Be Careful When Making A Transaction At A POS Terminal (Here Is Why) by Tiwaz2: 7:21pm On Nov 17, 2020 |
Please, be careful when making a transaction at a POS terminal. Some POS agents can send your ATM card details to fraudsters. • HOW IT IS BEING DONE When you go to a POS terminal to make a transaction, he/she will collect your ATM card and slot it into an ATM machine. After few seconds, he/she will tell you that the POS machine is malfunctional (i.e not working properly). He/She will tell you that you should wait while he/she bring another POS machine inside. When he/she goes inside, your ATM card will be snapped (including the surface and below) with a smartphone. He/She will surely come out with another POS machine, but you will not know that your ATM card had been snapped and sent to fraudsters! The fraudsters will now use your ATM card details and make transactions online! 190 Likes 23 Shares

Best safety is to have ATM account. That is a bank account you will used to make atm or Pos withdrawal and you will not keep substantial amount or your life savings in the account. Once fraudster get hold of ur card number and that 3digit number at the back of atm card, getting your pin is small case. Be cyber smart! 119 Likes 4 Shares |

supportnija:Oga, listen and learn from him. Years back, I ordered refurbished common rail injection units for a truck I owned back then from the UK. They sent me an invoice. I asked how to pay, all they said was to provide them with my card number and expiry date. I had not finished calling the number over the phone when debit alert entered. I was like how did they do it? ![]() Meanwhile I was here in Lagos oh. 250 Likes 18 Shares |

Smh, some folks don't know how things dey go at all. Go and be careless with your atm na, Na body go tell you when debit alerts dey rapture for your inbox. I'll rather go and queue at the ATM than use it to withraw from POS. It's only good for paying in imo. And the way banks give every tom and Harry POS and yet still refuse to track down scammers unless sufficient force is brought to bear is enough to dissuade anybody from messing around with POS agents. If I was a thief I don't even need to snap when I can easily memorize the digits. E go do you like film. 51 Likes 1 Share |

Some people here are just displaying ignorance because they don't know how far ahead cyber criminals are. With all the levels of security, American Government & European organizations got taken by Hushpuppi & crew. Once your card details have been accessed, the only remaining thing is your PIN which they can bypass. They know how to get the OTP by try & error. 48 Likes 2 Shares |
