When people refuse to work the only thing they can venture into will surely be scamming and nowadays lot of people had taken scamming as their full time job because the rate at which one receives calls or sms alert on fraudulent schemes is now on the high side.
There are numerous ponzi schemes out there that people rush into to double or triple their money. Well I can't blame those that rush to ponzi schemes, the high rate of inflation that most countries are currently passing through also added to the quest to look for quick way out from poverty.
Almost every week, I do receive sms alert of winning certain amount of money from God knows who but I always neglect it because I've never engaged in any activity that might lead me to that. And I'm always careful of clicking links for raffle draws cause of hacking my social media accounts. Scammers has surely reached out to me numerous times but by the grace of God they haven't been successful. Today I will share one of my experiences with you all.
Early last month, a number called my line and told me that he is calling on behalf of my bank (he didn't tell me the name of the bank) to help me rectify my ATM card challenges. He said the bank received complaints from me that I haven't been able to use my ATM card effectively.
Immediately, I've sensed that he is a fraudster because I withdrew with my ATM card that same day before he calls and none of my cards had issues so I decided to play along so that he can waste his recharge card.
So I told him that I'm operating five different banks because of my businesses which was a lie, I wanted him to be happy 😁 and I told him to tell me which of the banks so that I can bring out my ATM card. He told me to mention all the banks am using so that he can check their lists to know which one has the withdrawal problem.....lolzzzzz imagine the idiot.
I mentioned five different banks which I haven't even stepped my feet into. He gladly picked one out of the five wrong banks that I mentioned and told me once I call out the necessary thing he needed, he will ensure quick processing of a new ATM card for me in less than three days.
Along the line I was called by my Sister to help her with house chores so I told the fraudster that he should make it quick that I need to attend to another thing. Then he told me the only thing he needed is the numbers in front of my ATM card, expiring date, the three digit CVV at the back and my card pin.
Then I laughed profusely after wasting his recharge card for almost 12minutes, then I told him to get a life and look for a profitable job or else he will end in hell fire. I insulted him and could you believe the guy started raining curses on me which makes me hang up the call by myself. I'm just grateful I wasn't scammed that I was able to detect his dubious call very early.
But some people aren't that lucky, they fall to fraudsters tricks and lose their hard earn money. There are numerous ways these fraudsters can use, everyone needs to be extremely careful of their dubious tactics. Make sure not to click links on any of your social media platforms and don't give out your details for give aways. Please be wise!
