A Lagos-based man has called out Zenith bank over a transaction of $11,000 (N5,065,720.00) which took place in the said bank, without his approval

The man identified simply as Mr Madox, narrating what happened, said he noticed that a total of $11,031 was missing from his domiciliary account, despite showing in his ledger balance.

According to him, he contacted Zenith Bank but was told someone made fraudulent transactions with his account.

However, calling out Zenith bank and tagging Central Bank of Nigeria, he insisted that his dollar card was in his house and such was not possible. He tweeted:

“Today I noticed that a total of $11.031 was missing from my Domiciliary account. The money is showing in my ledger balance but it’s not showing in my account balance. I have contacted your bank and they said someone made fraudulent transactions with my account.

“My dollar debit card that is inside my house and no one else has any access to it whatsoever. I have contacted your people @ZenithBank to make sure that money is returned to my account as I didn’t authorize any such withdrawals @cenbank.

“@ZenithBank I do not understand how your bank has become so porous that any fraudulent transactions are easily authorized from your bank. @cenbank

“Please anyone who can help me should please assist.

“In this hard economy. $11,031 is not 11 thousand naira. @ZenithBank please I do not want to hear any stories. I am storming your bank tomorrow to raise hell.

“Blood will be shed at that bank tomorrow. Because I don’t understand how $11,031 will be fraudulently spent from my account without my approval and you people are talking nonsense.”
