So yesterday this unknown guy sent me a WhatsApp message asking me if I could stake 500 Naira on a 217 sure odds. I told him yes, he then told me to fund my sporty bet account with 500 naira and screenshot it to him to see I actually have the fund to play the games, I sheepishly did all that.
And shortly after that, he sent me a link directing me to follow the procedures he will issue me strictly. He said I should click on the link and input my phone number and password, which I did, but I didn’t see any game. Not more than 40 minutes later, I started receiving debit alerts of 20k, 2k, and 200 respectively from my bank. Only then I realized I have been scammed. I tried logging in to my sporty bet account but my password has been changed, I tried doing a reset password but all 5 attempts of the day have been used by this scammer to change my password to his. Realizing I don’t have access to my account anymore, I called the customer care number and explained it all to them. They quickly deactivated the account so the hacker won’t have the power to withdraw the money from the sporty bet account into his bank account. This is the unfortunate fellow’s number: 07044895705
