989-200-0254

I posted an ad on Facebook Market place to sell my couch, Esther Gonzales and RR Kundu reached out to me on FB marketplace stating they were interested in purchasing the couch. Esther https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61551868845832&mibextid=wwXIfr&mibextid=wwXlfr stated her nephew RR Kundu would pick up the couch and she would zelle me $250. She stated that since she has a business account and I have a personal account she would send $500 and I would need to return $500 to verify the account in order for the $250 to be released. I received a Zelle email stating to call and verify the account. The Zelle support number I called was 1-989-200-0254 and spoke with an Agent/Mr. Thompson who then asked me to share my phone screen in which he started to to transfer money through Cash App, Paypal and through my banking accounts. I asked him why and what he was doing and he said he needed to verify the account limits in order to release the $250 funds for the couch. I then started to notice my money was being taken and realized it was scam and it was too late. Funds were also transferred through Paypal in the amount of $999 to Forever Empowered Creations and Our little Bird House , through cash app, amount exceeding $4500+.
