Theft of money from my standard bank account
In 2020, May 27th, at about 11:00 an amount of R130 000 was transferred *****ulently from my standard bank account to different companies. One of the companies is Betway which is currently the sponsor of the Premier league in South Africa. I immediately phoned the Prestige banker and asked the lady who was at work to reverse the *****ulent transactions. The lady refused to grant my request, instead she advised to write a letter to standard bank ***** department. I did as she requested.
R30 000 which was paid into one of the companies was brought back into my account.
But the R99 999 that was deposited into a Betway was never returned.
The bank refused to retrieve the money from Betway.
I have not recovered from that loss.
The clients of standard bank must know their money is not save, it can be ****** and the bank will not assist you.
