I looked up Etsy customer service in Google Chrome. Dailed this number showing (718) 855-7955) a man answering said Etsy customer support. I told him I had set up an account with them to sell awhile back but had not completed my payment method and that I had some questions with cash app not wanting to connect with them. He said I probably had a setting on it blocking limitation and said he could help but first I would need to download this app Anydesk Remote Desktop. I did. And then he said before we proceed he would need to verify that it was me to contact that person for verification and ask who I might had sent money to from my cash app account. And said my daughter ******* and gave him her number. Someone called her and she verified I was her mom and then talked her into downloading the Anydesk Remote Desktop. She did. Now am still on the phone with my guy and he told me to cash app ******* this amount of four thousand and some odd amount. And I said I don't have that kind of money. And he said that's okay. We are just determining my limitations. I said okay. Then we did another four thousand and some odd amount and I did. He said see your money is still in your bank account. He asked me to key in my debit card and I did. To go to savings account I did but told him I had not used my savings in cash app then to add Kelly Russell as a favorite. I did to see if I could send money I did and it failed. That is when I add some questions about it all. He convinced me that all was okay. And to go to my bank account to see it was all still there. It was. But now I'm assuming he already knew what I had in my bank accounts and told me to transfer 870 into my saving. So I did and no w my bank statement and the cash app transfer is showing that I paid myself $870.00. And my Bitcoin is showing that I cashed out on $870.00. And cash app is not wanting to reimburse me or my Bank because they say I need to get it back from cash app.

Received email stating that money would be deducted from my account automatically tomorrow. Used contact number and spoke to someone with a foreign accent who said that my auto renewal was due. I do not use this service at all. I explained I wished to speak to the individual on the email a "Lynette Griffith" to get the information from her concerning the bill but was told that "he was customer service and I could not speak to her". I told him I was not interested in the service and he asked me to get in front of my computer to take care of it. I did not give him any information and refused his request. He told me if I did not do it that tomorrow the $600 dollars would be withdrawn from my account. I asked to be removed from their calling and email lists in the future.

caller called my work phone and didn't ask for anyone, but started a spill about he was notifying me that I was getting an increase in social security benefits. In order to receive those benefits.... I hung up as soon as I realized it was a scam.

Took control of my computer screen. Said that my computer had been hacked and someone was gathering my personal information. They listed a phone number to call immediately calling themselves Windows Support 833-784-3518. They wanted me to use a 3rd party app on my cell phone to take pictures of the message that was on my computer screen. Then they started asking questions about my banking information.

Caller said that someone had attempted to charge a $1500 apple product to my Amazon account. I checked my Amazon account and my bank account while on the phone with this person and there were no such transactions so I knew it had to be a scam. There was a lot of noise in the background while we were talking. He said he was going to try and deny the transaction. He put me on hold and then came back and said he was unsuccessful, so he was going to transfer me to some governmental agency. I can't remember the name he put out there. I told him to give me the number of the agency, and I would call them myself. He said no, he had to transfer me. I demanded that he give me the number and I would call them because I didn't think it was a legitimate call. He hung up.

He started scamming my mother before Christmas. She has given him at least 600 and he keeps asking for more. She believes she is talking to Alan Jackson. He found her on a Facebook fan club page. He tells her he’s getting a divorce so his money is all frozen. His management team robbed him, his credit is frozen. He can get her backstage passes and a tshirt for a concert in Green Bay. The concert never happened and when she asks him where her tshirt is it’s always an excuse. He tells her he’s sending her some money but wants her to put another 500 on this business PayPal account to open it (because her husband is watching her expenses) then he can put some money in it for her. When she says she will get in trouble for sending it he calls her darling and practically begs for her to send it and he’ll talk to her husband about it and take care of her when she gets a divorce…that was very recent). He knows she’s an invalid and says he can hire someone to take care of her. We’ve tried to tell her the real Alan Jackson is rich and wouldn’t be asking her for money. He even got her to ask her best friend to buy tickets to a concert that was never scheduled but her friend tried to tell her she was being scammed.

The following are the email addresses I know about but there was about 4 months of conversation we don’t know about.

