I fell victim to a scam where the person claimed they would send me a free PS5 due to a family tragedy. After agreeing to accept it, I was asked to pay $[redacted] for shipping via FedEx. Following that, they requested more money for an expedited delivery due to a supposed plane crash in the UK. Feeling uncertain about shipping costs, I ended up paying extra. The scammer then informed me of a plane crash and demanded $[redacted] for ransom, stating the package was at a fire station in Alabama. I took immediate action by contacting my bank to report fraud and filing a police report. It's important to be cautious of these types of scams.

Good afternoon. I have a business account with Bank of America, and I am facing an issue. My company name comprises three words. When I registered the account and provided the Articles and EIN to the bank, the full and correct company name was given. However, on the account and bank statement, only the first two words of my company name are displayed, and the third word is missing. This has caused confusion, making it appear as if it is a different company. How can I rectify this and include the third word in my company name on the account? Thank you!

For the past two months, I've been getting repeated requests for an $89.99 subscription I never signed up for. Each time my bank spots the scam, they block my card, issue a replacement, but the scammer seems to have access to my new cards. As soon as I activate a new card, the same request from the company comes in, leading the bank to halt the transaction, block the card, and send me yet another one. I'm already on my fourth card in just two months.

Hello from Bulgaria, I recently received a new debit card but am unable to activate it as I do not have the PIN. The phone number associated with my account is outdated, preventing me from making changes online. I am in need of assistance and would appreciate a call from the bank. I can provide a contact number. Please note that Bulgaria is 7 hours ahead of Eastern Daylight Savings Time. Best regards, William A. Templer Shumen, Bulgaria

Dear Madam/Sir, I am writing to inform you of an ongoing investigation in Hungary, Budapest involving an individual named Marco Mongardini, an Italian national. He is being investigated for alleged fraud, money laundering, and other criminal activities. The case has been registered at the Budai Központi Kerületi Bíróság under case number 7.B.[redacted]/[redacted]/15. Marco Mongardini is accused of swindling money using fake documents that falsely claimed to be associated with the Bank Of America. We are seeking the email contact of Bank Of America or a valid postal address where the Hungarian court can direct inquiries to determine if the fraudster had legitimate dealings with the bank. Your assistance in this matter is greatly appreciated. Sincerely, Gabor Antal

I recently received a call from "Customer Service" claiming to be from Bank of America. The representative mentioned a suspicious $[redacted] purchase made in Canada using my account and requested me to verify my account details to cancel the transaction. When I inquired about her credentials, she shared her name, location, and a contact number. Unfortunately, I did not note down this information. Given I do not have a Bank of America account, I ended the call. Upon attempting to contact the number provided, I reached an automated system similar to the one here. I am uncertain if this number is legitimate or not.

Hello! I'm Alisa. I had $25 deducted from my BOFA card while I was in Russia and couldn't reload it. In [redacted], I was part of the Work and Travel program as a J1 student.

Where will my tax refund be directed if the card remains blocked?

Hello, I am Tleumbetova A. I am experiencing issues with my debit card. Upon checking the BofA app, I received an error message stating, "We are unable to process your request because there are no eligible accounts associated with this User ID." Additionally, I received a notification from Apple Pay stating that my "BofA Mastercard Debit" cannot be used. As I am currently in my home country and unable to call the provided helpline, I am hopeful for assistance via email. Thank you.

Dear Sir/Madam, My name is Constantinos Georgakopoulos from Greece. I am encountering issues logging into my bank account, No [redacted], as I am prompted to enter a code from my mobile phone. Unfortunately, despite requesting the code, it is not being received, hindering my login. I noticed that the phone number listed on your website is missing the country code for Greece ([redacted]), which I suspect is the reason the code is not reaching my phone. Could you kindly assist me in updating my phone number from [redacted] to [redacted][redacted] to ensure I receive the code for login purposes? Alternatively, is it possible to receive the code via email? I have not been able to access my account for a considerable time, and any guidance would be greatly appreciated. If needed, please contact me via the email address associated with my account, which is where I receive statements from your bank. Thank you for your assistance. Kind regards, Constantinos

