My sister's handbag was snatched at Knifepoint by an Aboki man around airforce junction in Port-harcourt. The bag contained her phone, Zenith bank ATM card and other valuables.

Unfortunately, her phone wasn't locked. The thief transferred all her money from her Zenith bank account to her OPay account, then quickly created an OPay card and withdrew the funds by midnight.

We were able to track the exact location of the phone the following day using her google account, before the thief removed the account.

We urgently need help in identifying and tracing the individual(s) who assisted with the OPay card creation and withdrawal.

we have called Opay customer care, but they are not willing to assist.

To her own Opay account or the criminal Opay account?

Sadly nothing can be done,

Best is to pay police to track the phone and hopefully find the culprit.

Why didn't she lock her phone? she is her problem.

That Airforce junction is very deadly at night,
Some years back me and my bro was coming from Airforce to Rumola, when we reach Airforce to wait for cab, 2 guys approached us begging for arms, we declined and said we had no money, so one of them tried to change am for us, he said if na GUN OR KNIFE I hold ona for don give us money and ona fone abi, Omo two seconds we and my brother change am immediately for dem as ijaw boys, (Ona think say we dey fear gun/knife) we throw one/two PH slacks and we ready fight, omo d guys just left us

mission impossible
either pay police to tract am
or use am get sense
firstly
don't
take your
atm with you
most times use micro finance bank
always
register two sim the one with your bank acc should be kept in small phone in side your box and keep servcing it
to aviod being blocked
or u register two banks the atm u use should just have little amount in it
but the sim weY YOU TAKE REGISTER BANK SHOULD NOT BE ON MOBILE 2-4(CARRYING IT EVERY WHERE YOU GO{MTN)

We learn everyday

How was he able to carry out the transfer from zenith bank to the opay account? Did your sister supplied her the password/pin?

jamesversion:


I wanted to ask d same question. Cos I know you need a password/biometric access to open a bank app. Also you need a pin to send money after confirming that account number and amount on the bank app.

On a second thought, I think the transfer is possible because everything the thief needs to reset the pin is right there in front of him, the Sim and the atm card.

Op, Let your sister count her losses and move on. I'm Sorry for her loss though

I laugh in Swahili

Foolish question. No solution proffered. How does this solve a thing?

No b today we don dey see dem oo

I pray God replenish her loss, and police were able to trace the phone without compromise. Reading the story, just make me wondering how naija think when it come to evil av. Now it will be difficult for any bank to help bcuz the transaction look more of like self induced.

I think best options is to start doing the sim lock and if possible have two accounts one with ATM and those mobile stuff and the other without any e-banking except ur sms.

Sorry about that. Next time let she be more security conscious. You can easily lock your Sim card nau. No access even more f the phone is flashed. Except with password.

Other alternatives, For opay, if you lost or misplaced your phone, dial *955*131# while card misplaced or stolen, dial *955*132#

Of course, with another phone.

Why didn’t she lock her phone in the first place?

you will save yourself a lot if you put the SIM card linked to your bank in password

All he had to do was register his fingerprint on her phone to unlock her bank app(Opay, Zenith or anybank) or reset her password and pin using otp then transferd the money to her opay then reset her opay pin with same otp method b4 applying for card through any nearby agent(who should be arrested because the opay agent should know better that the account information is that of a female but maybe the aboki guy used a female to get the card) after which he withdrew the money.

Always lock your sim card and your phone and also don't use fingerprint in unlocking your bank apps or any app you consider private.

I see you're trying to demarket opay

Always keep the sim card associated with your main bank account at home

Sudden Death to all Yahoo Boys.

All this opay easy to access easy to defraud account

CBN should intervene and enforce strict measures

Also incase you don't know, fingerprint is the most unsafe mode of protecting anything on your phone

Fingerprint security is as good as no security you are better off with passwords

how could this happen.

i thought abokis are not smart people who are only good in making suya and delicious indomie.

Nothing concern me but E dey mind

That is why I hate these fintechs...they will surely disppoint u.

Too dull to assist u in times of emergency such as this one.
