Chasing The Man Behind The Screen.
Holla Hivers, Its another beautiful day, I was going to make this post yesterday but decided to do it today because today makes it one year my rich uncle got attacked by my cyber criminal. I call her rich anuty because I never knew she had millions of naira in her account until she started lamenting to us about her predicament. How did it happen? you ask. Well, before we jump into the story, I would like to welcome you to my blog
My name is Fashatioluwa, the one known as the alien from Mars. I am welcoming you to my blog. Now let's start.
It all happened last year July 25th, I was in my room when my phone started ringing non stop, I was playing game with the aim of calling back when I am done but the phone did not stop ring. I had no choice but to pick up
"Hello, mommy. Any issue," I said, particularly angry because I did not want to stop the game I was playing. Before I could say something else, she went ahead to say
"Tiolu, they are robbing mummy Michael; they are robbing her."
At that moment, different robbing scene had played through my mind. Where are the robbers holding guns? What type of gun? did they beat her? There were so many questions I wanted to ask, but the word that came out of my mouth was, "Hope they did not wound her.?"
"Wound her like how?" My mom asked in return. "But you said they were robbing her." I gave a sharp response. Well, long story short.

My aunt was called by an unknown number, telling her someone has been trying to login into her account for a while and the bank is trying to confirm if she's the one. She said she wasn't the one and began to panic, The other person on the phone told her to relax and that the bank can change her password before the person logged in.
Now, here is the twist. My aunt does not use internet banking, but the man was telling her someone already has access to her account using the internet and that it would be better for her to register the internet and change her password. As per the loving bank manager that the man was, he promised to help her through the process.
They started the process and she was sending her details and one-time passcode. After she had sent all the information, the man on the other side of the line told her.
"Thank you, ma; everything has been sorted," and immediately she started seeing a debt alert on her phone.
It started from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands until 5 million naira was deducted from her account.
The reason why my mom called me was because I was into cybersecurity at the previous company where I worked, but there was nothing I could do. The money is gone, and some people are out there spending it already.
The only help I could offer was emotional help. I called her to let her know anything that was lost can be found again if there is life. We couldn't get the money back, but we have our lives.
Before which kind of help do you want to offer 🤣
hahaha, it is gone.
One people are balling with the money already
Lol, glad you know
@fashtioluwa what did you do in the first paragraph?
Lowkey rich aunty.😂😂
And Yes there wasn't really anything you could do as there was no transfer that was made. She gave them full access to access her account. My heart goes out to her and I pray she recovers from it and stay alert because they'd definitely come again.
Yes na. Low key rich aunty. As in, millions of naira in her account. Aha.
She will now be doing gentle gentle
Well, she couldn't get the money back and it hit her really hard. She's almost got hospitalized sef
Emotional help? As a therapist?.
Dr.Fashi😂
😂😂😂
What other help can I give
I don’t have millions to give her nah.
I’ll just encourage her 😂😂
Hmmm, that's a lot of money o, how will she cope with the trauma of losing all her life savings?
Well, the did has been done already so the only help you can do is to make her stop thinking about the money. Before she hurt herself, things were happening sha
She was really hurt o
She was almost hospitalized because she was crying about it always
Sending Love and Ecency Vote!
