A woman reported that more than $6,000 was taken from her bank account after she gave information to a scammer.
The victim said that she received a call last week from someone who she believed to be an employee of Apple. The caller told the victim that she needed to get gift cards in order to take care of fraudulent activity on her account.
The woman did not purchase the gift cards, but did get a call back from the suspect a few days later asking for debit and credit card information. The woman gave the information to the caller.
The woman was notified by her bank that a total of $6,050 that had been taken out of her account within the past week, according to the Greene County Sheriff’s Department.
