The new way to get conned> BEWARE TO WITHDRAW MONIES KWA AGENT

Sasa there is place I like to withdraw monies na ATM card. The place is usually chill na kuna 2 yellow yellow attendants huwa wameacha kifua kikuu kitembee na ukitoa pesa you get a chance ya kuosha mesho juu kawaida huwa ni booty short wamevaa. So I withdraw healthy amounts there na sijawai poteza pesa ama kupelekwa in circles. Generally it’s usually a very good experience. :D:D

I remember I was supposed kutoa pesa, but as I was passing there I found the owner, very rough looking Ninja. I asked where are the usuals, he said corona has given them an upgrade, now they work from home aka no job. I wasn’t a fan of his puns so I left and started looking for a new place to get both services, Eye cleansing and cash.

Kidogo kidogo I bumped into a newly setup agent I hadn’t identified in my previous inspections. The attendant a very joyous 21 yr old whose voice makes you feel just well. Her smile was like a ray of sunshine in a painting. Her cologne was subtle and pleasant, lets say mtoto ameumbika kabisa. She was showing some cleavage and when she turned to look for the machine her back imejaa jaa kama ile ya Korazone. I remember I made some dry jokes of withdrawing monies while still having some in my wallet we had a big laugh.

So I decided to withdraw a semi healthy amount just to test the waters, weeeh she gave me among them 4 k OF 1000 NOTES and 5,100 ksh of loose 100/ and 50 bob/ notes. It took me a minute to count as the notes were so many, she kept complimenting my confirmation skills telling me most customers don’t even confirm because she can be trusted. After 2 counts 900 was missing:mad:, she claimed a oversight and she topped the 900 at once. Kawaida I sign a book on the other one, I sign no book at this agent, I wonder why but I dismiss, but only after thorough confirmation. I was satisfied my amount is correct, I left asap as a long line of men was forming behind me.

3 days later, ndio natafuta atm card kwa nguvu sana. Kumbe sina, miss korazone alibaki nayo. I remembered a case where they put a camera on the customers side and review footage to read ATM card pin. However, mimi lazima nifiche pin na mkono mmoja and change positions as I put each digit (I’m paranoid like that) so I was sure hawajaipata. Nikaelekea hapo and met her. There were 3 CCTV cameras are on top of the customers side all pointing down. Nikajua maninja hapa wameoshwa na maji ya sabuni. I asked for mycard nikapewa , I confirmed my monies at bank the next day they are okay. Phew.

BEWARE

Apo ndo unaitishaga hio nyap na maubaya

Shukran for the heads up!

Good lesson. I say chunga pesa yako hata kama ni shillingi

@MarkMarco good heads-up, in the signing book they have both names & ID number, from CCTV they steal the PIN…Jackpot! Kweli majamaa wameoneshwa kivumbi hii Kenya.

Thanks for this.

wadau wajue the playing field imegeuka. sasa ni kubaya… The heads up is in order

Hao slayqueens ulikula ama ulipoteza pesa yako tu?

Sina thermal image lakini nimekula a few spots alafu nahama ndio isilete kuzoeana na stori ya pesa. I will bring a hekaya I once ate and withdrew after refusing to send ‘‘fare’’

Ebu elimisha Mimi mkubwa.if they have the id no,names na pin what is the likely scenario assuming nimeenda na ATM card yangu?

This trick targets MPESA mostly… they will do a SIM replacement to your number with your details and they activate MPESA, since they have the stolen pin from there unapigwa mwosho mmoja, mpesa balance gone then they apply for Fuliza, mshwari, tala, okash, branch n.k… remember most guys also use same pin for mobile banking. So if you got the m-banking apps ( they access thru ussd) with same pin as mpesa, you get screwed badly.

Now I get.asanta

kwanza hii ni mbaya sana, sim hukuwa replaced while you are still on call, unapata no service. before ujue nini inaendelea, your money is quickly evacuated from you

asante kwa hio heads-up

someone must step up and tell boishaud asipatikane

Umetuchanua mkubwa. Barikiwa sana

Mimi nikitoa pesa kwa MPESA. i asked them kama naweza toa bila ID. wakikubali when asked ID. I SWAP hizo number. kama it ends with 7965. Nasema 6597.

Humbwer, brare fwakin

Niaje Muchiri

Hapa the cue is usually to register two mpesa lines. Safaricom these days sends texts to an alternative line if you prompt sim replacement…
