Description
The Scott’s have banked through Wells Fargo for roughly 30 years in January. They say they’ve been loyal customers and haven’t had any problems with scammers or fraud claims until this year.
In January hackers tried to drain almost $50,000 from the Scott's multiple Wells Fargo bank accounts. The couple says the bank will not refund their money.
“Once they hacked our email name and our password, they were able to go directly in to our account and start working on it,” said Ron Scott.
He takes us back to January 9, when he got a call from his wife Jan. She asked him if he transferred $19,000 out of their bank account.
