Total money lost $308
Type of a scam Sweepstakes/Lottery/Prizes
This person keeps calling my dad who is 86 years old and he’s already sent this guy about $400. He has my dad go to a Wells Fargo and deposit money into an account; $100, $100, $200. He said it was required to process his prize. He has never delivered anything to my dad. He has an accent. He sent $92.00 back to my dad through Walmart and it was sent via a financial services company in California. The cell phone says New Jersey. The Wells Fargo account is in a woman’s name. It think this is organized crime.
Please help!
You’ll see one deposit slip and a receipt for the money the scammer sent back via Walmart. Like I said he made three deposits, $100, $100, and $200. My dad is out $308.00. The scammer only refunded $92.00 and that was to keep my dad from being mad. He’s been dragging my dad along. I’ve talked to the guy and told him I know what he is doing and he’s cussed me out. He is very clearly a scammer. My dad feels embarrassed.
