account. I had to take out time to let you guys know about the trend in robbery currently taking place in Lagos, especially on the Island.
I would also plead with the victims to pls spread the word on social media and other means.
These robbers are sleek, responsible looking guys. The operate in cars, two of them. What they do is to offer their unsuspecting victims a ride, and even initiate a good conversation. They would then proceed to bring out their guns, requesting for cooperation and, ATM cards. They tie up the hands of their victims with cellotape, asking them to close their eyes while calling out the pin numbers. They hit/beat uncooperative people, threatening to harm them. While this is all going on, they are driving around aimlessly. They do have a POS with them which they use to confirm the authenticity of the pin number. They operate early in the morning and night. After robbing, they would warn the victims not to enter private cars again, that they are angry with ladies who fall their victim.
Please, spread the word! Don't accept free rides from ppl you do not know. Don't move around with your ATM, unless u have very little cash in it. These guys drive in a cream coloured jeep. The one who drives is a hefty dude,speaks igbo fluently. Spread this info. Two of my friends fell victim, and their stories are exactly alike. Both occurred within a space of 3 days last week.
May God protect us all, we would never lose our hard earned money to thieves.

This is an easy case to crack.
Every POS is attached to an account. The victims should report to their bank. Let the bank audits and internal control check the account for which their ATM was debited.
And now that all the banks have been harmonised,tracking would be easier.

Have you met refined corporate thieves ?

They steal in air conditioned vehicles behind tinted Windows like you read. When he was busy demolishing people's homes without adequate compensation and sinking borehole with N139m, what do you call that ?

the OP said they used the POS to confirm PIN not for withdrawal: "They do have a POS with them which they use to confirm the authenticity of the pin number".

LOL. That was the first thing I thought. She was at the bank on Monday, and on Tuesday was told that the info on the POS was incomplete for it to be tracked. We actually suspect a bank insider being involved with that. Maybe they have POS linked to a ghost account or something. One of the victims is considering making a report to EFCC. The police are busy asking for processing fees.... SMH
