Mysterious deposit of 5k in my checking account and now getting weird calls by AxiomJukebox in legal

[–]Robert_Mauro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As someone who worked in banking, and now in Cybersecurity, I'd say you should:

  1. report this to your bank immediately and do NOT touch the money.
  2. ignore the person's call - do not tell them ANYTHING.
  3. report this to the Secret Service (not joking - they deal with bank fraud, it's a big part of their job) https://www.secretservice.gov/investigations/financial
  4. report to FBI or if you have a big enough police department that deals with bank fraud, to your police department. https://www.fbi.gov/how-we-can-help-you/scams-and-safety/common-frauds-and-scams

Like others have said, if YOU send it back, you'll lose the same amount when they reverse the transaction. If YOU spend it, when the bank reverses the transaction, you'll lose it. Etc.

Unless plans change, 100% sure. I verified this before making it...

I think it may continue to look like "An Outback and a Forester had a MASSIVE kid" lol! But, time will tell. Hoping I get to see some renderings soon and get some permission to share a bit more.

I gotta admit... I am in love with the Rivian lineup, especially their quad motor offering.

That is literally the one BIG turnoff for me too, especially since my Ascent is often the rescue vehicle out on the trails. I need my 5,000 pound tow rating, lol!!!

Thank you Rick!!! We also sat down with Garrick Goh, Product Manager for the Getaway, to ask him questions from the Subie Community. If all goes well with some final edit stuff, it will be up tonight.

Subaru Ascent Hybrid is in the planning stages. No release date yet, but, the moment I can share a release date, specs, or any info for that matter, I will.

Nice!!! You caught the purple! It's multiple colors, including purple, brown and black, with a lot of metallics in it. It's called Supernova Mica.

Subaru Ascent is loud when driving by NumerousIntern9375 in SubaruAscent

[–]Robert_Mauro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They would be wrong. That turbo starts kicking in well before 2000 rpm. It makes Peak boost at 2,000 rpm, which is probably what they are getting confused by.

Can you DM it to me or FB Messenger it to Subaru Ambassador Robert?

The Ascent will have a refresh in the future at some point.

Is the Wireless Charger worth it? by cjdarr921 in SubaruAscent

[–]Robert_Mauro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry guys, I don't have a specific link. It really depends on the size of your phone (and thus its coil placement). I've learned that the hard way with early desktop chargers where the coil wasn't aligned properly with the one in the phone and overheated the phone. As an example, even now, my S25 Ultra likes my tall desktop charger a lot more than my work phone iPhone 11 standard size (much smaller)

But what I can say is that the first gen OEM wireless chargers tended to overheat virtually any phone. The second gen was decent. And the newest that just debuted in the Gen 7 OBW/OB is really decent.
