Under the Fair Debt collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I have the right to request validation of the debt you say I owe you. I am requesting proof that I am indeed the party you are asking to pay this debt, and there is some contractual obligation that is binding on me to pay this debt.

I sent a certified letter on XX/XX/2023 ( see as attached ) and I have documentation it was received ( see attached document ), but as of XX/XX/2023 there has still not been any response.

Company: Chime Financial Inc

Complaint narrative:
Hi, My name is XXXX and I have filed multiple unsuccessful disputes with Chime. On XXXX, XXXX 2023 my account was fraudulently access from an unknown location. Once I receive the emails stating my phone never had been changed as well as someone logged in. I immediately called Chime. At that point, I was informed a transaction of {$2500.00} was made to someone by the name of XXXX XXXX, whom I have never done business or came in contact with. I did the necessary protocol to gain access to my account by providing my ID and additional documentation that was needed. My phone number had been changed so I had to update my email as well as my phone number with Chime. Now three disputes later, my claim in constantly being denied although it shows this transaction was not made from my device, my location, or using and my phone number. The chime claim IDs are XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. I will also be attaching the documents I received showing my account was fraudulent accessed on that date and time of this transaction. Ive requested documents from chime to justify why my claims are being denied and I am being told my account have been accessed earlier that day, so therefore, that makes the transaction valid. Im very disappointed in Chime as a merchant because this is clearly not a valid transaction and whoever this person is must have looked into my account and saw I had funds.

Company: FIFTH THIRD FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: IN

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX XXXX, I was a victim of a XXXX scam. I had put up my daughter 's bed to sell on XXXX XXXX. Someone contacted me about it and wanted to buy it. They asked if I used XXXX, and I said I think I have/can. I knew it was linked with my accounts with my bank and I could go through my banking app to receive the money. I gave the person my email address to send be the money. I got an email from " XXXX '' stating I have a pending payment of {$400.00} ( the price I was selling the bed for ), but they noticed my account was limited and not a business account so I couldn't be credited. They stated I would need to ask the sender to send an additional {$300.00} so it can be changed and then I would be credited the {$700.00}. I have never used XXXX and it was through my bank, so I thought, ok, I'll do that. Well, then I received a second email from " XXXX '' stating that the {$700.00} is now waiting to be deposited into my account, but I was required to send the {$300.00} back to the buyer so that I would get my {$400.00} and for the buyer 's security. So I sent the {$300.00}, again thinking " This must be ok because it is going through my bank app ''. Then I received a third email from " XXXX '' stating they received my {$300.00}, but they noticed my account wasn't fully upgraded so I needed to send an additional {$500.00} for my account to be fully credited. They let me know that this was the last stage and once I did that, they would give me the {$1200.00} back. Again, not questioning it ( like I should have ), I sent them the {$500.00}. I then yet received a forth email from " XXXX '' stating I needed to send in {$700.00} for some I.M.F. certificate. At this point XXXX wouldn't let me send more than {$200.00}, so I sent {$200.00} through XXXX and the additional {$500.00} through XXXX. I then received a fifth email from " XXXX '' asking for an additional {$1000.00} because they deducted {$1000.00} from the buyer 's account and was putting it in my account ( which they never really stated why ) and that I was required to refund the buyer back the {$1000.00}. At this point I started to get suspicious and stated to the buyer that I was going to check this out with my bank in the morning. The whole time I was sending the money and getting the emails, the buyer was sending me messages stating he got the money and was trying to show me proof that he was sending money. After I stated I was going to get ahold of my bank, I never heard from him again. I was able to get the {$500.00} back from XXXX, but my bank has denied my fraud claim stating they were unable to get the money back from the XXXX recipient. Of course they didn't, it was a scam!
