These people ehn! There must really be discipline at the port! What kind of nonsense is this? Same thing happened to me last year. After paying duty, these guys took 3,000GHC from me, simply because they brought the car from the parking area. Which minister is in charge of port activities???
Oh of course they can. Unfortunately, none of us work for MTN to know the real details when it comes to their security architecture. One thing I can say though is that the regulatory bodies who govern the telcos in the country have sat there and allowed MTN to provide abysmal support to customers in fraud cases, that needs to stop. MTN must also implement MFA instead of OTP for MoMo wallets; OTP is a weak form of authentication.
People trying to find loopholes in Telecel is not something you and I can prove, nor do we have information on what kind of techniques have been used against Telecel to be 100% sure that their security controls are more formidable. The vulnerability you’re describing is very valid; yet we cannot sit here and say that is the main reason why one is more robust than the other. The factors involved are plenty. All I’m saying, is that from the standpoint of an attacker, going after MTN payment rails would prove more beneficial. The attacker is more interested in where there is more money to obtain, and with MTN, the likelihood of getting a bigger payday is higher because there are more people to steal from.
Your user experience is one thing. The architectural design is another. Number of users is also another factor. The robustness of a system does not only rely on your user experience. The reason one produces more fraud incidents than the other can be tied to many things, but the one thing we know for sure, is that MTN owns majority of the user base in Ghana and that’s a fact.
I don’t think broda man understands the license he’s talking about😂. Is he ready to go to school for 4 years to acquire that license before he can sell his cars?
“We cannot go into the medical field to work because we are not medical professionals but why are some Doctors and other professionals importing cars in the country? We have to provide license to our members and anyone who want to import car should acquire that license”
