Customer was in front of me while performing a transaction at a Woodforest Branch and he received a call from the number claiming to be from Woodforest National Bank. It is a Saturday and back office is usually closed on the weekends. The customer put it on speaker to let me hear as well and the potential scammer knew the customers name and a few other things about his bank account. I told the customer I would report the number just to make sure it wasn't a scam call.

My friend mailed me a Visa Vanilla gift card for $50 as a gift and when I called the phone number on the back of the card to activate it, I misdialed. The people who answered the phone asked for the card number and told me to wait 24 hours to use it. When I went to use the card to make a purchase, there was .08 cents remaining on the card. They had taken all of the money off of the card.

I recently did a wire transfer from cell to another persons cell. I looked up the customer service number online to try to get it figured out since I’m not proficient with the Zell app so when I grab the number from online website they answered the phone but they didn’t answer the phone with the business name and then when I got to asking who I called they got really rude so when I went into the Zelle app to get the actual customer service number it was completely different from the Online number that I initially grabbed in the first place. I had to block the number since they kept calling me and harassing me and was extremely rude.

They got me to “say yes” by pretending they were Chase bank and I should’ve known because today is Labor Day, and I know all the banks are closed.

I received an email saying that my Venmo account had a sign in attempt from a new device. I then received several phone calls with a recorded voice saying that my Venmo account was trying to be accessed and asked for me to provide my information.

I was told that I had to set up a Zelle account to receive money from my insurance company. I had difficulty registering for a Zelle account and the representative Ezie Tanner Bennet told me that I had to buy a target gift card in the amount of $490. Then the representative (who I thought was Zelle) told me to buy 4 more gift cards in the same amount. The representative got access to my bank account. Thankfully I did not buy the 4 additional gift cards. I lost $490

i was looking for a company to manage my rental property rental payments so that the tenants can pay the rent to the managing company. I found that according to the web site Chase Bank offered this program thru their commerical division in Irvine, CA under the Story JPMORGAN Program. I completed the in formation requested on line which included the number of rental units and the location of the units. The representative Bailey Martinez was to contact me to go over a video showing what the program was able and how they would be managing the rental income for me. I never got a call back from Bailey Martinez. After not getting a call from Bailey Martinez, I contacted the local Chase Bank and was told they were not aware of this program. I was given the telephone number for the Chase Branch in Irvine, CA and was told they did not have such a problem.

On this website it showed how they collect the rental payments, provide a spread sheet showing the accounting of the rental income and the names of the tenants and the amount of rent paid. This then would be posted to your account.

I did receive an email from bailey.martinez @jpmorgan. com confirming that they would contact me to show me a demo of all of the services they provide and the cost for 2023 would be free.

Earlier this morning I received 5 calls purportedly from Bank of America. Somehow, they knew I had used my BofA credit card yesterday and wanted to verify if I made a purchase in New York today. When I said "no" the gentleman insisted that this fraud attempt needed to be reported to Experian and issued a "Complaint Number" which I recorded. He asked me to hold while he connected me to Experian Credit Bureau - after a few seconds of dead air, I hung up. Then I started receiving calls from 1 -888-457-3103 identified as Experian Consumer ...

When I answered, a gentleman with a similar accent as the BofA caller identified himself as Mark Adam, Attorney at Experian. He asked for the complaint #, which I provided but then he referenced the BofA Account with purported fraud and stated he wanted to confirm my other credit accounts on file. I told him to mail me the list and I would confirm, I was at work and he was disrupting me doing my job. He agreed to send me the information in the mail. Any other card I have experienced attempted fraud with did not operate like this and I was not going to provide any Personal or NPI over the phone.

This person hacked into one of my friends profile on Facebook and they posted a online job. they then had me download an app called "Singnal" . Gave me a passcode. long story short they asked for my bank information. did not think anything of it until they ask for my username and passwords. That is when I know that my friend would not have said that. I knew someting was up. I did five my bank routing number and Account number but nothing else.

Received a call from an unfamiliar number that showed as "PAYMENT SVCS" which naturally I didn't answer, and they left a voicemail that shows a caller ID of Coeur d'Arlene, ID. A "John" left a voicemail advising that he was calling from the US Bank Fraud Preventions, had my first name, and then gave a case number along with separate phone number of 866-268-7231 to call and inquire about the case number. I searched up both phone numbers, and while the number they were calling from did show as a US bank location, it's at a random branch and doesn't appear to be an HQ, while the 866 number quickly pulled up that it was a scam.

Scam Tracker report entered on behalf of victim by ScamPulse.com Employee: I received a call from 'my favorite scammer' asking for two more money cards -- one for $500 and one for $300. I told him I didn't have any more money and my credit cards were maxed out. He said he would pay off my credit cards and gave me this financial information:

Bank Name: Wells Fargo

Routing: 021200025

Account: 6615564157

Also another phone number: 776 262 1365

Once I get the cards I will be visited by two lawyers with papers for me to sign to receive my prize. Rest assured I will not get the money cards! I will stop by my local Wells Fargo and check out the bank account information.

I received an invoice, and I did not purchase this. I have been invoiced. I called 888-713-4911 and I told them I did not order this or even inquired about it. They asked me questions and then they sent me to the cyber division (Central cyber fraud division) I spoke to a Ben Frank and at 888-221-1161 but told me to call back to his direct line at 858-221-7917 after I get something figured out. He wanted me to go get a gift card from target in the amount of $ 500.00 and call him back. He said this would trap them after I saved it to my devise for them to take the money off the gift card. then he said we would be able to file a lawsuit and get the $ 500.00 back and plus money for my aggravation. I would not have to pay court fees etc. that they would handle all of that. Not even an hour goes by he called me back to see if I was able to get the gift card. Which was very suspicious to me. So, I looked up and this appears to be a scam. So now they have all my personal information etc. So, if I am correct, how do i take care of this? What do I need to do? I logged into my PayPal account, and it does not show that I have purchased anything or no invoices? I have removed my banking information and tried to close my account. However, I have $ .69 in foreign currency, I am unable to close my account with PayPal.
