So how did they withdraw money they did not have in the account via mpesa.
They are part of the game.Pretend you dont know how to use a smart phone nyef nyef nyef
Ofcouse the hacking was done by the experts but withdrawal of the loot was done by them.
As an ex banker I an tell you the most serious frauds were committed by women who you would never suspect.Even stealing within the banking hall so done by hopeless looking women Sometime back I lent someone some money. The guy works with a quasi-government body. A month later, I receive an amount on my MPESA from a strange number with a strange female name. Then the borrower calls. It's him. He refunded the soft loan through that lady's number. I ask why he has to use some funny number. He opens up & tells me there's a lot of kando kando cash & since staff accounts are likely to be scrutinized, he uses that strange line for 'biashara'. Hii Kenya yetu...  Hehe  Tuko wengi.
I also do this. KEBS, KPA, KRA, NSSF, Immigration or where? Be specific. Moving on.... You can't move on with our taxes sir who says it's your taxes? it's biashara money! All Mushrooms are edible! Some Mushroom are only edible ONCE!

Bankers seem to be the biggest thieves we have around. The Barclays ATM heist was most likely carried out by an insider or a person coordinating with an insider. the star wrote:The three ATMs were hacked and emptied of cash on Saturday night. The Star on Wednesday reported that the tech-savvy youths used a method known as ATM jackpotting to drain millions out of the machines. "There are only two emotions in the market, hope & fear.

During yesterday JKL, Oigara and Collymore said that the biggest setback is employees stealing from the companies, hey were in unison that every month they hav sacked between 3-5 people and wheels of justice are too slow to prosecute Life is an endless adventure

Barclays Kenya has always been under ABSA. Barclays UK just let go of ABSA nothing big. Quote: Additionally, they chose to strike just after two of the ATMs had been reloaded with cash.
This has heightened suspicion that someone on the inside must have tipped them off. On-site ATMs, which are located at banking halls, are loaded directly by the bank.
However, off-site ATMs like the ones that were robbed are loaded by the security company contracted to guard them.
The security company monitors the cash level inside the machine on a daily basis and then requests for money or technical assistance from the bank whenever required.
In case an off-site ATM needs to be reloaded, all the security company does is to make a requisition and then go pick the money.
Like a day before the ATM at Mutindwa was robbed, G4S personnel had just loaded it with Sh7 million. Out of this, Sh6.2 million was discovered missing 24 hours later. Interesting that firms still trust G4S with their money after the heists that they previously had on money on transit. "There are only two emotions in the market, hope & fear.

Surely, if a cleaner is able to steal that kind of money from a bank then the problem is the bank.
BBI will solve it :)
