She said the man asked her to give him the money she wanted to deposit and her filled deposit slip so he can facilitate the process quickly. She said the man also asked her if she had filled her bank verification number BVN form which ends this month. When she replied no, the man gave her a form to fill and then proceeded to help her pay her money at the teller point.
Done with filling the BVN form, Ruqayatt said she looked up to give the man the form and also find out if he'd paid her money but he was no where in the banking hall.
Realizing what happened, Ruqayyat began crying. She said the money was meant for her boss who she'd just started working with less than two weeks ago
"The money belongs to my boss. I have just been employed two weeks ago and I don’t know where to get a refund for her,” she said sobbingly. Many bank customers were in disbelief about Rukayat’s story, while a bank security guard ordered her out of the hall" - she told Newsbreak

ReplyDeleteWhat will you not hear from naija. Trust no one biko.
ReplyDeleteOREO GRANDE
Eeeeyaaa see her face.nne sorry u hear?
ReplyDeleteYea it happens often. Its a pity she got duped.
ReplyDeleteThis has been happening for sometime in the Banking system, it happened to a junior colleague of mine 2 years ago, he was asked alongside some other people that those whose deposit is above 100k should fill the teller and submit , after doing that the person went into the supposed Bilk room and didnt come out again. When my company decided to take it up the Police said the Guy is the Fraudster and should be arrested. Happened at GTB Opebi to be precise, i don't know why appropriate security measures haven't been put in place since then. GTB is becoming something else!
ReplyDeleteNa so una go dey claim say una wise. Just imagine ur narrative essay. Too poor. Hw can you allow soap enter ur eyes when you're are standing near a stream.

ReplyDeleteDummy.its a scam and banks keep warning people not to hand over their money to anyone except a teller.
ReplyDeleteLazy Nigerians that never want to stay on a queue and always looking for a shorter way out.
What a pity!!
ReplyDeleteThe bank should check their surveillance camara
ReplyDeleteHave also be duped same way in owerri and it was inside gt bank.it seems they use charm and most of d staff working there are aware of all this

ReplyDeleteThis is too harsh ..ordering her out is bs ..they could hav confirmed it from the CCTV cameras.this is a lesson ohh I won't give my money to any bastard unless at the counter
ReplyDelete~make I go take one bottle of beer~
can this story be true? is this lady NEW in Lagos? anyway, if there is CCTV in the banking hall, the man can be tracked
ReplyDeleteThey should watch the CCTV Camera... i forgot my wallet one day in a Bank and when i came back it was gone.. i created a scenario when the bank refused to help n we finally watched the CCTV video only to realize it was stolen by one of their customer... i got my money back... if wat she claim is true.. let them watch to the video.. who knows they might know the person...
ReplyDeleteNAME THE BANK!!! THEY SHOULD HAVE A SECURITY CAMERA SO THE PICTURE OF THE MAN COMES UP WITH THE STORY!!! IF THE BANK CANT HELP OUT, THEN IT SHOWS THEY DONT CARE ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THEIR CUSTOMERS WHOSE MONIES THEY CLAIM TO KEEP SAFE! I SAY THE BANK PRODUCE THE PICTURE OF THE MAN, OR YOU NAME THE BANK AND PUT THEM TO SHAME, AND PREVENT US FROM DOING BUSINESS WITH THEM AS THEY DONT CARE ABOUT OUR SAFETY!

ReplyDeletei guess there are cctv in banking halls. please they should identify this said fraudster
ReplyDeleteNa wa o, God help us
ReplyDeleteBe careful people! My cousin who works in a bank had informed me of this new scam system by fraudsters. Don't be impatient when you get to the bank, queue on line and wait till it's your turn. Na hurry hurry do this girl now. How does it concern the bank, she should go outside and do her wailing so that any one who wants to help will help her. She can't be allowed to constitute a nuisance in the banking hall na. Make she thank God say na 14k, she will get help; if it were 140k, I doubt that she will find who will give her in this Buhari's government wey everywhere dry like bush meat so.
ReplyDeleteWelcome to Lagos
ReplyDeleteImpatience,sorry sha but u could ve waited 2pay in..
ReplyDeleteThis same thing happened to my friend in May
ReplyDeleteJJC, welcome to lagos, wetin do ur hand. Sori
ReplyDeletethis is now common in Nigerian Banks, I almost fell victim in one branch of fidelity bank along ajah express... this guy was dressed like a staff. we shouldnt let this story die the cctv recording of the bank should be viewed.
ReplyDeleteLol. Jonzing things
ReplyDeleteLet the bank review there CCTV
ReplyDeleteOrdering Her Out Of The Banking Hall Is Wrong. All Banks Have CCTV, So A Proper Investigation Would Have Ensued... Naija
ReplyDeleteEyaaa that is becoming a trend now oh!!!
ReplyDeleteAwwww not nice
ReplyDeleteI've seen dis happen in a bank at owerri but d young man was caught, I swear wen they approach u, u wud believe dem cos dey dress like staffs, pls always talk to officials wearing der staff ID
ReplyDeleteDon't act dumb! The video camera cctv for the said date should be made available for . It seems like a new tactics.
ReplyDeleteMuumu, she should be grateful the amount wasn't more than that.
ReplyDeleteOmo toyi o gbon.
ReplyDeleteThe bank always put up a notice saying "DO NOT GIVE YOUR MONEY TO ANYONE WHO IS NOT A CASHIER TO PAY IN MONEY FOR YOU". that's her headache. She will learn
ReplyDeleteNa wah ooo! one has to be very careful

