Total money lost $5,000
Type of a scam Online Purchase
I initially used *** to fix my computer. They sold me products to protect the integrity of my computer. They now have tried to refund me money because they say the product was compromised. I received a call yesterday and have received many calls where they either place money over the amount in your account or switch the amounts in your accounts and claim that they over refunded you by accident. Then they ask you to send them the refund by cash transfer or Western Union to an address they give you after you withdraw the money from your account. The Cash Transfer is usually done at a Wells Fargo or a Bank America where they have a separate and short term account. The money is retrieved immediately after it enters the account.
