VERVE CARD PAYMENT CENTRE,
CENTRAL BANK OF NIGERIA (CBN).
TINUBU SQUARE,
LAGOS, NIGERIA.
Our ref: InterSwitch Verve Card-Dec09
Attention: All former ATM Card Holders/Beneficiaries
SUBJECT: INTRODUCING THE NEW VERVE CARD PAYMENT OF YOUR FUNDS.
I am Dr. Mrs. Sarah Alade, the newly appointed Deputy Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria on Economic Policies and I wish to officially inform you that all previous contract/inheritance payment which was initially issued by this office via the previous ATM card payment scheme has been cancelled due to several complains from beneficiaries over non-receiving of their ATM card.
This agency has received the express mandate and instructions of the President, Federal Republic of Nigeria together with the EFCC Nigeria, the Interpol and the FBI to commence the immediate release of your all funds through our new verve card which is a replacement of the former ATM card since this new card has magnetic stripe cards used for funds withdrawal at various Automated Teller Machines (ATMs) with the fraud-proof and reliable verve card.
The new InterSwitch verve card is a secure e-payment card which has a personal Identification number (PIN) and chip which make the use of the card by unauthorized persons impossible thereby providing security in all ATM transactions, please note that that all existing customers both old and new customers would be issued with this new verve card while all old customers are advised to go to return their former ATM with magnetic stripe cards replaced with a chip card.
The benefits of the PIN and chip card over the magnetic stripe card includes maximizing e-payment security through advanced InterSwitch Verve smart cards comes with Chip and Pin instead of the magnetic strip used in previous cards. InterSwitch Verve comes with an in-built microprocessor (chip), offering greater processing and security capability than Magstrip. InterSwitch Verve has a bigger storage making it able to carry more information securely. Verve cards are also more difficult to duplicate and alter than Magstrip cards. InterSwitch Verve uses the MasterCard MChip4 technology.
Higher storage space on InterSwitch Verve means that it can carry more information securely. Personal Information and medical information can be stored in InterSwitch Verve, which means it can double also as an ID card at workplace or for students in school as well as a payment platform for salary.
Multiple Applications can be held on InterSwitch Verve cards. Debit card and Credit card applications as well as loyalty applications can be held on a single Verve card. Because InterSwitch Verve is chip based, applications can be programmed into it making it easier to upgrade. It can also be possible for service providers to buy storage space on the InterSwitch Verve allowing all sorts of possibilities. For example, with a chip-based card like InterSwitch Verve it is possible for PHCN to buy space on Verve. Such a scheme will allow PHCN customers to buy and load energy with Verve card saving us from multiplicity of smart cards.
InterSwitch Verve can be used on mobile, ATM, POS, and internet based transactions. Verve Cardholders can use over 7,300 ATM machines. InterSwitch Verve can also be used to shop at over 11,000 POS terminals at their merchant locations. Over 200 online merchants now support transactions with InterSwitch Verve allowing cardholders to shop on the worldwide web.
InterSwitch Verve offers SMS transaction alerts, notifying you of your card transactions, you can also block your card easily from anywhere at anytime. InterSwitch provides a one time PIN for internet and mobile transactions, preventing your PIN from being re-used by unauthorized persons. InterSwitch Verve supports Fraud Insure a card insurance service which is aimed at reducing the burden of fraud when it happens.
You can also pay your bills with InterSwitch Verve at ATMs, POS terminals, Kiosks, online or using mobile devices, I will need you to re-confirm the following details to the head of verve card department for further information with the following contact details:
