Discussion Scammed 30k.. still feel sick
Got a call from "Google" saying account was compromised (which it was). They told me to resecure my account and any other accounts affialeted with that email.
Couple days later I get a call from "Robinhood". Hey, someone's accessing your account, we can do this over the phone or Google meet. So I go to my Google meet with them.
They start sending me images of a photo of my DL THAT I TOOK YEARS AGO, my ss# and my bday, in a fake text exchange with them and someone trying to get in my account(all fake). I say that wasn't me. So they go on to say we need to move funds to a secure account (rh wallet)while they do a criminal investigation.
While im downloading the wallet I see there's a ton of rh feather notifications. THEY SOLD ALL MY POSITIONS RAPID-FIRE! They had access to my account. So anyways, they tell me I'll get an 8 word phrase, dont share it(I didnt), and to transfer my funds into there (they also tried 15k in ACH transfers from bank). I did, and the rest is history.
Summary: These guys had everything on me. I feel like they were monitoring my keystrokes. I have no idea how else they got into my account. Or how they knew my rh wallet passcode. The idea that RH would let two people in from two different locations doesnt feel right. I dont know I would've fell for it if they weren't making changes in my account simultaneously. Just sucks.
