- Levittown, NY, USA • Sep 17, 2026

I received a call from a man who said he worked for Wells Fargo Zelle department with fraud. Said they were two transactions from my Chase account to Wells Fargo in the past two days from a “Jessica Martinez” he said he could cancel them and sent me to Zelle’s fraud department. I have fake cancellation numbers and everything. The man at Cell fake fraud department asked me to give him numbers from a text message that was sent to my phone and I refused and told him that I would call Zelle and handle it on my own and he started getting upset and telling me to google the number and telling me they’re not gonna be responsible for these issues and transactions. I ended up being hung up all after I told him I just wanted to verify, and so I called Zelle myself, and they said that it was definitely fraud.

* attached picture is the information I was given regarding the cancellation and the people I was speaking with*

- Greensboro, NC, USA

I don’t even have a Wells Fargo account.

Look legit Wells Fargo email confirming I had sent $249 via Zelle to Adam (5454) on 23 July. I don’t know an Adam.

I do use Zelle but confirmations are on Wells Fargo website

By the way, I don’t know how to upload a file.

- Saint Paul, MN, USA

Letter read Final Notice which raised suspicion because I was unaware of a home warranty.

Termination date mere days away

Bogus barcode

No website or email address

Poorly printed as though from a dying home printer

- Rochester, NY, USA

very shifty way they write their letter trying to fool people that it's from Wells Fargo and as if thier is a dire need to contact them, and also they do not include an address of their company...they are trying to trick people rather than be honest about their product and service (for example, why no address for proper identification?).

- Wichita, KS, USA

The Scammers tried to get credit using my full name, date of birth, and mailing address. When contacted by me they declined to identify themselves or present Company IDENTIFICATION.

+1

The key there is the email address. The mailing address and phone number are legitimate. The phone number is related to one key card account applications. I just verified the number by calling my local branch and being transferred a lot. I received a snail mail letter with that number. i called because it was my address but someone else's name. They had been associated with my address over 37 years ago. Got nervous when I provided info for a fraud report (last 4 of ss) So verified by calling a known number.

- Colorado Springs, CO, USA

This man stated calling from wells Fargo in New Jersey, asking my name and indicated someone was trying to get a credit card under my name

- Winston Salem, NC, USA

Recibí una llamada de alguien pretendiendo ser de Wells Fargo que un dia antes me habían abierto una cuenta de cheques y que me habían hecho una transacción de 1,000 dólares a una persona llamada Maria Lopez. Yo les pregunte como habian abierto una cuenta si yo no había ido al banco, o ellos no tenian mis datos. Ellos dijeron que si yo no había abierto una cuenta ellos me podían ayudar a cancelar aesa la transferencia y ellos mismos me daban los números como codigos, pero eran las cantidades que ellos estaban enviando o q yo les estaba enviando a traves de Zelle. •••translation••• I received a call from someone pretending to be from Wells Fargo who told me that I opened a checking account one day before the call and that a transaction was processed for $1,000 to someone by the name María López. I asked them how they had opened an account if I had not gone to the bank, or if they did not have my information. They said that if I had not opened an account, they could help me cancel the transfer and they told me what to do step by step and they gave me numbers as codes to void that transaction, but those were not codes, it was the amounts that they were sending from my Wells Fargo account to a Zelle transfer to someone else.

- Stony Point, NC, USA

The Michael said he was from Wells Fargo bznk and someone was trying to transfer $44000 from us by using the Zelle app the bank has. Michael was wanting us to open up the banking app. We told him we dont have a banking app and we have never used it or the Zele app. Michael wanting us to download the apps . He said that was the only way we coukd cancel the transaction. We told him we had to get someone to help us, so he gave us a number to call back him back once we got the app loaded( 650-731-9741)was the number he gave us. We went to our bank, which was different from Wells Fargo. The bank manager helped us and he calked Michael and talkex to him. During the discussion he figure out it was a scam. If we had continued we everything they would have got our money. So thanks to our bank manager we we didnt get scammed out if everything

- Las Vegas, NV, USA

I just confirmed with someone from Wells Fargo that this number (866) 508-7791 is not affiliated with Wells Fargo and prior to that I checked all their numbers that have toll numbers. This is the text I received. Wells Fargo Message / Answer Yes if you recognize: $374.42 @Bath & Body Works. If not use 8665087791 with a line under the number to get me to click which of course I didn't. This is how the top looked of message, wellsnoticemessagez9sZ... when I saw the z in messagez spelled wrong not with an "s" it was another red flag. The thing is I Do Not have an account with this bank but I am concerned from reading on scams to look out for, someone has my number so that can be a start and "fishing" for more information per se.

- Minneapolis, MN, USA

My computer froze up . There was a message to call Yahoo. I did and a woman Sara Nelson answered and said that they were trying to take money out of my savings account to buy child porn and adult porn . She transferred my call to a supposed Wells Fargo Fraud investigator . He said I needed to go to the bank and take 28000 out of my savings and then put it into a “ Federal Machine “. He had me keep my phone on all the time . He said they thought it was an inside job so don’t tell the bank . I was to tell them I was going on a trip . So I did . Then spent the next 8 to 10 hours with him on the phone trying to find a federal machine going to all these sleazy gas stations . Finally found one on East River Road . 8724 East River Road in Fridley , MN . Then he had me put in $15000. I realized it was. a Bitcoin Machine ! He wanted all of my money but I was tired and went home . The next day he wanted to have me drive around again but I went to the police and filed a report and then to the bank and put the remaining 13000 back in my savings account . I also changed my ATM card and my savings account . Have reached out to Bitcoin Fraud and they won’t do anything because I was beyond their 5 day reporting period . I made a police report . I also reported to the FBI . The scammer called me 20 times the next day before I blocked his call . I would like to get my money back but highly doubt I will .

- Salmon, ID, USA

A man named (joe) called me, he was not an english as primary language individual. He identified himself as working for wells fargo fraud dept and told me there was an abnormal purchase in Memphis, TN on my card. He attempted to send me an access code to verify my identity, he rattled off the last four of my social security number and then he made the mistake of giving an inaccurate mailing address for me. I promptly told him i was not trusting him and in fact i was going to the local wells fargo bank to check on this in person. He tried to strongly discourage that and wanted to handle this on the phone immediately.

I just got back from my local Wells Fargo bank, where a teller looked up my account history and in fact found NOTHING of a purchase in Memphis or for the price this Joe quoted me on.

I came back to my office and tried to phone this Joe, he answered my call and when i questioned his behavior as fraudulent, he immediately hung up on me and would not take any of my ongoing calls. This person needs to be removed from our society

Pretending to be Wells Fargo.

- Fairbanks, AK, USA

Was called by an individual claiming to be from Wells Fargo stating that there was a suspicious charge on my account and wanted to confirm details of my card to cancel it and resend a new one. When I said i would call the company myself because i was suspicious he immediately hung up. Call to the actual company confirmed this was all untrue and call was a scammer phishing for information.
