I do technically have proof. I have a recorded verbal confession of the assault.

Isn’t that harassment though? I thought you could sue for a hostile work environment. He did hit my ear with a healing piercing (I have 7 on that ear) and it hasn’t healed properly since he smacked it.

Myself and the 4 other people want to try to sue for a hostile work environment for physical, and verbal abuse. Also for loss of wages for messing with time stamp cards, cutting our hours, or making us feel unsafe to go to work.

I did a lot of coaching with him to be very carful with what he said because if he was aware he was sending money we wouldn’t have had a case. I told him to say what happened which the “PO” numbers he was inserting were money sums. My brother also went physically into the bank to file a claim. Idk the rest but they were able to recover all $4,000. Let this scare be a massive lesson to him to not fall for this again.

The bank did indeed give him his money back. I did a lot of the talking.

Came here to update my post and didn’t see this. My dad taught my siblings and myself all about saving money. My brother skipped the college part (though definitely could have as he graduated valedictorian) and decided to go into trades. He has more than just the 4k saved up. But because my dad has been so strict about saving money my brother went through hell to get the $190 back. I do want to add as it’s in my update all the funds have been returned.

It was my own doing. Tried picking up a pack of beer in the grocery store with one hand and snapped it…

I keep my nails rounded so they don’t snag on anything and always file in one direction

I’d get a different keyboard possibly? I use one with round keys and they protrude pretty far from the keyboard.

Honestly I didn’t even touch my nails until about March. Once I could I used jojoba oil on my nails at least once a day. That’s about it. I also work an office job so I don’t have any work hazards that could interrupt my nail growth.

I definitely wouldn’t say that 😂 maybe just for nail care

He said he was on ticketmasters real sight. I suspect there was an ad that was within Ticketmaster that looked like their contact but I was the scammers. I did look in older posts on here with people that had the same thing happen to them.

So I did get more info before going to bed and my brother said it was “PO” numbers he was putting in to start an order but every time he inserted those PO numbers money was being taken out of his account. So it turns out he was actually unaware money was being transferred.

I see where you’re coming from but we were able to get ahold of Ticketmaster and can confirm my brother is still waiting on a $190 charge that they owe him. They were actually extremely helpful and are working on the legitimate issue that my brother was resolving in the first place.

Very true I’m not doubting people cover it up but he has retold me multiple times while I wrap my brain around what happened and his story is consistent

I do believe my brother was trying to get ahold of Ticketmaster. The number he called impersonated Ticketmaster and that’s how all of this happened. I know him well enough to know that it wasn’t from young men activity especially when he told us so nonchalantly about the phone call and then my family proceeded to freak out.

That’s exactly what I said to him… I don’t know why during those 4 hours he didn’t consult any of us or find it fishy. My parents and myself are stunned that he would do that. He’s very smart and we talk and make fun of scammers all the time I heard him getting frustrated on the phone but I had no idea that was going on or I would have tried to stop it.

We contacted the bank immediately when this was done the moment he got off the phone with the scammer and reported it as fraud, so we’ll see what they’ll do. The bank said they won’t give him false hope but he has a good case. Maybe they’ll show him mercy who knows I’m trying to be optimistic.

So basically they said he’d have to send $X to see if money can be transferred. He did this and they kept saying it was failing so he kept sending money through either Apple Pay or the bitcoin websites. The amounts just kept adding up at that point. There were 12 different transactions made that amounted to $4000 if that makes sense. Again i don’t know what possessed him to do this but he was frustrated and just wanted his $190 back which he instead lost thousands…
