DJ Terence Molefi has warned people about scammers after his bank account was drained over the weekend.
The House DJ shared with TshisaLive that he started receiving notifications on his cellphone that money was being withdrawn from his account after returning from a gig over the weekend.
Whilst on his flight, DJ Terence received a number of bank notifications alerting him that there were transactions being made on his account.
When he landed at OR Tambo International Airport, the DJ managed to stop his card and block his account but said he needed to contact his bank again to find out what happened.
An undisclosed amount of money was withdrawn from DJ Terence’s account, which according to the publication is R6 000.
A WARNING to anyone that banks with Standard bank. Check your accounts. There’s a massive security breach with that bank & they are going about their day as if NOTHING happened. Several fraudulent transactions were attempted on my account last night. 3k gone with no explanation💔

I’m out 28 000 and Standard Bank recons there’s no breach. Spent 4 hours on the phone in the bank because the bank must phone the bank to report fraud. Now I am the 3rd police station for assistance with a affidavit. So annoyed with Std Bank. Sies! #standardbank @StandardBankZA

Over the weekend frustrated Standard Bank customers took to social media to voice their concerns after they noticed large amounts of money disappearing from their accounts.
Standard Bank denied there was a systems breach but apologized to customers for delays with the call centre fielding calls over possible fraud.
Customers were also complaining that the Standard Bank mobile banking app was offline, however the bank said all systems were fully operational.
Hi Sanele, please confirm if you managed to log a fraud case with our fraud team?
