If your bank account is link to your phone number, is good for you to avoid these things for protections

There are things we do that we take as normal but can potentially make us lose and regret later. Many who have connected their account numbers to their phone numbers are potentially at risk according to what happened to me. If you have connected your account to your phone number, you can take the extra mile to secure your account.

Firstly, If you have connected your account numbers to your phone number using it to conduct transactions, it is safe but you have to make sure that your phone is always with you to avoid being robbed. My phone was stolen, unknown to me the thief used my phone number that was connected to my account to steal my money. The possibility that my money could be stolen while my phone was missing did not come into my mind, so I figured the robbery would not be able to reach my account without a PIN. After a while, I went back to my account, but I could not because "Insufficient funds" showed me. I didn't have enough money. I checked my balance and saw N25 as my equilibrium.

Then I went to the bank to complain because I was still uncertain whether he stole or not the phone, printed all the transactions made by my account and I saw those I did not make. The transactions that were made were all printed. It was said to I always report to the bank when my phone is robbed, as the telephone number could be used to plunder my money. I had to block the account.

Secondly, you must stop borrowing people because you don't know what to do with your telephone. Without you know some people might just move your money to another bank account. This is achieved not only through the telephone number but through your banking applications or payment applications such as Opay, to which your account has been attached. Your protection is not enough as we have some people who hack so make sure your devices are still personal.

Finally, please stop giving your telephone numbers to strangers. Yahoo boys are now using your account phone number as it seems that it's just a number and none of them doubt them.
