We make N200,000 daily in ATM fraud, by suspect

One Kenechukwu Okafor, 21, has narrated how he used fake Automated Teller Machines (ATM) cards to defraud Point of Sales (POS) operators in Enugu State.

He said used fake ATM cards to generate phone receipts from POS machines and got the operators to pay him the amount printed on the receipts.

He said, “We have a team of five persons led by a man we all call Boss. It was Boss who first withdrew N25,000 from tone POS lady and told me to go and defraud the lady. So, I went there and she inserted my fake ATM card. When she gave me the machine, I wiped out the amount she inputted and printed out the receipt my boss used in previous transactions to look as if it was my own.

“But the lady was vigilant enough and caught me. She told me that the receipt I printed wasn’t my transaction. When I tried to argue, she raised the alarm and people attempted mob me.

“We make N200,000 every day from the fraud business before I was caught,” he said.
