Your BANK Account could be Emptied without an Alert

Dear All, Please let's be very careful.. There is a new HIGH TECH FRAUD in town called the SIM SWAP FRAUD, and hundreds of persons are already VICTIMS.

How does it work?
1 A new fraud called SIM SWAP has started. Your phone network will momentarily go blind / zero (No Signal / Zero Bars) and after a while a call will come through.

2 The Person on the other end of the call will tell you that he is calling from (your cell phone company) depending on your network and that there is a problem in your mobile network.

3 He will instruct you to Please press 1 on your phone to get the network back.

- Please at this stage don't Press anything, Just cut or END the call.

If you press 1, the network will appear suddenly and almost immediately go blind again (Zero Bars) and by that action, your phone is #HACKED.

Within a second they will empty your bank account, thereby causing you untold damage.

What you will experience.
It will appear as though your line is without Network, meanwhile your SIM has been SWAPPED.
The danger here is that, you will not get any alert of any transactions, so please those of us doing USSD Banking and Mobile Banking BEWARE. Let's be very careful.

Please, forward to your contacts, loved ones and friends. The fraud is increasing day by day.

*NOTICE!*

HOW TO KNOW A PROGRAMMED OR MANIPULATED CARD READER....

Party agents should take note of the following as they get to the polling units.

1. Agent must arrive to your polling units as early as possible, at least before accreditation begins. Once accreditation begins, you won't be able to detect a manipulated card reader.

2. Upon arrival to your polling units, agent must verify the card reader brought to your unit for the election. Identify the Presiding Officer (PO) for your unit, and request him to present the card reader to the agents onground.

3. Request the PO to put on the Card Reader (if it is not already on), and request him/or her to click on "query icon" on the smart card reader.

4. Check that the card reader shows zero "0" upon clicking the query icon. If it shows zero, it is okay to be used for accreditation. If it shows any other figure before comencement of accreditation, the card reader has been pre programmed.

5. If confirmed that a figure other than "0" is displayed, agent should raise alarm and inform agents of other parties, and no accreditation should take place in that unit until the card reader is cleared.

Please this is very important as rigging in any election starts from the polling unit.

Agents should be smart enough not to miss these Steps...
