Scam Alert!!! JUMPED could wipe out your account balance

ATTENTION PLEASE!
There is a new scamming technique in town called
‘JUMPED’.

Ooduarere reports that a scammer sends you a real deposit of money into your phone using his number.

This is not a fake deposit he really sends you money, a small amount like 20,000 or 30,000 Naira and you won’t even doubt it.

After sending this money the scammer then launches a withdrawal on your alert sim Number.

When you receive the message on your phone that you have received some money the natural thing is to be excited and then want to check your balance.

To check balance you’ll need to enter your pin.

When you put in a PIN, you would have validated his withdrawal request on your account.

Your account will automatically allow his withdrawal request and take out the money.

The trick is to lure you with a small amount initially to steal from you.

To protect yourself from this scam whenever you receive such an unexpected deposit to check your balance first enter in deliberately the wrong Code Number.

This will cancel any withdrawal requests. Afterward, check your balance with your real code number.

With these new electronic money transfers and Artificial Intelligence coming in let’s do this all the time to avoid being fooled by these scammers who are always coming up with new methods to try and steal from us.

Always share such information with family and colleagues to keep them updated and always be alert.

Please be informed.
