BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION

I'd genuinely like to hear everyones opinion on this. Good, bad, or ugly. [](https://www.reddit.com/r/legaladvice/?f=flair_name%3A%22Real%20Estate%20law%22) Location: SWFL The Lee County court system, under Judges McHugh, Loukonen, and Kyle, has facilitated multiple documented irregularities in the interconnected cases involving the homestead at 9382 Pineapple Rd. In 24-CA-002457, Judge McHugh signed a June 12, 2026 disbursement order despite registry reports showing no cash deposit from the Fifth Third $339,100 credit bid, while a Certificate of Title was issued to Fifth Third on December 10, 2025 after a Bank of America 1099-A reported acquisition on June 23, 2025. Service of court documents on June 22, 2026 omitted the active pro se Personal Representative and routed to relieved former counsel, violating the court's own December 2, 2025 order. Pre-title marketing by Epique Realty / Jim Neal (MLS 2025011611, listed September 22, 2025) occurred while the property remained in possession, raising manufactured-distress questions with documented AVM value collapse during defendants' control. In 25-CA-006971, Judge Loukonen presides over the civil damages action where discovery is stayed via Fifth Third's protective order, yet multiple motions to dismiss continue while §772.11 civil theft demands ripen. In 25-CP-000108, Judge Kyle oversees the probate estate where homestead and claim issues remain unresolved amid the parallel foreclosure. These interconnected actions have delayed resolution, allowed contradictory filings to stand, and failed to address clear registry and title timeline inconsistencies, depriving a pro se litigant and family of due process and homestead rights while protecting bank and realtor positions. The public record is clear and searchable. The question..... if you were in my situation which anybody could be... what would your strategy be? I already pursued the following avenues... 6th DCA Appeal, 4 different writs..... FL Supreme Court 2 differ

[US] 877 number - Bank of America Scam! I don't answer ANY unrecognized calls - ever. This usually gets rid of all the scammers right away. This one left a Robo-message - *Hello, this is Natalie with Bank of America Security. A transaction of $329.81 at Walmart in Charlotte, North Carolina requires your attention. If this was you, please disregard this call. If not, please give us a call back now. Thank you.* OK we do have a BofA acct. so I checked with my husband - no charges made. I called the real BofA number on the card - but couldn't find any way to actually talk to a person. HORRIBLE bank. I did however find an automated thing that would tell the most recent charge - which was over a month ago. So this alleged fraudulent charge - was a FAKE fake charge. Of course I don't call back - but all I can do is report it as a spam phone call. Lesson to all - don't be sucked in by scams that try to cause concern over your accounts and then try to get you to give them info or "verify" things by links, authorizations etc.

FT3 Mining / FT3 Management (Justin Estvold, Austin Dunn) — a pattern across three separate 2026 lawsuits. Public court records inside. If you're considering investing with FT3 Mining (bitcoin mining company), FT3 Management, or with Justin Estvold or Austin Dunn, here is the publicly-filed litigation record as of mid-2026. Everything below is drawn from court filings anyone can pull. None of these allegations has been proven, and the defendants have denied wrongdoing. I'm posting so prospective investors can find the public record and do their own diligence. 1. Cook County, IL — Case No. 2025CH09142 The owner of FT3's Chicago office building brought a third-party complaint against FT3 Management LLC, Justin Estvold, and Austin Dunn for breach of lease, fraud, and civil conspiracy. The complaint alleges: * FT3 signed an 11-year lease (\~$547K/yr base rent, $6.8M+ total) but never posted the $1.78M letter of credit the lease required. * Through spring–summer 2025, Estvold and Dunn allegedly repeatedly said they were "working with Bank of America" to obtain the letter of credit, dodged the landlord's calls citing travel, and ran months of delay. * In August 2025 they allegedly submitted a fake Bank of America letter of credit with a forged signature. * After the lease was terminated, Estvold allegedly sent screenshots of Bank of America wire transfers (showing multi-million-dollar balances) for payments that never arrived — which the complaint alleges may have been fabricated. * In a December 2025 court filing, FT3 said it would wire $3,329,919 once it set up a "new banking partner." The complaint alleges it never did. Estvold answered *pro se*, denying the fraud and conspiracy claims. 2. Delaware Court of Chancery — Case No. 2026-0332 An investor named Jacob Estvold — who shares the founder's surname — states he invested $750,000 and sued FT3 Mining, Inc. to compel inspection of its books and records under Section 220. The complaint alleges FT3 raised over $4 m

(USA) Bank of America & Apple Cash scam First, let me preface this post by stating over the last few weeks my father died, my mom got really sick & was hospitalized and missed his funeral, and my brother has brain cancer & is deteriorating. Prior to the absolute stupidity I engaged in this morning, I had just gotten out of the ER due to breathing issues & was shot up with roids and albuterol. I received a text from BOA asking if I made a purchase. This is pretty common for them to do when big purchases are made. I replied no. Next thing I know I get a call from BOA. Now right there I should have known that was sketchy, as they never call you. They send a f/u text stating to call them. I was on the phone for hours with this scammer and this mothafucka told me my local branch was being investigated for stealing client’s money. He then said that Apple Cash was also involved in this & that I had to send the money there to be put in a new account while they closed my account. Yes, I’m an absolute moron and I transferred money to my Apple cash. Luckily, the transaction did not go through to the new faux account as Apple blocked it. This next part is where it gets worse. I was then transferred to a BOA “FIDC specialist” and he told me there was an outstanding cashier’s check that was going to be cashed which was basically the entire amount in my account. He said I had to go to the bank and ask for my money to be transferred into a family member’s account and provided a name and account number and stated he would stay on the line with me. Stupid me gets in the car and heads to the bank. On the way, the roids must have started wearing off and I was like “wait a minute this is sus.” I arrived at the bank then called BOA using the number on the back on my card and yes, a scam. They are looking into this and I also contacted Apple Cash (as my account was locked). They are pretty sure I’ll get my money back and I hope so as it’s 10K and I was using this to pay for a caregive

