Thu, XX/XX/2021 XXXX XXXX  Cash Support ( XXXX ) I had notified Cash app that I could not access my account and where was my {$450.00} that was in my account and it was part of my government benefits. They acted as if they were so concerned sent me the same notice from other people like 6 times. I had answered all the questions and then some and still kept getting the same message over and over again. They sent me a response and accused me that it was my fault and therefore it was authorized. 

I am unable to access my original account and {$450.00} that was in accounted is no longer reflecting as XXXX allowed someone to access and assign account through fraud. 
2. What is the date/time and amounts for the transactions that you believe are in error? 1. Any and all transactions dated XX/XX/2021 at or around XXXX XXXX. I can not access the account as CashApp allowed unknown to gain access and complete control of account with {$450.00} in said account.
