[quote=Anonymous]My mom got caught in a scam when she got an e-mail about a charge that she had never authorized. She called them and they gave her a "refund" for $6,000 more than she was supposed to get (about $200, supposedly). She went to the bank and authorized a wire transfer for the $6K to them and hasn't gotten it back. I wrote into DCUM about it and someone suggested I reach out to the CFPB, which I did. My uncle was able to get the wire transfer stopped, but the bank hasn't returned her money. Apparently the bank just holds on to it until they complete their review or whatever, which seems to be never-ending.[/quote]
