FIFTH THIRD FINANCIAL CORPORATION

I received a phone call claiming they are from the 5/3 bank fraud department. He did not verify that it was me but he did know my name. He asked me about several recent purchase's that he thought was fraud. He asked me to open my mobile app and read the current balance and see if there were any other suspected fraudulent purchase on the history. They told me to look up the number they are calling from on google to confirm they are actually calling from 5/3 bank. When I told them that I did not want to open the app, they hung up. This is the second time they called me phishing for information. [BBB Scam Type: Credit Cards] [Business: Fifth third bank] [Location: FL, USA- 33304]

The scammer contacted me by phone using fifth third banks actual 1800 number. I didn't even realize it was the scammer until we were about to hang up the phone and they said kindly have a nice day. I tried to call the bank number back but they were closed. Then a few minutes later they called me again asking for a verification code to be able to shut my account down and I hung up on them. I really thought the bank was calling because there back to back charges to door dash that I didn't make and would not be normal for my account but no it was the scammer. So they ended up stealing money and highjacking my online account luckily before that I took all of my money out of that account.
