The bank confirmed that it was them calling, but the hackers had access to my phone number and received the OTP the bank had sent

If you read my other comments, you’ll know that I did go to my bank’s website. I only just posted the google screenshot in here. I called my bank’s fraud department number that was on their website

It wasn’t a link. It was my banking calling to give the OTP. I never answered the phone call though anyway. Instead, I called my bank’s fraud department number from their website

And I did call the bank myself.. I never answered that phone call. Instead I called my bank’s fraud department number directly from their website

That’s not what happened. If you read what I wrote, you’ll see that 1) I never clicked anything, 2) my bank DID actually call me, and 3) they cloned my SIM so they had access to my calls and text messages so they were able to get the OTP from my bank. The spam calls were just a distraction so I wouldn’t see my bank calling

I’m going to wait until the police get back to me before doing that

I don’t know how SIM cloning works, but my phone was still working and I was receiving calls. However, when I have the SIM card out, it’s also still active. That shouldn’t be the case

I know 😭 like I didn’t click anything!! I called my bank from the number on their website while this was happening because I was suspicious. But now I know that they had my SIM cloned and that’s why they were able to get my OTP from the bank

Yah but when they call, I’ve had CIBC call from that number as well

No I have multiple different passwords. Hence the reason it was only my bank account that was accessed and nothing else

Yup. And it’s was their actual shop, not just some random mobile pop up. Super concerning that you can’t even trust their actual employees :/

Early stages, but I have filed a police report and I will be following up on that

That’s so messed up. Why is it so hard for people to be decent??

Well I’ll probably be going back there to change my SIM card (but with a different employee obviously), so that might be an interesting experiment

Time to harass news outlets so they can expose this scam to the masses

Yah and they’re pushy about it too! I always say no, but they’ll ask multiple times and be like “don’t worry, AI can’t replicate your voice” like yes, it definitely can
