My mom got a call from someone claiming to be from EMAR MARKETS. They said someone had tried to withdraw money using an ID with her name on it and even sent her photos of the supposed person. They told her she couldn’t hang up while they handled it. They convinced her to buy cashier’s checks made out to other people at one branch, then go to another branch of the same bank and deposit them. They wanted her to use the ATM, but she didn’t know how, so she went to a teller instead. It was $9,000 total. I found out hours later and had her call the real fraud department using the number on her card. They confirmed it was a scam, locked her account, and told her to go to the branch where she bought the checks first thing in the morning. She doesn’t have the receipts, but they said the branch can pull up the records. I’m in another city, and she’s panicked and crying. I’m terrified she’s going to lose all that money. I have been talking to lotu svel and they have been working really fast to get to the bottom of this. Has anyone been through something like this? Were you able to get any of it back?
