From my experience two things could be the reason...I've had such experiences before ..the banks do not have right to close your account unless by a court order but security agencies are always overzealous and overreaching that they threaten banks

First your lawyer needs to write and request the bank order the bank got. To their head office. Once the bank hears that you requested the court order and they do not have one they will immediately beg you...same thing they did with me. But if there's a court order, then you will need to vacate it by another court order.

However, don't go to the bank o. They will arrest you. This is why you need to relationship with your account officer so they can update you even though it's u ethical. If you're good to them they will tell you some levels of the truth.

Nothing of such
then you might have received a third party payment from someone who might want to purchase something from you and pays you with an account not in their name.. He might be defrauding the person and uses your account to receive funds while you send him the product he bought from you....... This is the main reason I do not accept third party payment of any sort in my business

It may be you used one of the account for crypto and they felt you're a fraudster because fraudsters have made crypto trading a money laundering OR cleaning or washing avenue.

Or did you transact above the limit of one of your account?

And lastly, someone may have used another person's account to send money to you. You know what that means?

Same here with a fine of 5M, over 20M frozen. Although, it was because of Bitcoin related issues.
My friend, if you go to that bank be careful if not you will be handed over to EFCC. I speak reality, you're safe if it's not btc related. I was even threatened by the bank manager last year because I wanted to transfer 8M from my account. I wish you well, get a lawyer standby to avoid harrasment.

I tried transferring money from my GTB account only to get error messages.

I thought it was network or app issues.

I tried several times from then till next day but same response.

I tried buying airtime but it failed too.

I now contacted the bank and they said account is restricted/frozen; that I should visit a branch.

I called account officer and he confirmed the restrictions but gave no reason for that.

He was just evasive but hinted that restrictions were placed by law enforcement agency. No agency specifically was mentioned.

I tried UBA and Zenith too, similar restrictions yet no reason.

I use the accounts for legit businesses online and have had them since over 14 years, so can't say with certainty what the issue is.

How do I handle this now as going to the banking hall might lead to arrests etc, so I need to be prepared.

I need suggestions please.






Get a lawyer asap, go with him to the bank


Do you have any issue with anyone regarding business dispute or money dispute?

If your hands are clean, then go to the bank n Inquire but if not, just go with a lawyer, same restrictions was placed on my account some weeks back, I just smiled as a finance manager I am, I drove immediately to the bank and went straight to see the branch manager,

They checked and confirmed I got an inflow of certain amount some months back which happened to be a fraudulent Transfer, quickly I recalled and it was a certain lady, I tricked her in meeting me then handed her over to the police. Issue got resolved in couple of days n lien was lifted on my account.

Lesson: never accept any transfers in from unknown persons except you Know it's a relative but my advice is don't accept any kind of transfer from anyone. Relatives can also be involved in fraud.

All d best bro.

It is your bvn that has been flagged which affected your account and it will affect every single thing bvn is used for even nin, as it is now you can't even open account with that your bvn etc... You have to sort out the issue very fast before bvn blacklisting is the worse thing that can happen to anybody in Nigeria, Trust me I'm speaking from experience

Hmmm...no fear, just go to your bank and clear yourself only if you are clean
Once he does, he will be arrested. He defrauded someone and the person have filed a case against him. Court granted the order via a Police division. Once he goes to his bank, they will lock him up and hand him over to nearest Police station and then notify the Police division that wrote the petition to come pick him up to go answer for whatever financial crime he committed using his bank account.



The reason will only be revealed to him at the Police station that wrote the petition.

You will surely be arrested if you get to the bank. Bro did you do any online buz or transaction overing millions of naira illegally ? The issue here is that you need to be sincere to yourself, cos there is trouble already waiting for you but do not panick if you don't have any skeleton in your cupboard.

Before you go, go and get your scum certificate from efcc and proof of show that you're into legitimate business. (That is if you're into a legit one, cos you're have to prove it o them).

However, you might have carelessly received money locally from criminal minded persons directly from their account, transfered third-party who is on the wanted list of the law enforcement agents or someone reported you to the law enforcement agency if you have transaction deficit with them.

Prepare to spend some days in the with the law enforcers while the continue to do their job and get someone to bring you food and water and some money in your pocket.

The law enforcers will have to do their job of knowing the sources of the money in the account and you also have the right to prove your case. They will read the allegations to you and it's up to you to prove it asap. If the matter cannot be resolved in a week, you may have to be taken to court or refreed to SIB for further investigation.

Go back to all your AppS, download all your transactions and print them out before you set out. Reconcile the accounts, go with a SOUND lawyer and hope we see you back soon. Wish you the best

Let me quickly add, ensure you go early , I mean don't wait till the issue escalates beyond you and they declare you wanted. It will only worsen the situation. Once you didn't kill or receive money from kidnappers, you will come back sooner than expected.

But the day you present yourself, is the day that the investigation starts. Don't panick , go and present yourself especially to a more senior officer of the law enforcement.

Bye bro

This is my fear whenever I want to link my account to any crypto trading platform OR stuff. Infact, that is the reason up till now I don't do crypto trading etc.
