Pretending to be a payday loan provider. They go so far as to ask for your online banking login. After they log into your account they stop answering phone calls and hours later send a fake letter stating you were declined. There is no information where the reporting agency should be located. They now have my full account numbers and routing number for 2 checking accounts and my debit card.

I was contacted in Facebook Marketplace by Alex Root. He said he was interested in an item. He asked for my phone number (which I unfortunately gave) and then asked if he could send a verification code. I told him no and claimed I didn't use my actual phone number. He was trying to do one of those scams... not sure how much damage he can do with my phone number. His current picture on Facebook is a man and woman. The man is on the left in a tie and the have shingles of a house in the background.

I received the below email from [email protected] to my yahoo email address yesterday 11/28/22. I never signed up for this site and yesterday I received another email from them claiming I had a "bonus match." Today, 11/29/22, I received 3 more emails, one with my picture and a guy's picture claiming we could be a match. I've never heard of this site let alone set up an account. I am very worried that what appears to be bots and scammers have some of my personal information and at least one photo of me. This is impersonation, and I've read several other complaints about this site being a scam. Please see the email below for the first email I received from edate.com:

The scammer found my personal information online. I’m not aware how they got my information except that I am a victim in recent T-****** data breach. This criminal made a fake Arizona ID of me and made unauthorized withdrawal of $7000 from my bank accounts.

One to two weeks later, this criminal again used the fake ID ported out my cell phone number from my current carrier to a carrier associated with T-******. I don’t know what potential damage this may cause to my life

Representative approached my son to get an appointment with my husband and I. We spoke in person where this individual showed up with his supposed manager. Said there is incentives if we agreed to install solar panels and roof replacement and insulation where going to be included as a gift for purchase of solar panels. Made an application of supposed soft credit. Emailed me the contract but I did not sign im afraid they can invent a fake email and sign the contract for me. If someone can contact me I’ll highly appreciate it. I believe they’re just taking advantage of low income neighborhoods with a scam.

I was texted by "Bank of America" about a fraudulent use of my debit card, asking if I authorized a purchase in Sarasota Florida at a Home Depot in the amount of $2000. I replied "NO" to the text. I then received a text stating that B of A was attempting to call me. I received a call from the main Bank of America phone number from an associate who called herself "Amy". I know this was the main B of A phone number as I have this number stored in my phone. I made the mistake of giving this person my SS number. After that call, which lasted 52 minutes, "Amy" told me that my card was cancelled and that I would be receiving a call every day for the next 3 days while I wait for my new card to arrive in the mail. I then received an email from B of A asking me how my call with "Angel" went and would I fill out a brief survey. Here's where it gets weird: All of my calls with B of A since this incident the associate I speak with can see that I spoke with "Angel" on Oct 3, however I never spoke with "Angel". Also, the new card was mailed to an address in Florida! No one at B of A can tell me how or why it was sent to that erroneous address! Is this an internal scam at B of A? Who knows? No one at B of A can answer my questions with any clarity, nor transfer me to someone who can! They are totally failing at this. Meanwhile, I have frozen my credit at all three credit reporting agencies, but I have no idea what is going on. Was my identity stolen? Should I be concerned that now my SS number is out there somewhere? Bank of America has been completely useless in this matter, and it would appear that they have an internal scammer in their system and refuse to talk to me about it.
