ATM Scam
ATM

THE United Bnak for Africa
, UBA, Plc has warned its customers against fresh antics of fraudsters. The bank’s Cash Officer, Acme Road Branch, Olabisi Olalekan-Ibikunle informed that the latest trend being used by ATM fraudsters to swindle their unsuspecting victims could be learnt from the experience of one of the bank’s customers who complained that he received a text message from Glomobile with the company’s logo informing him of his recent winning of their N1,000,000 cash promo. He was further asked to call the number 08057276992 for further clarifications. When he did, he was asked the banks he has accounts with and whether they are ATM active. He told them that his Intercontinental Bank and Diamond Bank accounts enjoy ATM facilities and he was then asked to go straight to any UBA ATM to key in some 19-digit numbers in the Test Fund option on the ATM machine after he had inserted his card and keyed in his PIN. He did this for his two accounts and according to him, after keying in the 19-digit numbers and pressing enter, the ATM prompted back the 19-digit number and 6015 for Diamond Bank card and 2013 for Intercontinental Bank card. The fraudsters confirmed to him that they have confirmed his ownership of the two accounts and asked him to check his account balances in the next three hours to confirm that the N1, 000,000 has been paid online into his account.Unfortunately, by the time he checked after three hours, his previous balances in the two accounts have been swept. He has reported to Glomobile we have also hot listed his DB card.
We really need to advice our customers accordingly as in this instance, the customer’s conviction was that the text was sent from GLO not any other number and how these fraudsters have been able to penetrate the Glomobile network such that a text sent from them and sent via the Glo network still shows Glo as the sender remains a mystery for now.
