Phishing - Loan approval

So far I have received at least 50 phones calls from different numbers and I blocked every single one of them but each time they use a different number and always leave the same voice message below: “Hello, this is Vanessa with the small business unions West Coast branch I've been trying to connect with you or someone from your finance team over the past few days regarding your business funding approval I left a voicemail and even sent a text last week but haven't been able to get in touch If you have a moment now, press two to connect with me or someone from underwriting directly your file has been reviewed. We just need to confirm a couple quick details and you can go ahead and select your preferred terms on the loan portal. Your approval is only valid through the end of July so that means this Thursday is the last day to wrap things up. You're always welcome to reapply down the road, but I'd love to help you finalize it now if we can.

A carousel ad on a news site highlighted a 'rare' 1969 Pontiac Firebird available immediately. Their escrow link mirrored a known service but had a hyphenated domain. Tracking numbers they issued belonged to parcels already delivered months ago. Live chat reps dodged video calls, feeding me pre-shot clips looped from other auctions. Persuaded, I sent 32,330 USD via a cryptocurrency payment. The tracking portal froze at 'label created', and nothing else moved—except my cash.

The website https://myhathaven.com/ uses false advertising to lure unsuspecting customers into purchasing high-quality headgear, i.e., hats, etc. I made an order on June 12 for three hats totaling $180.20. The retailer responded that handling time can take up to 10-30 business days. I followed up with them on July 4 to get an estimated delivery date. They responded on July 6 that the products would be mailed within 24-48 hours. I responded on July 7 that I would appreciate receiving the hats as soon as possible. They did not respond. I reached out again on July 17 after not receiving the hats and asked that they refund my money since the hats had not arrived. MyHatHaven responded on July 24 that the products were on the way. I followed up again on August 1, asking for a refund. I'm awaiting a response. I also filed a claim with PayPal since that's the method I used to pay the retailer. I do not expect to hear back from the retailer. They are a scam.

Online Purchase - Online Purchase

I spotted a tidy 1954 Chevrolet Bel Air with fresh chrome and period hubcaps, priced like a quick sale. The seller promised overnight paperwork and a couriered title once funds cleared. They pushed crypto because “banks were slow this week.” I paid in digital currency and received a PDF bill of sale that referenced an address which didn’t exist on any map. The shipper name was real, but the booking number wasn’t. Every breadcrumb led to nothing, and I learned the hard way how easily a believable story can empty your account. 

Reporting cryptocurrency complaints and scams

If you believe you have been a victim of a cryptocurrency scam or fraud, here's how you can file a complaint and seek assistance:

1. Stop communication and transactions
Immediately stop sending any money or cryptocurrency to the suspected criminals. Do not notify the suspected criminals of any reports made to law enforcement, as this may compromise their ability to investigate. 

2. File a report with relevant agencies; FBI Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3): This is a key resource for reporting cryptocurrency investment fraud and other cyber-enabled crimes. You can file a report at ic3.gov. Federal Trade Commission (FTC): Report cryptocurrency scams to the FTC at ReportFraud.ftc.gov. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC): File a complaint with the CFTC at CFTC.gov/complaint. U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC): You can submit a tip or complaint to the SEC at sec.gov/tcr. Local Law Enforcement: Report the crime to your local police department, including details like your wallet address, the scammer's wallet address, and transaction hashes. Cryptocurrency Exchange: Contact the cryptocurrency exchange you used to send the money and report the fraudulent transaction.

3. Provide comprehensive information: When filing reports, include as much information as possible, including: Scammer Details: How they contacted you, identifying information (name, phone, address, email, usernames). Transaction Information: Dates, amounts, types of cryptocurrency involved, account numbers (including cryptocurrency wallet addresses), receiving financial institution details, and receiving cryptocurrency addresses. Transaction IDs (hash): These are important for tracking cryptocurrency transactions. 

4. Be cautious of recovery services: Be extremely wary of any service claiming to recover lost cryptocurrency, especially those that demand an upfront fee, as these are often scams themselves. 
Common cryptocurrency complaints and scams: Some common types of cryptocurrency complaints and scams include: Imposter Scams: Scammers impersonate legitimate businesses or individuals to gain access to your accounts or information. Investment Scams: These often promise high returns with low risk and rely on funds from new investors to pay earlier investors. These include "pig butchering" scams, where scammers build relationships with victims and then lure them into fake investments. Phishing Scams: Scammers use fake emails, websites, or messages to trick you into revealing sensitive information like private keys or passwords. Pump and Dump Schemes: Artificially inflating the price of a cryptocurrency and then selling off the holdings, causing the price to crash.
Fake ICOs and Exchanges: Bogus Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs) and platforms that mimic legitimate ones to steal funds. Liquidity Mining/Yield Farming Scams: Fraudulent investment opportunities promoted through private messaging platforms. Giveaway/Airdrop Scams: Impersonating public figures or companies offering free crypto, often using social media or websites. Romance Scams: Scammers develop relationships with victims through dating apps or social media and then introduce them to fraudulent investment opportunities. 

Additional considerations: Cryptocurrency transactions are generally not reversible, making it difficult to recover funds once they are sent.
Government agencies like the FDIC do not insure cryptocurrency accounts. Always exercise caution, research thoroughly before investing, and be suspicious of anyone guaranteeing high or quick returns.
If you are 60 or older, you can contact the National Elder Fraud Hotline (833-372-8311) for assistance with filing an IC3 complaint.

I chased a dream listing for a 1965 Ford Mustang—clean paint, tidy engine bay, “garage kept.” The seller said the car sat in storage and couldn’t be shown, but inspection photos would follow. The VIN looked plausible until a decoder spit back mismatched trim details. A “shipping coordinator” promised pickup as soon as funds hit. I initiated a bank wire transfer after being told card payments weren’t possible. All I got afterward were recycled emails and a tracking link that never populated. Days of promises turned into silence, and I was left with an empty account and no Mustang.

Identity Theft - Utility New Connection Duke Energy-Impostor

I was misrouted to this phone number thinking it was Duke Energy. The person speaking repeatedly told me I had the correct phone number for Duke Energy and he was going to help me set up my electrical services. He collected my personal information including email, phone #, SS# and Drivers license #. He wanted a substantial deposit $375 and was very pushy with a sales pitch stating if I also signed up for the alarm system for the home they would cover the deposit. Upon continued questioning if this was Duke Energy the rep continued to say yes and did not identify that they were a separate company. He then transferred me to another "supervisor" who also claimed this was Duke Energy and continued to be pushy to the sale of the alarm system. I did not proceed giving them any financial information. I was able to sign up on line at Duke Energy official website for $0 deposit. This company is not truthful and it is concerning what they will do with my personal information.

Scammer started off by advertising an Air B&B online assistant hourly remote job, but when I was contacted through what’s app it wasn’t at all that job. It was actually uploading reviews for cars for commission which was limited to 33 generated cars a day. If you get into the negative they want you to use your own money to get out of the negative to continue to generate the rest of your reviews before they will pay you a $200 salary plus your measly little commission a day and they pay with crypto. So since I’m trying to earn money because I’m broke, I could and wouldn’t use my own money to get out of the negative. So basically that was the end of that. I paid them $20 through cashapp which did come up scam but was told that that’s how cashapp is. So these people are ripping people off that like me can’t even afford to live in this damn state and will be homeless soon. It was definitely too good to be true.
