This is a long story but I don’t want to miss anything So I sent my sister $570 for a bathroom remodel payment for the company doing the work on Sunday at 5pm eastern like i’ve Done during the whole project. She gets an email NOT a normal Notification and thinks nothing of it. MONDAY she ask when will the funds be available and I say 2-3 days which doesn’t work for her so I call to cancel my payment and will try CashApp. The young man Rick says in order to do this I must go to a store and buy a google play card? Random right? We talk and sis says waiting is fine for her so when Rick calls back I say don’t worry about it just let it process. He tells me the transaction is STUCK and that I must get the google play card or the funds are LOST, ok I’ll buy a $10 GC but ohhhhh no I must put at least $100 on the card and he needs the security code on the back. SHOCKED I buy the card give Rick the code. He tells me it’s not working?!?! And I take a picture of the card and send it to him. His boss gets on the phone didn’t catch his name and the boss says I need to go BACK to the store and buy another gift card but this time for $500!?! Then the funds will be transferred to sis account and for the trouble I’ll get $30 in my PayPal account. I was LIVID and said I don’t have $500 he tells “just call a friend and ask to borrow it” I’m sorry WHO ARE YOU??? He goes onto say if I do t do this I am out $670. How? What did I do wrong? Why did no one notify me about the issue? This is outrageous I can’t even see straight
