Hacker steals GTBank websites, intercepts customers data in a large scale phishing attack

  • Nigerian financial institution, Guaranty Trust Bank (GTBank), experienced a hacking incident on Wednesday evening, causing the website to be rendered inaccessible to customers.
    • As of 10:30 pm on Wednesday, multiple attempts to access the website were unsuccessful due to the link being unavailable.
    • Cybersecurity experts suggest that the bank’s login credentials may have been compromised, rather than the domain itself being stolen for resale, despite the recently renewed domain name.

    On Wednesday evening, the official website of Guaranty Trust Bank (GTBank), a prominent Nigerian financial institution, was compromised in a hacking incident, resulting in its inaccessibility to customers.

    As of 10:30 p.m. on Wednesday, error messages were encountered during numerous attempts to access the website ((link unavailable)).

    Cybersecurity experts suggest that the bank’s login credentials may have been compromised, rather than the domain itself being seized for resale, despite the fact that the domain name had been recently renewed for a five-year period, as reported by Daily Trust.

    GTBank had not yet released an official statement regarding the incident at the time of this report. The outage prompted customers to communicate their frustrations and concerns on social media.

    In other news, Famous fashion designer Veekee James creates buzz as she takes her husband to the barber and gives clear directions to the barber.

    It’s well-known that Veekee James openly shows her love for her husband, Femi, on social media.

    Even with criticism from online users, she keeps sharing her affection for him.

    In a recent video on her Instagram, she was seen telling the barber exactly how to cut her husband’s hair.

    She closely managed the haircut, which led to various reactions from her followers.

    The video was captioned: “POV: You prayed for a wife and got a perfectionist and a troublemaker. Please o is it a crime to be his favorite problem? 🤷🏼‍♀️Brothers can y’all relate? 😂🤣”
