Could this be an inside Job ?

Interesting story line there. I do not work for CFC Stanbic except that i am also a dissatisfied customer who fled.

That not withstanding, as an Information Systems Risk specialist I noticed one thing when CFC merged with Stanbic and around that time I started having trouble with my accounts. It so happened that human was interfacing between two systems i.e. The then CFC system and the Stanbic System. I know that alot of work has been done to ensure that this no longer happens (No human interfacing between the two systems), but it still explains what might have transpired during the transition period.

I can imagine fictitious accounts, illegal transfers..... happening like in your case e.t.c.

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
