Description
Similar incident. I didn’t send any $$ but did send a picture of my DL & one of my bank account details. I was initially contacted via f/b messenger. They had me open an account on some Nova…. App. I was offered $20k but there was $68k in this trading account. However I was unable to access anything. Buy. Sell. Etc. I was then told they needed a $100gift card to pay the “PVC Fee”. I couldn’t pay it. They said I could Zelle or cashapp or Venmo to them. I asked “why not a credit card?” You can’t cancel a Zelle or Venmo payment once it’s sent. You can stop payment on a credit card or debit card. I finally came here to BBB & looked up the company name given to me. Found 6 scams mentioning the same company. I’m sure there’s many more. I took a screenshot & sent it to the person texting me. I’ve not heard back since.
