Have you ever wondered why your huge data finishes in days, despite using the quantum of data you subscribed for? This is why:
My Fellow Nigerians, please dial 12700# to see people sharing your data and use 12702*the number sharing your data#, to disable them from sharing your data. It will shock you to know those sharing your data without your consent; some of them are very close to you. This is actually data theft, which is a cybercrime, according to the Cyber Crime (Prohibition), 2015, a Federal Law.
To avoid your data being shared, put a password on your phone and do not remove your password for anybody, no matter how close the person is to you. Also, do not leave your phone unattended to, with anybody, no matter how close. Tell them it is private.
Be also very careful, for them not to use your phone to generate a One Time Password (OTP), to transfer money from your account to their accounts and delete the alert. The same can be done with a USSD or even your Bank App. When you suspect your money has gone down without you making any transaction, kindly check your statement of account. They cannot delete that.
Also, use *#61# to check if your number is being tapped and use ##002# to disable your phone being tapped by security agents or your loved ones. Use _560_0# to get your BVN, save your BVN on your email, and not your phone. Let your email have a password.
Do not leave the last six digits of your ATM on your phone, because if your phone gets missing, they can set up your bank app with it and take all your money. Be very careful. People closer to you are those who have access to your phone. Have a policy, “I do not give my phone to anybody.” It could even save you from unnecessary police troubles. That is an article for another day.
This article is inspired by true-life experiences. I owe this information to society.

And now we take into account we’ve got the writer to be grateful to because of that.

Many thanks for all!
