The Police have recovered
23 ATM cards from a middle-aged woman suspected to have stolen them from
clients in Tanzania.
ZimEye reports that Halima
Juma was arrested at CRDB bank ATM in Mbagala after a teller at the financial
institution suspected she was up to something fishy.
The suspect was arrested in
possession of 23 stolen ATM cards. The teller claimed he grew suspicious when
Halima used different cards of the same bank to withdraw money from one ATM
machine.
After being busted, the
suspect tried to escape, but was cornered by the bank’s security guards, who
handed her over to police. Upon search at the police station, ATM cards
belonging to nine different backs were retrieved from her private parts.
The police disclosed that
there were several cases she had been reported to have gone into ATM rooms
pretending to help the elderly to withdraw their money from the machines.
Instead of helping them to
withdraw money, Halima is said to have been exchanging the cards and handing
over clients a different one that they cannot use.
