I received a text message from a number acting as if they were the PNC Fraud Department. The message read "Did you attempt to use your PNC Debit Card for $352.42 @Walmart in BOSTON, MA on 1/28? Reply Yes/No/HELP. To opt out Reply STOP." I panicked because just last week, the real PNC fraud department called me because they noticed suspicious purchases on my account. I checked my statements and sure enough, they were correct. So, PNC has since turned off my card and issuing me a new one in mail. When I received this text today, I thought it was PNC again catching fraud related activity on my account. I replied "Yes" to the text and received a response that stated "Thank you for your response. A representative will be reaching out to you shortly." This person called me and at first it seemed legitimate. He went on to say someone attempted to use my card but it was blocked. He then told me that someone also scheduled a Zelle payment of $2,100.00 to be withdrawn from my account tomorrow. He also informed me that someone most likely has access to my bank account. I panicked and informed him that wasn't me and asked what I should do. The person kept putting me on hold. I then started to get suspicious because I google searched the number for PNC fraud while I was on hold and the numbers weren't matching up. I hung up and he immediately kept calling back. Then, I received a Zelle request from this person for a payment amount of $2,100.00. I then realized I was being scammed. I immediately called PNC and let them know what was going on. They double checked my account and informed me that it was a scam attempt. Thankfully, I was able to deny the Zelle request. This scammer was extremely convincing.

“2024 Final Notice” letter claiming to be from PNC Bank (no street address on letter, only the 877 contact number repeatedly.)

Signed “Program Director Amber Lawrence”. In fine print at bottom, “Home Warranty Administered By Warranty Global Group”.

Received this suspicious letter, immediately googled the 877 number, top result was this ScamPulse.com website case report.

The person claimed to be Bob Marshall of the PNC Bank Fraud Department. He was supposedly helping my father with a debit card issued. He had asked for my dad to fax or email the front and back of his driver's license. I called and he gave me a fake case number and employee number.

I was notified by PNC about fraudulent activity on my PNC credit card. He said that he now wanted me to be transferred to the fraud dept for some additional questions. I did not suspect anything as PNC uses foreign call centers and they had spoofed the PNC phone number. The person said that his name was Jason Wallace but he had an Indian accent. He then transferred me to his "supervisor" as I became suspicious. His name was Jay Garcia. I eventually hung up but he had all kinds of my personal info. I had to close my PNC account and purchase a credit monitoring service. PNC should be held accountable for this!

- South Park, PA, USA

I contacted Norton Antivirus to question why I was being charged on my Capital One card for a purchase that I didn't make. While this person (male, Indian accent) was checking into the charge he told me that I had a purchase for $4,500 at 6:00am on 2/13/2024 for a porn website out of China. (Porn Hub). The charge didn't appear on my Capital One charge card. He then instructed me to buy gift cards that would offset the charges to place a red flag on my account. Fortunately, no purchases were made. He called from multiple phone numbers:

1-520-357-3638 (Caller ID was "Hayden, AZ")

1-888-762-2265 (Caller ID was "PNC Bank")

- Canonsburg, PA, USA

Received phone call supposedly from PNC Bank. Caller ID showed same 888 phone number that appears on my credit card. Caller ( female) asked if we had made certain transactions. She was speaking very rapidly. These included a purchase at a Wal-Mart in Houston Tx, and a couple others, also a payment to a James Blakely for $3,000. I replied no to all. Then I asked for the last 4 digits of the card number. My wife and I have cards with different numbers. The caller then gave me the first 4 numbers which I know are common to many cards. I asked again and was given the second 4 numbers. This was a big red flag. I was then transfered to another person, (male) who sounded like he just woke up. At this point I terminated the call.

I then contacted PNC myself and found that there was no fraudulent activity on our account. In addition hey said that PNC will never contact you using the number displayed on the card.

- Chickamauga, GA, USA

They are closing my bank cause what they did they deposited money into my account and I had to buy a gift card then send pic of the gift card to them

They said they was trying to get my credit to where they could approve the loan

- Bryn Mawr, PA, USA

A text was sent purporting to be PNC bank and stating a recent transaction was held up and to contact them. I had just set up an electronic transfer to the IRS for a tax payment that would be due the next day so I overreacted.

There was a link in the text that I did not click on but it gave a number that I unfortunately called. 

8058611113

That was answered by a machine that sounded like PNC bank's computer and asked for log in information.

I started to give that and unfortunately typed in my SSN before coming to my senses and hanging up.

I tried to determine the number the text was sent from but caller ID blocked. I could not determine the number.

I called PNC and confirmed that the text was a phishing text.

Called claiming to be PNC bank helping me dispute fraud activity on my account. Needed “dispute” sent via Zelle ($1,000 payments)

Received a call from the above number stating that it was PNC Bank and that my debit card is locked.

- Gulfport, MS, USA

Lady calls to tell you you’ve been approved for a loan but needs your account information to process a $200 fee. Called the real bank in PA and made them aware she was trying to tell me I got a loan for 8000 but needed my banking information to process 200 security insurance. I called the actual PNC Bank in PA to tell them and they said they’ve had several reports and have forwarded the information to loss prevention  

- Woodridge, IL, USA

The message was from PNC Bank stated my $5,000 loan was approved that they would deposit the funds into my account today. I have accounts with PNC bank, did NOT apply for a loan, and I also know their headquarters is in Pennsylvania
