It's chase people, who team up with the criminals, giving criminals customers' accounts information and refused to return their money. Thanks God, l already closed chase account.
@AzizamjessI thought Chase was always quickest to deny a suspicious transaction forcing you to reply to a text verifying you were indeed the one making the transaction before they allow it to go through

My husband and I was scammed twice last year, totaling losses over $550k. It was a lengthy process involving federal intervention to get our money back. We need more people like Retrievebackteam taking a stand against these criminals. Much love and support from California.
Something similar happened to me January of last year. Someone requested an ACH transfer of $1200 from my checking account. I went to Chase and had it refunded and resolved. It happened again 2 weeks later from the same person; it got refunded again but I had to close my account. You're supposed to close your account even if it happens once!!
@@draco2xx it was a really old account that I've had since college. The account and routing numbers don't change.

Either way, I closed that account after the incident.

Your not supposed to close your account after an attempted fraud alert, your supposed to report the incident to the bank and confirm it's actual fraud, then they are supposed to put your account on alert status, automatically initiating higher security measures and actions, along with investigative procedures. I think Chase is being deceptive.
That's precisely what Chase should have done early on! I've been working with Cindy for several weeks. The story from Chase kept changing. They were trying to wear her down, so she would give up. I ran into Bill Spencer last night at Kroger and told him the story. He said let's do a story tomorrow and we did, lol.
It will happen again to new account. How did the criminals got into her account, how did chase transfer (through zelle) the criminals money from her acct without her authority ? Even when she contacted chase saying that she didn't send, chase continued to let it happen 3 more times ? Think about it. It's all chase. The people who work for chase helped the criminals. That's why chase refused to give her back her money. Best thing is get away from chase.
Burglar enters home through unlocked door and steals money. Homeowner changes locks. Happens again. And 4 more times the locks are changed each time. Homeowner continues to leave door unlocked. Blames the lock manufacturer.
Agreed and I would of least kept a couple hundred dollars in that account and moved the rest of it to another account or opened one at another bank right after the first time it happened.
@@teneshaedwards0918 Apparently she wanted her money to be stolen. Maybe she knows who took the money and now is scamming Chase. Doesn't add up to just leave your money available for Zelle robber.
Two factor authentication is no guarantee. Almost all banks require it, and hackers and scammers are finding ways around that. Anyway, I've gotten scam calls that people are stealing my money with Zelle. I say that's fine with me and hang up. Why I say that is I don't use Zelle and never have signed up for Zelle. I live a 100% Zelle free lifestyle and am doing fine.
Actually two factor authentication is what will save you in the end. A lot of folks are uneducated on the topic of security and just fear what they don't know. Knowledge is key, don't be ignorant to the topic.
@@jamie6387 I'm not ignorant and have got my share of calls from people trying to trick me into providing an authentication code. I said it's no guarantee, not that is has no value.
It's a common sense. If you got scammed and resolved with the bank. The next step is to close the account and open a new account because your account has been breached. People are too arrogant thinking everything will be fine after the first scam once the bank has resolved the issue.
How, just how? I have 7 different traditional banks, including chase. I have zelle on all of them. I can only send $500 at a time up to 1,000 a day. On all of them, it's a $5,000 cap a week. How come scammers have such an easier time taking others' money than me withdrawing or sending my own 🤦🏽♂️
I don’t know office Zelle limits but this lady probably gave her information to a scammer. They didn’t access her account on their own. she gave it to them willingly. She was probably involved in the romance scammer.
It depends on the bank and/or your relationship with them. My max is 4k per day and like 25k a week. But my husband is only 1500 a day. Not sure how they factor your limits but everyone is different.
I'm sure there's something this story or tbis lady is leaving out. Like after the first transfer there was prob a "call this number if this wasn't approved by you" type scam that she called and gave information to... And they probably sent her the confirmation code to authenticate (which she thought was chase trying to authenticate the account). That's the most common wire fraud scam.

