Fraud alert - "Bank of America" just called
<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>Wow. </p> <p>That was the most convincing scammer I've ever dealt with. I just received a call from Bank of America who wanted me to fill out a form for the cryptocurrency I've been buying on Uphold.</p> <p>The woman claimed I needed to verify on a form whether or not I was buying as a business or a individual and said they'd be mailing a form for me to fill out. She knew my email address, my date of birth, and the month I bought crypto from uphold. I dont fucking know how...</p> <p>Something felt off so I called BOA fraud line and they immediately told me it was not them. Just a friendly reminder, Bank of America will never ask you to fill out a form just for buying crypto.</p> <p>If something feels off, or even if you question a phone call the smallest bit - go ahead and call your bank. The entire process took less than 5 minutes to verify and it's better to be safe than sorry.</p> <p>Fuck scammers.</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> Kind Regards R
