Description

I misdialed the telephone number of a legitimate business from whom I had a refund due. Jacob stated several times he was with the legitimate business and insisted he needed to verify my identity using my bank information before issuing the refund. I stupidly fell for it, but halfway through the call decided it was a scam. I immediately went to the bank and withdrew my funds plus I placed a freeze on the account. Today, Jacob tried to cash a check in which he misspelled both my names.