Two sides to a story, as a consumer like this feels like chase as the evil person but I worked at the fraud dept at Chase and this person fell for a scam and provided information. There’s 2-4 levels of security before money is sent out Zelle. Please ask real questions instead of a quick story
Some people are just brain dead lol they don’t setup protection and have the easiest Password of all time. And then blame the bank for their stupidity.
Following things like this closely as a family member was scammed. It seems like Chase Bank is frequently reported as the financial institution in these issues.
Sounds like she never changed her password on her account she doesn't mention not once of ever changing her password on her bank account, or Zelle account so all they had to do was re-login back into the account sounds like she didn't have 2FA enabled either.
@@Mo4Honesty I begged Chase to lock my account. On the phone on the weekend and in the branch first thing Monday morning and begged them to lock my account. They told me it was locked. Money continued to be stolen during this time. I reported it as fraud within 30 minutes and was told my account was secured. They lied.
If it’s happening multiple times, sounds like either she’s using a compromised public wifi where they can see her entering her info, her device is compromised and she needs to wipe it to factor settings, or someone cloned her SIM card on her phone.
This makes absolutely no sence. If it started happening back in December anyone with a bit of common sence would canceled tbeir cards or bank accounts they have on file. Makes no sense
Whenever you get an email or text. Never use the number or email they give you. Always look up the number yourself before you call. Most times you will find it is a scam.
I've been using Zelle for 3 years now and never had a problem. That lady should've closed her account and started a new account when she got her money back after the first theft. That's why they think she orchestrated the theft after 4 more transactions occurred.
One of the biggest issues, that people don't often realize, is that sometimes the scammers use a spoofing device. They will call you and the number will be the exact telephone number of your bank. They will pretend they are from the fraud department at your bank, and that there appears to be some fraudulent activity, etc... once you engage with them and give them your info, they will steal your $. The best thing is to immediately hang up and call your bank, yourself. Then you will have the real department and they can assist you. Always call the bank. Never engage if they're calling you. It will look completely legit, but it will be a scam. They can call you and make it, look like anyone in your contacts are calling i.e parents, children, friends, etc...
I’m surprised people still use Zelle, it’s like you hear a story like this every day or so, clearly Zelle and the bank allowing Zelle need a better security process for using Zelle
Why didnt she shut it down the first time??! You let them have that 8k bc you were careless and didn't put a stop to it. You should've been more aggressive when it came to protecting your money.
Very sad that years ago Navy Federal Credit Union was promoting this " service " . And even today they still have a connection to it . And they also promote Colonia Penn insurance . When I checked them out , they are a horrible company . Shows how unethical , immoral and corrupt they are . I am sure they get a kickback from how many members sign up .
Very interesting how many people on here seem to think they know this woman and judge her choices and actions when in fact you only know a tiny piece of the story and don’t know her or her character at all.
A) Go to bank in person. Do not call any phone number unless you are 100% certain it is the bank. If you call a scam center, you will wind up giving them more information. GO TO BANK IN PERSON. B) Good luck with the banks. Nationwide, no matter what the issue, banks will tell you good luck.
Everyone in the comment section missed the scam. It wasn't zelle or chase. She called a random number that text her pretending to be chase. NEVER RESPOND or call a random text. She gave that person all her banking info when she called that number
I think she was involved in the scam from the beginning. She didn’t call the number until after the thousand dollars was removed. How did they get access to her account? She gave them the information. I am involved with a team of scam beaters and I too noticed that she said she called the number in the text. it actually sounds like she never contacted the bank. The thousand dollars she got that could have been sent from the scammer if she clicked on the link or called the number in the text.
I guarantee she has been calling the number from the text message instead of actually looking up the Chase corporation number. The reason they're probably saying she knew about these is because she most likely unknowingly gave the scammers her info thinking it was chase. Once you do that it's out of the banks hands and you're better off closing that account and open a new one. She obviously hasn't learned that since she is still using the account that's getting hacked.
