♦️THE BAD NEWS ♦️ THE GOOD NEWS ♦️
It’s true. This really happened to me. After scammers trying all kinds of tricks to scam me over the years, they nailed me good.
The details are quite complex. The short version is that they quickly got me believing that I was talking to Rick, my son. Once they had me believing that, they fed me more and more b.s. and I believed them. So I gave up $10,000 in cash.
I have to credit the two Wells Fargo Bank officers who kept me from losing an additional $8,000. They went far beyond what I ever expected to assist me: Ms. Belinda Nicole Davis (Small Business Banker) and Ms. Martha Elena Dunn (Regional Banking Manager).
The good news: I’ve recovered 100% of this ghastly loss! How? Well, I listened to my old man and always buy as much insurance as I can afford. Well over a month after this incident I queried my local STATE FARM agent to see if any of this loss was covered. The local people said that at least a couple hundred bucks was covered. After submitting a claim, the folks that work on these claims discovered that I was covered for fraud, identity theft and similar criminal activities up to fifty grand. A few weeks ago the STATE FARM people transferred the entire $10,000 to my checking account.
