The call came up as Wells Fargo and Janet Beanstein and customer service about account security. I gave account number and last 4 of social security. I was then forwarded to a voice mail. No return call. I recorded the call on my home phone. I checked my account and no alerts. Then I called customer service at Wells Fargo and was told this was a scam and action was taken regarding my account.

I received an email from an alleged PayPal stating to confirm a transaction completed from my account and I called 813-644-8556 to gather more information and when I refused to sign into a google to "close my account". He had my personal information and sounded like he was from India or overseas. He demanded that I close account in order to cancel transaction and it sounded fishy to me so I refused and said it sounded like he was a scammer. I cursed me out and hung up on me and when I called the number back he threatened me and my family if I reported if didn't stop calling. Phone number is 813-644-8556 email came from James Burkes <[email protected]>.</[email protected]>

I tried to call your bank, someone named Victor answered the phone and said that I won a voucher to be used at Target, Walmart, and restaurants. He then said I had to give him my bank debit card information so he could get the shipping and handling paid for the voucher. 3 weeks went by and I still haven't received anything in the mail. I called him today and he said they already sent it 3 times to my mailbox but I never got it, and they couldn't keep sending it. He told me he'd refund the money on the debit card, but I already closed debit card after he took the money out. After that, they shut their phones off and I can't get a hold of them now.

Pretended to be fraud dept about a 1499 charge for a laptop. She said she would take care of that but it looked like my SSN had been stolen. She connected me to a SSA person. She said my number is being used to launder money so she connected me to a US Marshal who directed me to withdraw money and load it to Walmart debit cards and he would forward the info on the cards to the treasury dept so I would be reimbursed because the feds were going to have to freeze my assets and give me a new SSN.

I received a phone call from the 391-361-1616 phone number. I said hello and then a female voice said hello (twice), and I repeated hello.

Then the female voice asked "can you hear me," and I responded "yes." Then the phone call went directly to an automated recording that stated

"this is Chase Bank calling about an issue with your account."

Then I immediately hung up on the phone call.

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.
