23 year old graduate confesses How he Stole Millions with ATM cards
A 23 year old man, Ondavey weize, a graduate of the
Federal University of Agriculture in Makurdi, Benue
state has revealed how he swapped the ATM cards of
several people with invalid cards with which he used in
withdrawing large sums of money from their account.
Weize who has over sixty ATM cards in his possession
said he came into Calabar, the Cross River State
capital two weeks ago from Abuja and has succeeded
in swapping the ATM cards of many people and
withdrawn money from their account with which he
spends lavishly in hotels and night clubs.He said..
“Some of those cards are not valid but many of
them are valid. What I do is I monitor people
making withdrawals in ATM and I go close to them
and pretend to help and when I notice the persons
pin number I immediately memorise it and while
the person is counting his money, I swap his ATM
card with an invalid one and later use it to make
withdrawals from his account”.
He said he had used the method to withdraw several
millions of naira from people’s account and does not
think of returning to the school he graduated from
since 2013 to collect his certificate.
“I am not keen in collecting my certificate from my
school or going for national service because I
make enough cash from my business to take care
of my needs”.
Weize who is from Vandeikyia in Benue State said he
was introduced into the nefarious business by a friend
from Ondo State whom he met in Abuja and they were
doing “the business together and after some time we
parted our ways and have not seen each other for the
past three months”.
The young man was arrested in Calabar over the
weekend while trying to swap his card with that of
another person in one on the premises of one of the
new generation banks on Calabar Road and in his
possession was 258,000 .00 in cash
Mr Titilayo Busari, the Cross River State Police
Commissioner who paraded the young man called
people to be careful whom to ask for assistance while
making withdrawals through ATM.
‘They should ask the bank staff to help them or
should come with trusted people from their homes
to avoid falling into the wrong hands”
