My Name is Priscilla Faba

Good morning guys. I think we need to expose these two banks through any social networks platform which are available. And the next step should be that we annoy the fnb bank with a lot of e-mails which come from all of us, we should do that continuously until they give us their attention and solve this problem alternative we can leave the bank for another one. FNB e-mail: care@fnb.co.za or you may use fnb complaints online facility.
FNB needs to be audited, they are surely part of the scam. I received the same sms. After a few days, Egoli rewards tried to debit firstly an amount of R135 and then R119 from my account but they failed because my FNB account had no funds but what annoys me most is that because of that I encountered bank charges of R17 and who is supposed to pay for that because I will not. I shutting my FNB account. I honestly cannot deal. I am a student I do not work and I cannot afford to have the little that I make taken away from me. Whoever this scumbag is has made millions out of us.
HELLO GUYS THE SCUMBAGS ALSO MANAGED TO GO TO MY BANK AND WITHDRAW THAT R135. I WILL GO TO MY BANK TO MAKE AN INQUIRY HOW ACTUALLY THEY MANAGED TO GET MY ID AND BANK ACCOUNT DETAILS.
This is insane! I got the same sms yesterday. My colleague got the same sms as well.
I have received the sms and it debited today. I am using FNB, I used the app to reverse and stop. Immediately got my money back. I was told by the bank that you don't get charged for reversal if you are reversing via app but only get charged when you go to the branch. Also this won't affect your credit score if the amount is under R200. Well I don't know how true is that about credit score
I also had the same scam debiting my account on 31 January 2019.
FNB is scamming us! I am currently waiting for them to take my call. Its been 10 minutes waiting on the line. What should we do
Guys our money is not safe with fnb i think we must change it before they deduct all our money
Yoh! Me too. Double debited for R97!
Hi guys so what is this Egoly Rewards all about? because I never gave out my bank details nor my Id number .. I did try to cancel that after they sent me sms but today they deducted my money .. I don't know what is ot all about I tried to call land line no one answers
Fnb is taking us for a [censored] shame!
True that ..why didn't they prevent that, they nomarly give us notice about fraud so why not this one
I also received same message and they deducted a R135 from my fnb acc, I am wondering where are these scammers got my id number and my acc
Why it seems like most of us who have received this sms are with FNB ?
Dear FNB do something about this or else I'm leaving, cant be reversing [censored] that I didn't authorize all the time...
It isn't only one bank. I bank with Nedbank and they have deducted this amount as well. The banks KNOW about these scams. I don't know WHY they honour these scammed debit orders.
Morning all yes also bank with FNB and received the sms yesterday and the debit went through today. There is no way FNB can deny they know nothing about this when so many customers are crying foul play. If its that easy for scammers to get their hands into our accounts and FNB turns a blind eye then FNB are either the ones behind this or working in collusion with these people
I also received the massage from Egoli Rewards which l don't know anything about and what worries me they have my ID no: how did they get my details we are no longer safe.How do I go by to tress these people as their phone is not working.Please advice
I also recieved it and this morning the debit order went through, what is this. How did they get hold of our ID numbers.
I am with standard bank and for some reason I have been calling since morning and they are not picking up, can't get through to them to reverse this debit
hi, i am banking with Absa, i also received the same message.
May one of the banking representatives in charge, respond to all of us concerned citizens please
can this be addressed by the all the banks in SA, let them investigate the scam and strengthen security measures to prevent this.
Banks: ABSA, FNB, etc, please respond
bloody hell! i also received the same text 2 days ago, and today these blood suckers debited my account. im so pissed right now.
i received the same sms i called it goes to cell phone number not call center saying subscriber not available.
Today i received sms from my bank regards deductions.
I am with FNB and I received the same SMS yesterday. I responded with a CANCEL, and also tried to call the [protected] number but it kept on saying Line busy.
Indeed this morning they debited me as the SMS had said. Please check your transaction history guys, this SMS is no joke.
Haibo I also received this message yesterday and I didn’t pay attention to it and this morning I woke up to a debit, FNB must do something about this unthorised debits.
Hi Lesedi, and now everyone has your ID number since you copied your sms to here :(
Same scam yesterday... I've just responded it to opt out or cancel
Yep scam, they just debited my acc.. after they sent the text yesterday... Will just have to reverse and stop payment... If it happens again im moving banks
I also received the message yesterday and they debited midnight.Im also leaving FNB.My ID NO is their reference yet 1st time to hear about them.
I also got similar sms today.
I have also received the sms..i’m with fnb
I’m also an fnb account holder. Seemingly, it’s only fnb clients suffering from this same problem. The fire it must be someone there. Meaning its an inside job happing to steal from its clients
I received this "egoli rewards " message this morning and what worries me most is who gave these people my ID number? I am also a Fnb customer.
Last week my nedbank account was also debited with R117 by a company unkown to me. I'm worried our banks are doing nothing to protect us from these scammers
Hi, I also received the same SMS. I wonder where do they get people's ID No.
Hi guys I also received the same sms and am banking with Fnb the previous week it was one called Shesha i called them luckily they picked up and told me someone must hve my details and doing all this- Zime
Also received the message. Let the transaction go through, stop it, get all the details of who requested the payment and lodge a complaint with your bank. Request a case no/ref no and send all the info to PASA (PAYMENT ASSOCIATION OF SOUTH AFRICA)- (pasa@pasa.org.za). The will investigate and deal with the fraudulent companies. Then based on their findings, you can open a case with SAPS. It seems like a lotof work but we need to deal with these fraudsters taking our hard earned money and making us run around to resolve it.
Just recieved the message with FNB, how do they even get our ID numbers?
Rest assured, FNB employees are in on this. FNB please do a lifestyle audit of your employees if you yourself are not part of the scam.
I have also deceived the message and have been trying to call them since 11h30 but the phone is engaged or just rings with no answer. I'm also an FNB client.
There's actually 2 messages that went out to majority of FNB clients today. The other one goes as follows:
" Your Viva Lifestyle 129.00 debit will bill on 31 Jan...by Direct Comm Ref BD3347972190131..."
Oh it seems like lot of us who are using FNB received this SMS, I wonder how did they get our details.
I got the same SMS too. I bank with fnb and I'm now beginning to think they work together coz just earlier today I contacted fnb for enquiries, then the next thing was receiving this scam SMS. Clearly someone is failing to abide by the bank's confidentiality ethics.
It is fnb people who are stealing our money
I have this same bulls*it sms this morning. I went to check my debit orders under my FNB profile, but it wasn't there.
They will debit tomorrow. I also got the same sms and I remeber I got one on November under Mzansi4more name for R109 called FNB and they made a reverse. I switched accounts thinking they got my account and card details but they got my id number. This is xity
Apparently its not the banks themselves. Its a few rogue employees working at the banks feeding these scammers our details. I do however feel that the banks should do more to control this. It's not fair for the customer to bear the fee for reversing fraudulent debit orders.
I also received this sms this morning, and I also bank with FNB
