Lady confrønted by POS merchants in Calabar, Cross River State, after allegedly attempting to sc@m them.
According to those present, she came to make a cash deposit of ₦5,200. After the POS merchant collected the cash, entered the amount, and requested her account details, the lady asked to hold the POS device herself so she could input the details. While doing so, she allegedly changed the transaction amount from ₦5,200 to ₦52,000.
A man who confrønted her claimed his wife, who also operates a POS business nearby, had earlier informed him that the same lady allegedly tried to use the same tactic on her but was caught before the transaction was completed. He said he rushed to the scene after hearing about the incident and discovered that the lady had allegedly attempted the same method again. However, the POS merchant noticed the change and corrected the amount before completing the transaction.
