NIN and PIN scam: Don't share your details to unlock your NIN
If someone asks for your NIN and PIN, claiming they need them to unlock your blocked NIN, do not share them. This is a common scam used to obtain your personal information and potentially gain unauthorized access to services linked to your identity, including financial services. Always use official government channels if you need help with your NIN, and never share your PIN or other confidential information with anyone. Stay alert and help protect others by sharing this warning.

There was a loophole scammers used to obtaining a NIN just from a stolen SIM card in case it was a removable SIM from a stolen phone. They use that NIN and other information to cash out any amount from your mobile wallet (like M-Pesa, Mixx by Yas & Airtel Money). Not sure if they've fixed that yet.