I have contacted Bank of America's phone number twice. During my first call, the phone tree disconnected me after several minutes of not understanding my answers. On the second call, after waiting on hold for 15 minutes, I was disconnected again. On May 30, [redacted], I reported fraud to BOA after being overcharged by Barton Publishing. Despite declining upgrades during my purchase, Barton Publishing charged me $[redacted].27 instead of the expected $30. The representative said I had to wait for the transaction to "post" before reporting the fraud. After several days, on June 30, [redacted], I received a temporary refund pending an investigation. Today, June 3, [redacted], I received an unwanted package from Barton Publishing, containing items I never ordered. Despite repeated hang-ups when contacting BOA for help, this unwanted package is part of the ongoing investigation. I seek guidance on returning the package and ensuring I am not charged for it. Your attention to this matter is crucial for the investigation to consider all relevant information. Your prompt assistance is appreciated. Rob Isenberg

My name is Isabella D'Incecco, and I have had an account with BofA since [redacted]. Recently, I attempted to send $2,[redacted] via Zelle to my nephew in Spain, but the transaction was unsuccessful. The next day, I tried to send $[redacted], but encountered the same issue. Despite numerous calls to BofA's customer service, I was informed that my online banking access and account have been blocked. I was advised to visit a BofA branch to resolve this issue. Unfortunately, as I reside in Bolivia, traveling to the United States to resolve this matter is not feasible. Are there any alternative solutions available to assist me? Thank you for your help.

My account was accessed from a different location leading to an anti-fraud alert and the subsequent locking of my account. Upon contacting customer service, I was directed to the anti-fraud department but faced language barriers as none of the staff spoke Chinese. They advised me to visit the United States, which is not feasible for me due to expensive airfare. Being Chinese, I struggle to communicate effectively in English over the phone. I have refrained from using my card for over a year now, as I typically log into my account without any issues.

My personal bank account was closed recently after being overdrawn by $40. I found this odd because it was showing as paid off but then suddenly closed without any explanation. I am confused about how it became overdrawn in the first place and then apparently got paid without any deposit showing. Shortly after, I received another email saying the account was closed without any further details provided.

I encountered an issue at the airport in Argentina while trying to pay for my baggage. Unfortunately, my Bank of America card was not working, causing me to miss my flight. Prior to this incident, I was browsing Booking.com to secure accommodation in Mexico, where I am traveling to renew my USA student visa in three days. When I attempted to make a payment for a hotel reservation, my bank flagged it as a fraudulent transaction, leading to complications. I urgently need assistance in resolving this matter.

I am currently abroad and have received notifications indicating that I am behind on my mortgage payments and the bank is looking to accelerate my loan under Account Number [redacted]46. Upon reviewing my Bank of America online banking statement, I have noticed the following recent payments: - June 30th - $[redacted] - June 1st - $[redacted] (with an additional $90 payment in between) - May 1st - $[redacted] - March 31st (close to April 1st) - $[redacted] - March 1st - $[redacted] I am puzzled by the intention to accelerate the loan as I have not observed any drastic inconsistencies in my payment history shown on the online banking records. Considering my location overseas, I might have missed any correspondence regarding interest rate adjustments. Unfortunately, it seems that I am unable to reach a representative due to the limited operating hours that align with the United States time zone. Is there no international helpline available 24/7? I request the opportunity to speak with a representative to resolve any misunderstandings promptly. Best regards, AC

I was approached by someone interested in purchasing my social media account for $5,[redacted]. To ensure the buyer's seriousness, I asked for a $50 transfer as proof. Subsequently, they requested my bank details, full name, identity card (with important digits erased), email, and phone number. Claiming to have sent $5,[redacted], they asked me to cover hefty taxes first. Unable to afford this, I declined. The buyer accused me of lying and threatened to report me. I am uncertain of my next steps.

I have requested 2 transfers to my daughter in Canada from my Bank of America checking account ($2,[redacted].04 on June 27 and $[redacted].97 on June 28). The funds were debited immediately, and I received confirmation emails the next day. Days later, my daughter had not received the transfers. TD Bank indicated the transfers were rejected due to an error in her name. I was informed it would take five business days to resolve the issue. However, 16 days after the transfer request and 14 after the rejection, the funds are still missing from my account. I am currently outside the U.S. and have made numerous calls, incurring high long-distance charges, but have not received assistance despite speaking to multiple agents. I am seeking guidance on who to contact to resolve this matter promptly. Thank you, A. Cadavid
