Dear Customers and Friends,

This should interest you!!!

Pls pass the news around

*THIS IS A NEW ONE.*

PLEASE BE GUIDED AND ENLIGHTEN OUR CUSTOMERS, FRIENDS AND
RELATIVES............................

This seems like the latest trend being used by ATM fraudsters to swindle
their unsuspecting victims.

One of our customers just complained yesterday evening that he received
a text message from GLOMOBILE with their

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 those accounts are tied to ATMs.

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 2 a/cs  as above 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 DBPLC card and
2013 for ICB card. The fraudsters confirmed to him that they have

confirmed his ownership of the the 2 a/cs and asked him to check his a/c
balances in the next 3 hours to confirm that the N1,000,000 has

been paid online into his account.

Unfortunately, by the time he checked after 3 hours, his previous
balance in the 2 a/cs have been swept. He has reported to GLOMOBILE

we have also hotlisted 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.

THIS IS A NEW IDEA THIS PEOPLE WILL NEVER STOP. PLEASE LETS PASS THIS
INFORMATION. TO OUR CUSTOMERS ,FRIENDS AND RELATIVES.

Thanks & Best Regards
