- Los Angeles, CA, USA • Apr 10, 2025

I received a call yesterday, April 9 at from someone by the name of DAVID MALONE representing Fraud Department ext 1003. He told me that they have detected a breach in my bank and financial accounts, 1 for $900 and one for $5000, going to "Samantha Harry" in Ohio. He asked me if I knew this person, I said no. He said I will help you block and remove these transactions and help you catch these perpetrators. That's where the dark manipulation started. The way he spoke of the situation filled me with fear and anxiety. He sounded very proffesional and was very well spoken, spoke English really well , unlike the common Indian sounding scammer. He mentioned he also spoke Spanish. He told me that he would help me cancel these transactions that were atttemting to go through. He told me that I had to go to my Zelle Banking app and I had to input these "cancel codes" . But first he gave a "case number". He said write this down, JPM for JP Morgan and Chase to make it sound legit. He gave me a made up number "JPM896374. That case number is to keep track of me and other victims I'm assuming.

In order for me to access Zelle I have to hit the "Send Money with Zelle" on my Capital One banking app. That was a red flag for me but I felt anxious and scared so I just did it. He never mentioned anything about sending money, he simply said input these cancel codes over to the "Manager overlooking the situation by the name of BEVERLY ANTOINE, phone number (571)394-1461. I had to input the codes over the "amount" field. David Malone said that Beverly was currently busy and we needed to send the cancellation codes to a different manager by the name of NAIKA CHEVALIER, phone number (463) 294-8772. Again, he never said I was sending money just that I was going to input the cancellation codes over the "amount". He tried to trick me into sending $249,650. I wrote out the cancel codes C0049800 and C00199850. Then he said delete the first letter and just leave 199850 and 49800. Leaving just the numbers, it was no "cancel code" I was sending money to a scammer. I don't have that kind of money in my account so the money would not go through. But again, I was filled with fear and anxiety, I wanted to solve it and I couldn't think for myself. In this section we had many errors all because the scammer forgot where exactly I was supposed to put the period. When it didnt send, and I noticed their were many multiple errors being done, that's when I started feeling even more uneasy and distrustful but I kept going. It's as if I was in a trance. The first payment of $498.00 was sent to NAIKA CHEVALIER, and a second one for $126.00. He instructed me to go back to the home screen and refresh my app. He asked me if it said pending or delivered and was very pushy about it.

He asked me how much I had in my checking account and in order to further protect my money he suggested we move it to my savings account. From my savings account I was not able to send money so he asked me to move it back to my checking account. The money would not send to NAIKA CHEVALIER so, the scammer asked me to go to my contacts and add her manually to my contacts. I sent the money over thinking I was "protecting my money". He said I was going to be reimbursed tomorrow. Once the status said "Delivered" he put me on hold for 45 minutes until I finally realized I was being taken a fool of I called Official Zelle and they told me that that number that called me is NOT from Zelle, (800) 456-7195 that it is a fake scam number. That is the number to "David Malone", described by one of his goons as an expert helper of many ,many years that works 24 hours a day helpin people just like me. I would say he's definetly an American, he was very fluent. I have to agree that this man, "David Malone" is an expert and manipulator. Sounds like he has years in proffesionally scamming people. Lalone even joked about it, and said how this had happened to me he doesn't know, that it's usually the older people that fall for this, but little did I know that he was the scammer.

He is revered by his goons. After I found out I got scammed, about an hour later I got a phone call from KEVIN PEREZ, I could tell English was not his first language he had an accent and sounded of Latino origin. He was not as word savvy and knowledgeable, and you could tell his scamming experience wasn't as good. If it was him that called initially he wouldn't have been able to get me. It occurred to me to record the conversation. So I was able to record the conversation which lasted 18 minutes.

Later that night, I was able to talk to Capital One Credit Card Services but I felt so distrustful, a representative that spoke to me was upset and yelled at me because I was having trouble understanding im. I was sure I called Capital One but he asked for my account number, my social security number, name and then my address. I did not give him my address as I felt very distrustful, and I hung up on him, I wish I could report him. So I made sure I used the app to make sure I was calling the actual Capital One Customer Service. He told me it was the credit department and assured me that my account and credit cards were secure, even though suddenly I couldn't access my banking account and my biometric fingerprint had been changed. I was able to regain control of my Capital One account. I have yet to contact Capital One regarding my checking account and my debit card if it has been compromised. It appears my cards are unusable at the moment. I'm making this report and then I am going to file a report with the LAPD.

This is organized crime. They know what they are doing but they rely on "David Malone" as he is the one that is really word savvy. I hope this helps catch these thieves and it helps someone avoid this type of scam. I hope DAVID MALONE and his GOONS get put in jail and that they pay for their crimes against the innocent.

In my conversation with KEVIN PEREZ, I knew he was a scammer now ,and tried to get some information from him. When I asked him where is Mr Malone located, he got very uncomfortable and told me that he'd rather have mr Malone reach out to me tomorrow. I told him but I need help now following his game, and I told him I will call him back, surely I am not. My intention is report this same message to the Police and other service that can help me catch these scammers.

I just realized I hav been getting called from this scam group mutiple times the last few weeks, since THURSDAY MARCH 6, a month ago. So they have been trying to get me since then. Usually I do not answer these strange numbers but this time I did and I fell for it. Please help. Thank you.
