I got a call from Bank of America that someone was using my account and that they tried to send a Zelle for $1400. Then she transferred me to Zelle fraud departmen (877-369-7806) ext 202 with Joe Gonzalez. They ask me to log in and gave me an email with my name, and last name @myself.com and ask me to put in a code so they could cancel the transaction. Turn out to be that the code was the amount of money they wanted to transfer. I called the bank and they told me it was a scam so we stop the transaction.

The number called 3 times so I picked up the third time. The person talked really fast and mumbled. She told me that she was us bank calling about my card being declined. Asked me if I had spent a thousand something dollars at Disney corporation I said no, asked me if I spent a thousand something dollars at Walmart I said no. Asked me if I had told the bank I would be traveling to Florida, I said no. Asked me I was in Florida traveling, said no. She assured me they would send a new card to me to “the address on file” never told me that address. I thought to ask but by then I was looking at my bank and none of those transactions had happened and that statement was enough to prove this was a scam, never told me the address or ask me to confirm it? And then asked me if I preferred fedex or ups? I said I didn’t care. She never told me which she chose, just that my new card would be to me in 5-7 business days. I said ok, she asked me to confirm the last 4 digits of my phone number and then tried to send me a text with information in it. I didn’t hear what info that was. Never got a text. She tried 6 times to send the text, “rebooted her system” and then told me to retry mine every time. At this point I hung up and never received another phone call or text. Not sure what other information she would have asked for but she didn’t seem to know anything but my phone number that she called me on and my name which would be easy to look up in public systems. Everything was too vague, she was rude if I misheard her. Never said the money I “lost” would be reimbursed or what address she “had on file” didn’t tell me it was us bank until after she asked to confirm my name and asked how I was doing.

Trying to get my $150 back that I spent on some products for a buddy. Said buddy had some lady send me $150. The email from “ zelle” said that she had to send me an additional $350 because my account “was not a business account and has a limit” so I believe she sent a 2nd set of $350. ( I have emails .) The Zelle “team” emailed me back saying, I have to send 2 payments of $350 ( worth $700 ) and we would get credited immediately ( we would both get our money back ) I sent first $350 then they said I would get credited $900 after I sent the second set of $350 (the 2 sets of $350 plus the $150, then a $50 from management for taking so long. ) Then I get emails from “the FBI” With an email address from Zelle Pay, and a “Thanks from Zelle team” at the bottom as the closing.

[email protected] that is said email I sent the first $350 to.

They say I have to send $700 to get $900 back.

I posted a lawnmower for sale on Facebook marketplace and the scammer contacted me to purchase it and pay it with Zell. She then sent me a letter from Hazel stating she had to add another $250 because it was above her allowed amount and once, she sent proof that she sent the additional money. She was to send that information to me and have me refund her the money back through Zell. I tried numerous addresses to return the money to her and it wouldn’t work so she gave me her husband’s Venmo account, and I sent it to a Michael McVay . This gentleman did not follow through so the money is still at Venmo and they will not return it to me. I found a number for Zell fraud and I called it but apparently it was a scam number and they got me to transfer money to crypto.com stating that my Bank accounts had people trying to hack into them and I had to protect them so they had me do two transfers, one for $1000 and the second one for $999. Then they had me go to Walmart and get to Apple $500 gift cards and to target stores and got three target gift cards that amounted to $1995 And had me scratch the numbers and send them pictures so that they could catch the hackers as they try to retrieve them. I was stupid. They had me in such a frenzy, and when I questioned what they were doing, they just kept saying, ma’am, you contacted us for help and that’s what we’re trying to do . They also had me wire $4500 from another bank account but luckily I was able to contact the bank and they were able to retrieve that back.

The scammers started with phone calls. Today my family member received a letter with Bank of America header saying a card for a small business had fraudulent usage. He has no such business or card. They are wanting a copy of photo ID and all info personal and business. Plus sent forms to fill out. My family member is smart enough to know this is a scam and he just wanted to inform you about it.

A textmessage pretending to be a bank, warning of suspicious transactions. They'll then likely tell you they have the means of correcting this breach. A link may be provided within the message.

A male (no name given) called my mother saying he was from Regions Bank and that her account had been compromised and she needed to pay $500. He asked for her social security number which she gave the full number and he asked for her email which she gave. He then asked for her bank account number but thankfully she did not give it to him and when questioned why he needed that..phone call ended. She has since contacted her Regions bank and had debit and credit cards to be issued with new numbers.

Hi i have 2 different incidents that happened within a couple of days from each other the first one happened when we went on a small trip me and my husband I was scammed $300 on Saturday, February 18 through Facebook. A lady had advertised that she had some Yorky puppies for sale she at that moment tell me that if I sent $200, she would hold a puppy for me and then I could pay the other hundred when I picked her up when i got home from my trip then I got another message a few minutes later stating that she needed the other hundred because she needed to get the paperwork and the puppies shots before I came and got her. I had her address and everything come to find out , someone hacked that lady’s information on Facebook and so I had sent whoever $300…. I was talking to my children and told them what happened they told me I should call Zelle and report it that I was scammed and so I called Zelle and this phone number that I found online who i thought was Zelle was 1-888-823-1181. Come to find out I was being scammed again because that number is not the real phone number , I then spoke to a guy on there name Ryan, and which he had me download an app called AnyDeskRemote…. so I download the app and he told me to give him the access code from that so I did, and after that they had access to my bank account and everything else well, they kept sending me all these different codes supposedly from Zelle, which I caught on afterwards after they were taking all my money that they weren’t actually codes it was actually amounts of money they were taking taking from my savings and checking account, and it was through Zelle and PayPal that they had access to also they took what they wanted. They said that these codes were given to me so they could verify who I was and they were going to try to refund me the 300 that I lost on Saturday but that’s not what they were doing they were taking out money from my checking account and my savings account, at that time they said after they took what they wanted at that time they said that they would call me back the next day at 9:30am and the phone number he gave me was 669-777-9292 and he said his name was Brian and it looked like they kept telling me to hold on that they were going to give the manager a look at this to see if they could give me the $300 back that I lost from Saturday which didn’t make sense to me at that time and today which is February 21 they’ve been calling me on a different number and that number is 669-289-7499 and they plan on calling me back later this evening at 5 PM Arizona time and I think they’re just trying to get what they couldn’t get yesterday because my bank only allowed so much money to be taken from which I believe was 2000 and then the other amount was 449 from PayPal and then I lost the 300 on Saturday. I hope they get caught because I wouldn’t want this to happen to anyone else. This is just very devastating me and my husband we both work really hard for our money. I only work part time I’m a grandmother and I’m so devastated by this .

Robocall from 888-274-2957 impersonated Venmo, announcing attempt to change password on my account, asking whether it was I who made the attempt. Called repeatedly, left no message when I didn’t answer. This is a scam as the correct number for Venmo is 855-812-4430. Thanks in advance for looking into this!
