Corporate thief makes away with young girl's N212,000 inside a First Bank branch in Lagos

A young girl allegedly lost N212,000 to a fraudster posing as a staff in First Bank, Ire-Akari branch, Lagos.
A CCTV footage taken inside the bank shows the thief parading the floors of the bank while looking for an easy prey. No security personnel was on ground to notice his suspicious behavior.

According to Ujunwa who shared the story, the man had walked up to a girl waiting in line to deposit money and told the girl that bulk deposits are to be done in a different hall. The girl went with him into the bulk room thinking he was a staff and he collected the money, claiming he wanted to deposit it for her. As the girl waited, he distracted her and made away with the money.

There was no security personnel inside the bank to stop him as he looked around surreptitiously with the money he stole in his hand before sneaking out the door. The face of the criminal is not clear in the CCTV footage but the victim and her relatives are asking for help in identifying him.

Watch the videos below.

This is a video clip of a corporate thief who was in first banking hall walking around aimlessly, claimed to be a staff @firstbanknigeria and easily made away with the sum of #212,000 from a young girl, all because first bank ire-akari branch had no security personnel or protocols officer inside the banking hall to monitor the activities or offer help to customers within the bank. He lured her away from the queue by telling her large sum of money can only be paid in the bulk room which is his department,took the money from her, went into the bulk room, got someone to distract her then escaped through the unguarded front door of the banking hall unnoticed. Pls my fellow Nigerians, this has to stop. Many has been a victim of this in the past. Please friend rebroadcast this message till we catch this thief, more videos of this thief is coming soon..... Pls rebroadcast!!! Till we catch this thief, if for nothing rebroadcast so that people will be aware, being inside a Nigerian bank doesn't make you or your money safe, we have thieves roaming in the banking hall and the bank will declare it isn't their fault if you are robbed.
