 gistmaster.com gathered that after concluding all the necessary formalities,he was told told that the money had already been withdrawn 10 minutes after he released his secret number.
 After investigation, two female staff of the bank were arrested and arraigned before magistrate court in Ibadan.They discharged in circumstances Onadipe as controversial.The magistrate also ordered a re-investigation into the matter.
Two years later, Onadipe is still fighting hard to get his money.Already he had petitioned the Nigeria Bar Association and the Chief Judge of Oyo State so that they can investigate the magistrate who gave the controvesial ruling.
Questions
Should a customer go through this kind of stress?
Are there no data machines to note who reveal the true identity of the person who paid the money and the person who actually received it?

  1. i lost £2,500 ($4,000) at Western Union, after giving out the details they said someone else in a different state picked the money few minuites ago.

    The CBN rule is only pay someone who uses that bank OR someone who has a chaperon who banks at that bank. Hence how come they paid someone in a state where i don't bank even if they had false ID with my name? no doubt d issue was from d bank staff cos no one else would have known my details in a short time, get fake ID in a short time and open a bank account for me in that state all withinh 20minuites


    Anyway i wrote to western union UK n in less than 2weeks gave me a full refund because, cos it was their fault.
