2. Go to the last notification your bank sent you after you made the payment (via mobile app or text) and copy out the "TRANSACTION ID NUMBER".
3. Go to any branch of the scam artist's bank (the bank you transferred to), and ask to see the CUSTOMER SERVICE OFFICER in charge of FRAUD.
While you are there, send an email to SCAMMER'S BANK or the bank you wrongly paid to and copy CBN FRAUD DESK (anticorruptionunit@cbn.gov.ng) and also cpd@cbn.gov.ng
& contactcbn@cbn.gov.ng, this will ginger the bank to take it up fast.
After you have successfully done these, the Suspect’s account will be placed on hold.
The BVN will be permanently blocked, until he/she clears himself with the bank.
He/she can even be arrested if they show up at the bank, depending on the magnitude of their offense.
Above all confirm your transactions before you proceed to avoid these mistakes.