ReplyDeleteAwww dis is wat we kal cooperate robbery
ReplyDeletechai loool its not fair now haba ....
ReplyDeleteBut why are people so wicked?... They have taking this stealing to another level o!
ReplyDeleteIt could still have been a bank staff...too many rotten eggs working a coperate society
ReplyDeleteIs there no cctv camera in the bank and why will the security man order her out instead of initiating an investigation? Sorry lady, hope you don't lose your new job.
ReplyDeletePele ti e, na Lagos be dis. Dave
ReplyDeleteOlodo
ReplyDeleteNo video camera to validate her story?
ReplyDeleteHi Linda,I really feel for her and i can imagine what she is going through. If the 14k will help a long way, Please let me know with her account details so i can have the money forwarded to her.. I sympathize with her...
ReplyDeleteThanks and have a great day..
Ehyah sorry #sadface#
ReplyDeleteSo sorry, be wise next time.
ReplyDeleteSuppose dere r security cameras in d banking hall? Such criminality should be fish out easily..naija smh

ReplyDeleteHahahahahaha Roukaita abi na Rougegaita...see your self were you resemble monkey thats wearing suite, carry your dirtY smelly looking self to the bank and want to Rob customers mtchewww go and sit don jare. They did well by throwing you out 419 arm robber or na bank deposit slip robber.
ReplyDeleteThis VERY LIKELY to be true. Exactly the same thing happened to me at Intercontinental bank 12years ago. The Intercontinental Bank on Toying street to be precise. I asked where the bulk room was and I was told to go upstairs, I met a well-dressed man and asked him where I could make a deposit, he asked if I wanted to make a deposit and I said yes, he asked for the money and the deposit slip and asked me to sit in a chair and wait for him. I was actually pleased at the "supposed excellent customer service". Until a staff that saw me talking to the guy came to tell me that the person was not a staff of the bank. I caused so much scene this got to the bank manager and we viewed the CCTV and saw that the man had run out of the banking hall. The bank said since they did not see the actual event as there was no CCTV camera upstairs there was nothing the bank could do about it. I cried so much that day, because my brother-in-law just gave me the money to take back to school. I closed my account with the bank immediately because I was so angry and bitter.
ReplyDeleteEko lo ma ti gbon, Aja lo ma ti ja
ReplyDeleteHmmm she's a fool, how can she give money to who she doesn't no before to pay into your accnt? Mtcheeeew!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI am willing to bet that they bank Security is in on this. Why order the customer out instead of checking their bank security cam to identify the crooks face and send it all over the place? That crook is gonna come back to that same place and repeat the act.
ReplyDeleted bank should use cctv to find d man. too bad she feel a victim. Sorry young lady
ReplyDeleteNd all d bank could do is work her out? What nonsense, dn't they have survellance camera? They should have litened 2 the girl rather than working her out rubbish
ReplyDeleteLol. Ode! No CCTV for bank? And which bank sef
ReplyDeleteThe bank should look through their CCTV, simple! Don't just throw away her accusation and expect nothing to happen. What if it's true?
ReplyDeleteNigerian security is terrible. Did the bank arrange the duping and hide the culprit inside the bank. I'm saying this because there is no way on earth a woman who claimed to have experienced such terrible incident should be thrown out by Guard. They have all the surveillances needed in carry out investigations. It is unfair that someone got robbed inside bank and the bank didn't fight for it but would like to involve Nigerian police and military if they got robbed.
ReplyDeleteInstead of the stupid bank staff walking her out, they were supposed to check their CCTV footage to even try to ascertain if she was saying the truth.
ReplyDeleteHmm...we learn everyday
ReplyDelete
ReplyDeleteNa wao. I think the bank didn't handle d issue well. What about the CCTVs inside the banking hall? The bank should have checked the CCTV to ascertain d legitimacy of her claim. This can't happen in any American bank. Sorry Nija people.
Engr Steve
No cctv in the bank? Why would they order her out of the bank that way.
ReplyDeletePls dont blame her have been a victim of this stuff in owerri.i think some of the bank staff r the one doing it
