My iPhone had a text box pop up that I had a $348 charge on my ApplePay account on hold pending verification. The phone number was 833-371-8335. I tried the cancel button on the box and nothing happened. I couldn't find a way around it, so I pressed the call button to get rid of the box so I could use my phone. I hung up before it was answered. I received a call back from 813-331-5832 I have never set up ApplePay. I told David that. David had a strong accent. He said that the account was set up 2 months ago. He said there were three charges pending, one of which was questioned because it is an adult website subscription for $348. Another charge was for $600 for a Mac Book, and the last charge was for $4,000 for Apple cell phones and watches. I told him the ApplePay account was not mine and to cancel it. He said he could only put a freeze on it, and that the charges would post to the bank accounts within 48 hours. I asked what bank. He said there were multiple banks attached and he can only see the first number of the card used. The banks were Wells Fargo, Chase, Navy Federal Credit Union, TD Bank, PNC Bank, Triust Bank, Citi Bank, US Bank, Capitol One Bank, and American Express National Bank. I refused to give him any information, other than I verified my name. I asked him where the products were shipped to and the address he gave me was 49 Araracida Court, Albany, NY 12205. When I hung up on me, he texted me asking me to call him back on his direct line 813-331-5832. [BBB Scam Type: Phishing] [Business: Apple Pay / impostor] [Location: Umatilla, OR, USA - 97882]

A person by the name of "Taylor" called after midnight from a NFCU phone number identifying himself as a rep from the fraud department stating someone made two transactions in Tampa, FL that alerted as fraudulent. He presented me with all my information (ssn, last 4 of bank card/acct, email) without me disclosing any info up front. He manipulated me to do some activities in my account in which he said was ways to ensure transactions were blocked and return of my money. Long story short, this person was a scammer and the bank refused to give my money back because this imposter had me go into my account and do transactions so that made me a participant. I truly thought I was speaking to a rep from their company so yes I unknowingly followed instructions to give my money over to a stranger (sidenote: I called the phone number he called me from and it was directly to NFCU). I reported this immediately to the bank and they still refused to return the money I lost even though the banks are protected with insurance. So please be aware!!!!!!

I received a call from my “bank” claiming they noticed potential fraudulent charges to my account as well as someone attempting to access my account in Texas. They read me the questionable charges at which I expressed they were not my charges and that I was not located in Texas. They asked me to confirm with pins being sent through the NFCU texts and read it to them. (I did not realize the scammers were already hacked into my NFCU account), They gave me my home address to confirm the shipment of my new card and thanked me for being a member since the year I signed up (information that I never gave them). They completely locked me out of my account and claimed they needed to secure it. While doing so, I was receiving emails and texts about needing to reset my password through NFCU but was unable to do so because my “account was locked.” At this time they wanted to confirm that I could receive texts messages about any fraudulent charges and asked me to send $3,800 through Apple Pay. After multiple claims that I was not comfortable doing so they told me this was NFCU procedure to get everything secure. That because my account (verbally told me my account number) did not have the funds it would decline. They then had moved all my money from my other accounts so that when I hit send it did in fact go through.

On 24 November, 2025 I posted on Nextdoor group in our area asking for help finding who can do home renovation. Multiple people responded to the post including Jose Elias. He did a home visit on 26 November and discussed with my wife as i am active duty stationed in Japan. While he was at my house, I spoke to him and my wife and we agreed on scope of work and payment. The scope of work included new cabinets, stove/range and microwave, Flooring for the kitchen and downstair, downstairs and upstairs bathroom, paint the kitchen and vanity light replacements. He requested a payment of $19,994 on 29 November to commence work. I transferred the amount from my Navy federal credit union account to his Navy federal credit account # 7111044090. On 04 December, he called again and requested another payment assuring me that the work will be completed in the two week time frame we initially agreed on. I transferred another $14,995.
