MAN LAMENTS  ABOUT HOW HIS GTB ACCOUNT WAS DEFRAUDED OF N2.95M

Bank frauds are becoming almost common place as many more people open up about unauthorized withdrawals from their accounts which their banks are never able to rectify.

A man took to a social media group to recount a devasting story of how his account with Guaranty Trust Bank was defrauded to the tune of N2.95m before his eyes. Read his narration below.

 "Guaranty Trust Bank or Guaranty Fraud Bank, a bank where safety of customer's fund is not guaranteed.  A pathetic story of Bankole Clement who lost his hard earned N2.95 million in a jiffy*     I have been hearing this kind of story and events severally before now, I never for once believe it could happen to me not until the 31st of December 2021 when everybody was happy that they were able to see the last day of a very strenuous year, I started receiving SMS debit alerts from my bank in order of N500000, N700000, N700000, N770000 and N280000, all debits totaling N2950000 all for Sporty Bet payments.

I couldn't think straight, I really could not process what the next action should be, either to faint, die or start crying, all my entire systems started malfunctioning and I started sweating profusely. Suddenly, I found myself on the floor of my family's bathroom in a pool of water, I heard people shouting my name from afar as if I was in a tunnel, suddenly I woke up with all my clothes wet and people started praising God. He has come back to life. I asked my wife if I was dreaming or it is a reality that the hard-earned N2.95million has been made away with? It was after I woke up that I started narrating what happened and showed the debit alerts that I got from my bank earlier before I fainted

I was advised to proceed to my bank, I walked into GTBank Agbowo Branch seemingly the nearest branch to my house to salvage this unfortunate occurrence, I was there in the company of my helpless wife who wasn't comfortable leaving me alone to travel more than 10 kilometres to the said branch. The officers on duty were very empathic and showed great concern about my situation when they heard my story,  the guy immediately left what he was doing, excused the customer he was attending to and handed him over to a colleague beside him. He gave me a dispute form to fill after running a check on the account and pronounced what I knew earlier that the entire fund had been moved and I was left with just 9052.81 on my account. 

I senced a foul play with the compliance  and complain Unit, in fact the entire Guarantee Trust Bank  because they were always quick to ask for EDD whenever huge amount of money is sent to you only  to be fond wanting when money is been moved in Batches to a sporting bet account
