Commuters that leave early often fall victim of these robbers operating with commercial bus. Prior to the advent of ATM card, they dispossess their victims of their phones, cash and other personal effects. But, what they do now is to collect ATM Cards and Pin of their victims, while the victims are in the bus, they take the cards to the mahine and empty their victims accounts. Another one just happened to a friend this morning, she was picked form Opebi going to maryland but suddenly they changed direction and took her to Adeniyi Jones, ikeja. Her ATM card was collected with the pin while she was held hostage in the bus, one of the robbers went to the ATM and withdrew maximum limit for the day.

What can be done to overcome this crime? What can the banks do to forstall this crime? The use token number to withdraw more than a particular limit a day e.g N20k or some security check should be introduced.

In developed countries.. when you are forced to withdraw from ur ATM. all u have to do is enter the reverse of ur pin.. it would dispense cash but alert the police the same very moment..

if ur pin is 1234, enter 4321..

shikena..

Very true, another good way is to use the cctv installed in the machine. Many people dnt know dat ATM comes wit camera.

The robbers who try this are not aware a camera is right there above their head.

They may achieve their aim quite alright but will never successfully settle down to eat their loot...

Africa

So bad

I dunno o...

Only God can save us in Nigeria, insecurity everywhere. U wake up daily not knowing what will become of u. Security is not our leaders concern, what is paramount to them is how to drain our common wealth. We need total revolution

New style of robbery

It's too early for dis

This is Nigeria

Odikwa very risky Oooooo


It all boil down to our country security, not introducing a token or security whatever for withdrawal of 20k and above since they are with the account owner. They will just instruct her

If only our policemen can be watchful.




In conclusion, my people embrace E banking.