This happened to me once with chace and they would not return the funds for weeks and after reaching out to our local news they returned. I quickly closed all my accounts.
how did the culprit snakes got her zelle info to finesse her like that, we need more info on this matter. is her own family member taking advantage of her without her knowing😮
This is her fault as well. If you get hacked you let the bank know and file a police report, then you close your account and then open a new account. Change passwords and security questions and email. If you dont do any of this, then you are asking for trouble. Why are you going to keep the same account knowing your account is compromised? That's why they didnt give her money back. Super lazy.
No disrespect to the lady but if that was me I would transfer all my money to a new bank account and close whatever Zelle account she ever made or never made call customer support to possibly close the account. She could have done all this to prevent it but she wasn’t using her brain sadly…….
ASAP she needs to file a complaint with CFPB and a police report AND she needs to go into her institute and complete an affidavit then have that institution FAX the affidavit to their fraud department - specifically to the rep who handled her case and stated she orchestrated this, keeping both the affidavit submission and fax confirmation for her files AND she also needs to send a registered or certified mail letter - with the tracking number stated in the headline, to the CEO of her financial institution she (or anyone experiencing this or similar) should have recorded all verbal communications of her complaint with customer service and the fraud department - they record the calls and there is no reason the customer should not do the same for their own protection (this is not legal advise nor is it specific to this particular financial institution however, it is what I have done in the past and I was glad I did because in the future when the institution was sued on behalf of consumers, I had all of my documentation to support my claim)
My daughter got scammed out of 2000 right after she turned 18. A month before she started her first job. Was so sad the bank refused to help. I wish these services would just go away. Too easy for the scammers.
This happened to my daughter also with Chase a couple of years ago. Zelle payments too were being made to someone whom she did not know in 3 different payments in a span of a week. She was working and saving from her part-job. It was about a thousand dollars. For an 18 year old at the time, she had worked so hard to save that much. Chase said they would investigate. They then said they couldn’t trace the recipient. However, that the payment was authorized from her device so they cannot recover the money. She broke down and fell to her knees so hard when Chase told us there was nothing else they can do about it but close the investigation. We then proceeded to just close the account. Who knows how much more they would’ve tried to pull out. I’ve also heard of this happening to someone else who also banks with Chase. It sometimes makes me believe it’s an inside job.
She's not being transparent, she did something that she's not revealing. Most likely it's user error. Do not answer to calls or texts from numbers you don't recognize
Either she fell for a fishing attack or she is in on the fraud. Its a common thing in England, where they recruit people to claim their account was hacked.
I would have gotten rid of Zelle and Chase after the first incident. Chase seems to always be letting their customers get ripped off.
This happened to me too through Zelle with Chase!
That scam works for the bank. It should be no surprise that banks act this way
It's chase people, who team up with the criminals, giving criminals customers' accounts information and refused to return their money.

Or got leaked after a hack
Yeah, something doesn’t sound right
If she called back the number in the first text, she probably gave them some critical information
The OLD addage applies: A fool and HER money are soon parted. After I got my first $1,000 back, the account would have been closed. Simple
Everyone in the comment section missed the scam. It wasn't zelle or chase. She called a random number that text her pretending to be chase. NEVER RESPOND or call a random text. She gave that person all her banking info when she called that number
I think she was involved in the scam from the beginning. She didn’t call the number until after the thousand dollars was removed. How did they get access to her account? She gave them the information.
I am involved with a team of scam beaters and I too noticed that she said she called the number in the text. it actually sounds like she never contacted the bank. The thousand dollars she got that could have been sent from the scammer if she clicked on the link or called the number in the text.
I always put myself in their shoes to see what would I do. In this case, I would have closed the account the first time.
Send certified letter to chase ceo
Imagine how many others have gone through this.
All that child support. How will she get her nails done now?
