Victim Location77346 Total money lost$3,750 Type of a scamPhishing
This person put money on my account and an refund and put extra , they asked me to pay it back with gift cards. When I went back and checked they had actually taken the money from my savings and made it look like a refund. They are now saying that the ScamPulse.com is involved and to call them for the report because the gift cards needs more funds. They took a total of $1,999 and $1750.

I am not sure if you can do anything about this, but I wanted you to know about it.
I received this email notification (below) and thought it was a reputable company since I had MacAfee but when I called this number listed it found out the hard way it was not. I talked to a Tim or Jim. They had such an accent I could not understand what all they said. They said to cancel they had to get into my computer so like a fool I let them. This was where my trouble started. They told me they were updated my computer and I told them not to. I did not want an update, but they took control, and I could not stop them. After I received several fraud alerts from my bank, I unplugged my computer to stop everything hopefully.
I lost no money, but I had to close my bank accounts (2 of them), and open new ones, close out 2 debit cards and order new one which I won’t receive until at least 10 business days from the 30th. Also no one wants to take a starter check. Everywhere I tried to use one it was denied. I had to go back to the bank and get cash to use.
My computer was locked out, so I had to take it to ******* Alabama to Office Depot and it took 2 days and $140.00 not to mention the time and trips of over 30 miles and the problems I could not handle because of no computer.
Thank you for your time.
