Hi Skunks,
On Friday the 21st of October I noticed something strange with my Cfc Stanbic Account. While trying to withdraw money at the International House
ATM, I realized from the system that avaibale balance was 300 kshs and Actual balance was the money which I was supposed to be having in my account ( lets for the
sake of this discussion say its X shillings)
I reported this issue to the Bank branch and they mentioned that there was a possible problem
On Saturday while trying to withdraw money from the Buru Buru ATM, I got a message insuficient funds. On gettting a mini statement it shows VISA ATM withdrwals of equal amounts i.e x/3 done thrice to 3 decimal points which if added up summed up to x.
This looked like a well calculated hacking job. What I wondered is
cfc cards are not allowed for internet transactions ( at least mine) and furthermore they have no numbers on them. I have had my Card on me since opening my account .
After follow up, they told me that these transactions happened in Mozambique.
My question is what possible scenarios led to the hacking of my account and loss of cash as I have never used it on the net or swiped it anywhere ?
Im puzzled and told it has happened with a number of accounts at Cfc. If you are with the bank, be very careful.
Regards
Kevin