I guarantee she has been calling the number from the text message instead of actually looking up the Chase corporation number. The reason they're probably saying she knew about these is because she most likely unknowingly gave the scammers her info thinking it was chase. Once you do that it's out of the banks hands and you're better off closing that account and open a new one. She obviously hasn't learned that since she is still using the account that's getting hacked.
Now you know why the bank is named Chase ! 😂😂
This happened to me once with chace and they would not return the funds for weeks and after reaching out to our local news they returned. I quickly closed all my accounts.
how did the culprit snakes got her zelle info to finesse her like that, we need more info on this matter. is her own family member taking advantage of her without her knowing😮
Why didn’t the bank Insist to the customer to change her passwords? The bank probably thought she had someone she knows doing this.
Why is the fraud ALWAYS seems to be happening on Chase accounts,?
Zelle cannot send more than 500 once, and there’s a limit for a week. I don’t know how it could happen.
Depending on the bank you are using, Capital One lets me send $2500 daily through Zelle while my Discover checking account only lets me $1000 daily.
This is her fault as well. If you get hacked you let the bank know and file a police report, then you close your account and then open a new account. Change passwords and security questions and email. If you dont do any of this, then you are asking for trouble. Why are you going to keep the same account knowing your account is compromised? That's why they didnt give her money back. Super lazy.
No disrespect to the lady but if that was me I would transfer all my money to a new bank account and close whatever Zelle account she ever made or never made call customer support to possibly close the account. She could have done all this to prevent it but she wasn’t using her brain sadly…….
ASAP she needs to file a complaint with CFPB and a police report
AND
she needs to go into her institute and complete an affidavit then have that institution FAX the affidavit to their fraud department - specifically to the rep who handled her case and stated she orchestrated this, keeping both the affidavit submission and fax confirmation for her files
AND
she also needs to send a registered or certified mail letter - with the tracking number stated in the headline, to the CEO of her financial institution
she (or anyone experiencing this or similar) should have recorded all verbal communications of her complaint with customer service and the fraud department - they record the calls and there is no reason the customer should not do the same for their own protection
(this is not legal advise nor is it specific to this particular financial institution however, it is what I have done in the past and I was glad I did because in the future when the institution was sued on behalf of consumers, I had all of my documentation to support my claim)
Instead of calling the bank, I would have changed password on Zelle or close account with Zelle.
Zelle sends a confirmation code to you before completing the transfer 🤔
I don’t understand why she didn’t close Zelle and change bank account number.
My daughter got scammed out of 2000 right after she turned 18. A month before she started her first job. Was so sad the bank refused to help. I wish these services would just go away. Too easy for the scammers.
She stole that money. No way someone can just have access to your Zelle. You get email and text msg 😂
This happened to my daughter also with Chase a couple of years ago. Zelle payments too were being made to someone whom she did not know in 3 different payments in a span of a week. She was working and saving from her part-job. It was about a thousand dollars. For an 18 year old at the time, she had worked so hard to save that much. Chase said they would investigate. They then said they couldn’t trace the recipient. However, that the payment was authorized from her device so they cannot recover the money. She broke down and fell to her knees so hard when Chase told us there was nothing else they can do about it but close the investigation. We then proceeded to just close the account. Who knows how much more they would’ve tried to pull out. I’ve also heard of this happening to someone else who also banks with Chase. It sometimes makes me believe it’s an inside job.
For the first time I feel better about not having more than 100 dollars in my account.
If I were her I would’ve closed the account after the second one
Sounds like an inside job. Probably the husband lol😂
Dont bank with Chase then.
she knows whos taking it
She's not being transparent, she did something that she's not revealing. Most likely it's user error. Do not answer to calls or texts from numbers you don't recognize
Why not close the account after the 1st instance?
I've never heard of Zelle until now. Thanks to this RUclips video, I'll never have anything to do with them. 👍
Either she fell for a fishing attack or she is in on the fraud.
Its a common thing in England, where they recruit people to claim their account was hacked.
2FA is indispensable. The single most annoying thing I would never want to live without.
