Description

Someone called me from Chime saying that they needed to verify a transaction on my account or my account was going to be locked. He called from (930)-209-7489 stating that he is a supervisor with Chime. He went by the name of David Parker. David knew everything about my account before he had me to verify it. He said that if I did not complete the proper steps than my account was going to be locked. He then had me to download an app called AnyDesk, where he remotely got into my phone. He then proceeds to walk me through the verification process. He had me to transfer $973.77 to my checking account from my savings. Then he had me to send $993.00 through the Pay Anyone through the Chime App. After he had me to transfer $417.86 from my Cash App to my Chime account and had me to send $415.00 to a person name Todd-Casey-8 through the Pay Anyone tab on the Chime app. After he had me to transfer $39.78 from my credit builder account on Chime to my Checking Account as well as $34.00 from the My Paycheck to my checking account as well. Then he had me to send another $77 to Todd-Casey-8 through the Pay Anyone on Chime. On the transfer to Todd- Casey-8 for $415 I even put a comment FOR: RESET AND UNLOCK ACCOUNT SHEDERRICA BURNSIDE. On the second transaction to Todd-Casey- 8 for $77 transaction, I put a comment that says FOR: VERIFY. After all of my money was transferred to this Todd-Casey-8 person the guy immediately hung up the phone. I called the number back (930)-209-7489 and the guy answered the phone saying " Thank you for calling Chime". I was scammed out of all of my money by a person that stated they were a supervisor through Chime. I even filed a dispute with Chime. Less than 13 hours later I received an email saying the investigation was completed and no fraudlent transactions was found even though Chime told me it would take up to 45 days.
