Mtn Negligence Caused A Nairalander To Access A Stranger's Account. by triplec93(m): 12:40pm On Sep 28, 2020
I recently bought a mtn Sim card from a dealer and I got registered afterwards. As it is my routine I usually recharge online from my account. On that day I made a recharge of 400 naira. But I noticed my account balance was adnormal due to the notification I received,( Bal of 67 naira only). That one shock me. I immediately checked the balance, what I saw almost got me a heart attack, the balance futher reduced to 57 naira. I taught my village people have used Yahoo boys to teach me a lesson. I was screaming all over the place, I immediately had a second thought to check the SMS notification and I noticed the account number wasn't mine. Y would I be accessing what is meant to be a person's most private info. I immediately ran to my bank the next day, and it was confirmed that my second Sim was resold to me. That situation reminds me of countless stories of which innocent person's were arrested or even killed over the carelessness of these people. I reached out to their phc office despite explaining my ordeal to the security man. The matter wasn't treated with urgency as I expected I was locked outside the gate as well as other customers under the scorching sun, I left afterwards due to time factor. Please I need advice on what to do.
This is especially annoying because many people are dead or are in jail due to this high level carelessness. Mtn and other defaulting network providers should be held accountable for their actions not the Unsuspecting masses.

Just make sure you have evidence that you bought the sim card just in case of any issue in future.
Don't stress yourself too much because this country system is fuccked up.
Ditch the sim and go get another one.

When I got to the bank the customer care representative even complained of how an individual was accessing the account of indorama, withdrawing millions of niara and the bank is made to pay it up, based on this shit.