ReplyDeleteOne of the reasons why Nigeria will never move forward...there was a complaint, the best way to approach the issue is to properly investigate her case rather than walk her out.until when will Nigeria start looking into matters rather than run away from it...It's such a pity dear, God will surely prove Himself that your boss won't sack you,just have faith nnugo!
ReplyDeleteLinda, I would like to help out..Is it possible to have the lady in question send her account number so that the money she lost can be repaid and she doesn't loose her job? Let us know please...seriously
ReplyDeleteOne idiot nearly did same thing to me yesterday but as a wise boy i catch him red handed.. Lagos na wa!!!
ReplyDeletesooo sad...bt since u r already in d bank y dnt u jst deposit d moni urself...definitely d fraudster is nt a bankker. beware f men in suit
ReplyDeleteShe should. Sue d bank
ReplyDeletewho the h*ll took this picture... she's crying and the best they could do is snap her like that. it is ridiculous
ReplyDeleteEeyah....
ReplyDeleteA country where no one cares anymore
ReplyDeleteBanks do have "staff" within the banking hall asking people to fill BVN forms. I have seen this myself even in a Victoria Island branch of a big bank. The Security man had no right to send her out and should be reprimanded. Having been admitted into the bank in the first place, she was entitled to be treated with dignity. Her matter should be investigated by the bank's security department .
ReplyDeleteevery banking hall must have an operational cctv system by law. Her boss must file a complaint at the bank headquarters to see the cctv. Lawyers in the U.S beg for cases like these.
ReplyDeletePele rukaqyat
ReplyDeleteCctv pls
ReplyDeleteIn as much as the bank is not liable for the loss. It is the bank's responsibility as a public service business to investigate a crime committed on their premises. All banks have surveillance cameras and they can be used to identify the suspect.
ReplyDeleteNa wa o... This one na professional robbery, they are now using tactics o, ppl shld be very meticulous
ReplyDelete#ITwillONLYgetBETTER
#itMUSTendINpraise
In Lagos n Abuja, pls shine thy eyes.
ReplyDeleteSue the bank because it happened in their premises
ReplyDeleteShe's not lying v heard similar story too
ReplyDeleteI think, a bank cctv should be seen to validate her story.
ReplyDeleteview full story on Nigeria Newsbreak newsbreak.ng
ReplyDeleteGod forgive me coz I laughed. Seeing her picture alone made me laugh. It's well. Twice beaten, once shy.
ReplyDeleteThat was how I went to pay in the bank and a guy offered to assist me coz the queue was long. He even said he knew me very well. Meanwhile, I've never seen anyone like him before. He said I should remain on the queue while he goes to pay the money. Trust me, I quickly followed him to the counter. I watched him pay the money, collected my teller and even asked the cashier if he's posted the money.
Please be vigilant.
Don't be carried away.
❤❤❤ THE PROPHETESS
Nawa for GTBank oooo. #GodIsWatching
ReplyDeleteWhy would the security ask her to get out instead of taking her to the fraud area, running the camera footage to see what took place and getting the police involved if it is true? They have a duty to investigate all incidents of fraud that take place in their institution. Why they treat her like that? The bank needs to be named and shamed!
ReplyDeleteToo bad!
ReplyDeleteExactly why would they order her out? the security officer acted on someones order. These bloody bank workers are so heartless... corporate slaves.
ReplyDeleteBanks be acting like those cctv they got ain't functioning. mtchewwww....sorry dear, na everyday we dey learn for this Lagos wey we dey so.
ReplyDeleteI would have sent her out too. This was not fault but hers.
ReplyDeletein lagos, we learn everyday. i never knew something like the more you see, the less you understand could ever happen to me not until i bought a phone which later turned out to be soap.... i couldn't help but laugh that day sha. sorry dear, now you've learnt.
ReplyDeleteThat was a very stupid thing she did. How could she have been so lazy to give a total stranger money to pay for you. How gullible can that be!
ReplyDeleteEh yah. Very unfortunate. In the Uk, most banks or even company staff wear uniform. I wonder if that can work in Nigeria. At least one would know who they're giving their money to.
