If the sim is tied your BVN/bank accounts. Quickly block access to it by calling your bank or go retrive the sim as soon as possible so you don't come back here to share a heart touching story of how you bank account was cleared.

Nobody will gain access to your account.They will discard the SIM card and sell the phone.Go to computer village around 7am.You will see some guys brandishing mobile phones for sale.One of those might be among them.

They can, my phone was stolen last year, they got rid of the phone and went away with the SIM. Long story short they withdrew 100k from my account before I could get to the bank. They used just my registered SIM

Exactly, I was lucky in my case that they only withdrew 100k as that was the daily limit. I for just faint if say dem clear my account.

I don't understand this. How would they withdraw money they don't have passwords for

Few days ago , some pickpockets made away with my phone, phone in my pocket while listening to morning news, they left the earpiece and took the phone ,first thing I did was call my bank to put my account on PND, then went to,block the SIM card. I logged on to find my phone on goggle changed my email password and then wiped the hard drive.

Next, I logged on to my avast phone guard app interface, the app helps secure your phone , it won't turn on if sim card is changed without my input, I can alway track the phpme number of the new sim, lock the phone, open GPS and even take front view camera shot of the thief

BVN, they can check your BVN via your bank registered SIM.

Don't wait till you get to bank before blocking your account. Borrow a phone and call your bank's customer care right away, they will block it immediately.

I don't understand ooo


Ok, what if I have your contact on my phone, I now copy your number,went to retrieve another sim using your number.

That means, I can use it to withdraw your money or buy airtime.



But password is needed to wipe an account, then how did the thief gets the password?

Which password? I didn't activate USSD on my line, so they initiated a fresh ussd on my line.

This is the biggest lie police won't tell you about.

Last year my phone was stolen in dolphin estate in Lagos. I took the park and ticket from slot with all the necessary details to police college were I was directed to the unit that does the tracking.

They said it will cost me 20k and that the phone can only be tracked if another sim card is inserted into the phone and its a 50/50 thing.

Phone that I bought for 36k. I just packed my belongings and went to get a new phone at computer village.

Police go just chop your money and they won't do anything
