Right, I don’t care who the fuck you are or if you’re some kind of NHS consultant, if someone phones you. PHONES YOU! And tells you something like this, despite clear warnings from every bank and banking app you ever had not to believe them, and you believe it, I’m not going to feel sorry for you or blame your other banking app
These scams are convincing enough that countless people fall for them. Blaming them individually is not going to bring us any closer to a solution. Better fraud detection and mitigation will.
Didn’t hang up and call Amex cs using the number on the back of the card. Didn’t hang up and call Barclay’s in the same regard. Believes a number that he is given when he is called by a number that has not verified. Somehow believes that fraudulent charges on a credit card can also impact a different account, at a different bank, and that the two companies would even be in contact with one another. Moves 39k for ‘safety’. Gives the person on the phone fucking access to his debit card via a digital wallet system. Believes that uninstalling the app will make him safer.
Holy fuck, and this man presumably prescribes medication, treatments, maybe even cuts people open? With this totally sound mind, his work record must be stellar, I bet he’s only blindly listened to patients without checking their claims a few dozen times this year, and only cut people open who didn’t need it 6 times so far since January.
And he is so upset, so distressed and pearl-clutching, that he refuses to believe that he is a dumbfuck, and is trying to sue over it. And, and, lmfao, the poor bastard has missed two vacation in the last 6 months because of it. Awwww, you poor moron, whatever will you do? And he had to start working on Saturday. He is just scraping by, honest, and it’s not his fault he’s a dumbfuck, it’s the evil bank and their account that he gave a random person on the phone access to!
lmfao
E: actually, 5 months. Two vacations in 5 months. Why does someone so stupid get such luxuries?
