You hit the nail on the head. Most good accounts have relationship Managers. I doubt they would just sit there and watch a fat account being decimated. Regards On Mon, 30 May 2022, 5:05 pm Alex Watila via KICTANet, < kictanet@lists.kictanet.or.ke> wrote:
Good afternoon,
The Kenya Bankers Association and the Telcos are conveniently avoiding the evidence that most of these frauds involve insiders
Without dealing with the insider threats in the banks and telcos the frauds will continue
At the moment they have just identified the sim swap vulnerabilities (actually some of the international banks have made 2FA mandatory and are using Authentication apps that are not based on your sim)

Dear Listers,
These cases are emerging at an alarming rate. Indeed, the Kenya Bankers Association says consumer education will play a central role in addressing emerging security challenges. The association cites cases of phishing emails, and malware attacks, to have scaled up in tandem with the enhanced uptake of internet and mobile transaction platforms.
“A study paper on human-centered cybersecurity: Kenyan Fintech sector,” prepared by KICTANet, in collaboration with Trust4Cyber Flagship Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH, says emerging threats in Kenya are organized crime, exporting cybercriminals to the East African region. https://bit.ly/3vBc5SA
