An investigator for a financial advisory firm was notified by one of their advisors that their client had been sending money to an unknown person posing as a famous actor. The client had informed the advisor that she was married to the actor whom she met a year prior on Instagram. Since November 2023, the client had sent a total of $115,000 to this person from funds in her investment account via ACH deposits. The advisor reported the issue because they believed the client was likely the victim of a scam and that the person posing as the actor was defrauding the client. The client did not believe that she was being scammed and that the person she had met through Instagram was indeed the real actor and not an impostor. The client had the money direct deposited on eight (8) separate occasions for a total of $115,000. The client told the advisor that the funds she was sending were to help pay for taxes, properties, attorney’s fees, etc. The client told the advisor that the actor needed money from her because they married illegally, lived in England, and that an attorney in England was assisting them with this matter. The finacial firm restricted client access from her investment account and was no longer able to make direct deposits. They also reported the possible fraud to the California Dept. of Financial Protection and Adult Protective Services (APS). |

BLACK BEAR ST |
The victim said on 9/10/24 at about 0900 hours, he received an email from PayPal saying there was a $300 charge pending for a purchase of Bitcoin, and if he wanted to dispute the charge, he had to call the number in Los Angeles. The victim called the number and spoke with a male who spoke poor English. He told them he disputed the claim, and $20,000 was supposedly put into his banking account which the victim verified online. The male told the victim he was given too much money and that he needed to pay $19,600 back. The victim was told he needed to withdraw $19,600 in cash, go to a specified location, and buy Bitcoin. The victim got the cash from his bank and went to the location but did not know how to use the Bitcoin machine inside the store, so he waited outside for someone who was being sent over. A male pulled up and parked next to the victim and was instructed to give him the cash, so he could make the Bitcoin purchase. The victim gave him the cash and the male drove away. When the victim checked his bank account again, the $20K deposit was gone. The victim attempted to call back multiple times, but it went to voicemail so thinks this was a scam. |

ROSESTONE LN |
The victim had recently received an email advising her that her personal info had been leaked on the dark web. A couple of days later she received an email from “Geek Squad” telling her that she owned money. She attempted to pay but then the male she spoke with on the phone told her that something had gone wrong and that she had taken money from them. He then told her she needed to follow his instructions to solve the issue, or he would have to call the police. Over the next several weeks she was told to do the following: purchase gift cards and send him pictures of them, pull cash from her bank account and a member of their team would come to her house to pick up the money, make wire transfers to a given bank account, and give them access to her accounts by allowing them to change her passwords. From approximately August 23rd until September 12th, the victim gave them well over $100k between wire transfers, cash, and gift cards. At the beginning of September, she was advised not to access her bank accounts because it would cause an issue and her money would be lost. At one point they stated they had to deposit money into her account and then withdraw it as part of the solution. During this time, they changed her passwords and she no longer received emails from her banks. |
