Fraudsters Target Gtbank Accounts, As Customers Lose Millions by AlarinkaOla: 10:23am On Jan 24, 2023
Guaranty Trust Bank (GTBank) seems to have become the go-to financial institution for fraudsters, as they target account holders in the bank led by Miriam Olusanya, the managing director.

Customers of GTBank, which is a subsidiary of Guaranty Trust Holding Company (GTCO) say they have been experiencing fraudulent and suspicious deductions from their accounts, which happens mostly during Fridays and weekends.

Such a situation was experienced by paint manufacturer and housing exterior decorator, Oyeyemi Oluwatobi, whose account with GTBank was hacked, as a suspected fraudster withdrew about N700,000 from his account.

It was gathered that his account was first debited N450,000 and transferred to one Ojo Jeremiah account held in Sparkle Bank, while N249,900 was transferred to a Sporty Internet Limited account within minutes on Saturday afternoon, January 22, 2022.

His situation is one of many, as 15,024 suspected fraudulent cases were recorded in GTBank in https://www.ripplesnigeria.com/fraudsters-target-gtbank-accounts-as-customers-lose-millions/

Gtbank tech staff are the ones breaching the banks servers to enable fraudsters gain access to customers accounts.
It is an insider's job.
There was a time I was getting debits of 100,200 and 400 naira in my GTB account balance.
No SMS alert was sent to my phone.If it wasn't for my mobile banking app that I was using to check my account I would not be aware.
I had to call the bank out on Facebook.
I was surprised,the 400 naira was refunded into my account.Others,like the 200 and 100 were never refunded.