Called me because my name was linked to my mom somehow and told me she needed to call 877-643-3928 within an hour or legal mater would be taken against her so my mom called and they told her she had and outstanding balance of $4,000 owed to Bank of America for a loan from 2017 and when she told him she has never felt with Bank of America before he said let me make sure I’m talking to the right person and then listed off her last 4 digits of her social security number (witch was correct) and she said yes that me and then the guy got rude and started saying someone is going to deliver us legal papers in about 30 minutes or we could settle this over the phone and then said the total cost would be $7,000 something (don’t remember exact amount) and she then said why are the numbers changing and they said for filling and attorney fees, she came back and said yeah I’m definitely not paying your directly and he then proceeded to say well then we will have to put a lien on your house and gave us our house address and also said they will garnish any funds in your bank account as well, my mom then said ok I’ll contact my lawyer and asked for his name so she can get her lawyer to call him and he gave his name Michael Lawson and then said there is nothing your lawyer can talk to me about, I then looked up the number on my phone and saw multiple other people getting the same phone calls and when we asked him for a case number I immediately looked that up as well and there was no case against her (using Md judicial case search) especially with that number and when we confronted him with the finding of no case found and about how others are getting these same calls he raised his voice and said ok fine mam we will put the Lean on your house and garnish you bank account and then hung up, so my mom called back and said how do I pay this amount to you guys and he explained how and then when my mom said ok I’l [BBB Scam Type: Phishing] [Business: Klinberg Law Firm IMPERSONATOR Date] [Lo

Allen McGregor, (Caller ID was Austin Nathan) Said he needed to speak to a owner or controller of the company. Wanting to know if we approved a $38,000. payment. Put him on hold said I would try and contact a owner. I'm the controller and knew this was a scam. We do not use Bank of America for our business accounts, only for financing equipment. When I got back on the phone he hung up. He sounded as if he was calling from inside a closet with his hand covering his mouth.

The "TryVelor" website was professional, captivating and intentional, offering an entire system for baking superior sourdough bread using items and techniques imported from a small French family company. It took a couple of months to arrive after I had opened a fraud report with Bank of America. Here is what I found: A heating pad without UL certification, without instructions and a flyer in Chinese; a bread bag lined in plastic, not wax as advertised; a simple glass jar, but no sourdough starter or directions; a dangerously and cheaply-made bread knife. Nothing was labeled food safe or country of origin. There was no information for returning the items. I will have to throw everything away because I would consider every item unsafe. I am a highly educated woman, but after years of avoiding scams I was taken in by this one. The website seems to be shut down but it most likely will reemerge.

On March 18, 2026, I was at the ASD Convention show in Las Vegas and was approached by a representative from Rock West Medical, a company he stated thar owned a spa in Las Vegas. He proceeded to market an item called Avologi Totale, that provided red light therapy. When I proceeded to ask more questions about the item, he provided me with this website https://avologi.com/product/eneo-totale/ and stated it normally costs $11,950 and he could sell it to us for $1800 a piece and then it went down to $1500/ unit. I mentioned to him that I do not need the product and I needed to think about it as if i did purchase it would be for my company. He stated that if I did not purchase today he would refuse to sell it to me at that price later as it was only allowed for the convention. He never mentioned any return policy when asked and stated the product has a lifetime warranty. He then proceeded to force the purchase and asked for me to personally Zelle the money; This seemed suspicious, so I only Zelled him one dollar to which the bank cancelled the transaction and when I spoke to the bank on 4/3/2026, they stated they flagged it as fraudulent and did not allow the transaction from the business account. My friend who was also there was attempting to purchase, her bank stated fraudulent charge 3 times and then did not allow her to purchase with her credit card. He then provided a square terminal to run the charge of $1545 and with the understanding that Bank of America would protect me from fraudulent charges, I presented the card. The representative stated that the item would be delivered by the end of the week and proceed to provide his cell phone information for contact. On Monday 3/23/2026, I texted with the rep and asked about the order . He stated that he did not have any information at the time. I proceeded to let him know to cancel the order and to refund the money. Mr. Cohen responded the ne [BBB Scam Type: Counterfeit Product] [Business: ROCK WEST MEDICAL] [Location:

The merchant Clarkson New York (clarkson-fashion) engaged in deceptive practices by misrepresenting their origin, shipping extremely low-quality clothing products from China that are far different from the photos on their social media store order site, and refusing a 30-day refund policy, according to reports. Following a Bank of America chargeback, the merchant is illegally attempting to collect funds with a new emailed invoice and threatening collections, defying both their stated policies and consumer protection standards. They do not provide any clear, affordable return shipping label or instructions, despite their buy online landing site assurance that they offer full refunds within 30 days, and their very misleading name "Clarkson New York". They insist the customer must mail the returned goods at his/her expense to their overseas central warehouse, almost certainly in China, and the customer would have to pay exorbitant shipping fees and customs duties. But again they refuse to even provide a shipping label to facilitate the return process. [BBB Scam Type: Counterfeit Product] [Business: Clarkson New York] [Location: VA, USA - 22314]
