Want to make sure everybody is everybody is not only up to date, but also I want to document this case just so everybody knows how to handle scammers IF they get scammed.
Here's what i posted in the other thread a few days ago.
Little update:
I contacted Moneypak first thing in the morning. Pretty much just said that number must have been stolen. They asked simple questions like:
1. Did it look like the moneypak had been tampered with when you got it?
2. Did the cashier look suspicious?
3. Did you give this away to a friend?
I had to fax them over the receipt as well. Was told I would hear back from them in 5 business days UGGGGGGGGGH.
I actually got a call from some odd five digit number yesterday. It was a gentleman from the greendot security team. Had a few questions to me:
- Did I give the code to anybody?
- Was it tampered with?
- Then more penetrating questions like: How long have I been on paypal? what do I use it for? What was I using this card for? Have i used moneypaks before? What were the specifc uses of moneypak?
He was semi-agressive, but I get it, they've got a business to run. So I gave him respect. I faxed (using web-based fax) out the greendot card and receipt again. He let me know they would get back to me in five days.
Going to relax it out for the weekend and try not to worry about it.