Shayfitz10@gmail (Shannon Fitzgerald)

alanjacksonsweetlovers@gmail

jasonmcalister1999@gmail

Nicole.oswalt1999@gmail

And something he called a PayPal tag of @nicoleoswalt67

My mother lives in DePere, WI and she started chatting with whom she thought, and still thinks, is the real Alan Jackson. I have a zip file she accidentally sent me but then told me I could read that has all this information I put on here. The following words were brought up numerous times:

Gift card 31x, Razor Gold 28x, Routing# 19x, PayPal 35x and the word bank 35x. Anyway, this guy probably isn’t even in America, but I’m sure he probably is doing the same, and destroying families, with others. He knows she’s an invalid on social security too. He’s trying to talk her into getting a separate account so her husband can’t control her money. We’re considering having her declared incompetent. He is destroying our family.

i got a sunbit credit and called 855 679 9921 in error to activate. I should have called 855 678 9921. I was off by one number. They took the credit number and the security code which i thought was odd. I then tried to use the card and it wasnt activated. I then got a text msg saying fraud activity detected and to call an 800. I checked my subit account online and saw there wasnt any charges so i became suspicious and called sunbit. And thats when i realized i called the wrong number

I received a text message to my phone saying that my cash app number was attempting to be changed and that someone was trying to get into my cash app and to call 1 (888) 232-2699 for security. I called the number and the person said they were a cash app customer service rep and that someone had tried to hack my account to take $462. They tricked me into downloading AnyDesk app in order to view my home phone screen and ask for additional banking info that I didn’t give them. My phone started freezing up and they asked me to give them my card number so that they could send the $462 back to me, I hung up.

Someone called wanting personal information about one of our doctors. They were claiming to be the DEA and said they had some misleading information about his number. This person could not give me a website and only offered me a "badge Id" to make me feel better about giving them the information. After my numerous attempts to find out what they wanted or why they had not reached out by mail, I told them this was a scam.

The initial person read a disclaimer you had to answer yes to. Said the line was recorded. Proceeded to be transferred to the account manager who said I had an outstanding balance. I had just called a week before and my balance was zero. Told them to send a bill if I owed anything. Called the number back and it answered Discover. Called the real Discover and talked to a.real person that confirmed a zero balance.

Called stating they were our local utility company and they were about to shut off our power, asked for a new payment source and sent me to their financial dept to give them this info which I did not. I called my local utility company to see if this was real and it is not. I called the company and told them that they were a scam and that I was reporting them and they hung up on me.

The email offered Rachel Ray cookware for free and all that was required was a shipping fee of $8.95. I did pay it using my CashApp account and did not receive anything. This offer came under Kohl’s name that I won said cookware. Unfortunately I don’t have anything else on these thieves because the email got deleted. This is an imposter of Kohl's scam.

They sent me a text message saying if I’m interested in a job for 27$ an hour and that the interview would be on the signal text app. I messages them they gave me a code to give them so they would interview me. They asked questions in parts and I had ten minuets to answer just like another description about this job they did the same exact to him. They sent me a check for equipment I would be using to pay somebody else to send it to me with their money and they said 200$ sigh on bonus but my bank got locked and I called them explained what was happening and they told me it’s most likely a scam. Sad because I needed a job from home.

I was called on my cell phone from 601-9388657 which said Meridian, MS. I answered the call and a lady named Debra answered and said she was from the Department of Mississippi Revenue and I owed money from I think she said April 2022 to March 2023 maybe back taxes. I immediately hung up. Shortly after I received a call from another number from the same agency. I didn’t answer but received a voicemail from the second number. I called the Department of Mississippi Revenue the same day and I had to give them my social security number which I did not feel comfortable doing and they said I didn’t owe anything and that this was a scam ant to report it to this organization.

The scammers use influencer Nick *****a to sell a program that promises to create a ecommerce store for you on Walmart. All emails, portals and websites have been taken down, and they closed their bank accounts. It's been over 1 year, they delivered nothing and are not reachable. I hired an attorney to send a demand letter to the addresses form the contract, no response. They are still actively recruiting new victims at https://www.the-******** and email me [email protected]******* saying that they can remedy what AA messed up, but of course they want more money. They are currently being sued by other victims, I did not have the funds to continue to pursue. Thank you

I was approached with a job offer supposedly from a company named Currus Biologics Limited. This is a real company from Melbourne, Australia, but the scammer claimed the company had plans to create branches in Salt Lake City, Utah, Florida, and other states here in the US. The scammer going by the name Sharell Moore claimed that she was an HR Officer for the company working from Moab, Utah. She was offering a work-from-home data entry part-time position, with a pay of $30.75 per hour. She conducted most of our contact and an interview through messaging on Skype, and she seemed very legitimate and professional. Things just didn't seem right and when I confronted her on whether she could provide proof of her employment at Currus Biologics Limited, she stopped all contact. The scammer did get my signed signature, as she requested I sign a document to officially accept the position, then scan and email the document back to her. She didn't request any bank information, but I believe she was going to within the next week to supposedly get the information for direct deposit. The scammer also claimed that there were several office equipment items required for the position, but that the company would mail a check to cover the costs using FedEx. I have attempted to message Currus Biologics Limited to see if they could confirm whether or not the job offer was legitimate, but they have not answered back yet. I also have screenshots of all contact and messages between me and the scammer, so if that is needed I would be happy to supply them.
