5. I was told I would receive a number of texts with codes that I would need to repeat to verify my account.

6. On XX/XX/2022 I contacted US Bank because the process was different than other times when my card had been compromised. I was especially concerned because I saw there were 4 cash advances from my credit card ending in XXXX from 2 different banks. The total amount was {$840.00} ( {$800.00} plus {$45.00} in transaction fees ).

7. I was told there was no calls made from US Bank on XX/XX/2022. I then reported my card had been compromised.

9. I was told it would be investigated.

10. On XX/XX/2022 I received a letter stating the transactions were authorized and linked to the credit card ending in XXXX. The transactions were made using expanded access. 
11. On XX/XX/2022 I called US Bank at XXXX and spoke with XXXX. I explained the situation and told him that the transactions were fraudulent. He explained how the determination was made.

I did not receive a call from US Bank by close of business on Tuesday XX/XX/2022 XXXX. XXXX I sent this letter with attachments to US Bank XXXX XXXX and called Bank Card Services . I explained the situation to Clinton ( supervisor ) that I had not received a call back from the claims processor as requested. He requested a call back from a claims processor supervisor to me within 24-48 hours.

14. On XX/XX/2022 I received a call back from the XXXX XXXX supervisor. The situation was reviewed. The transactions were not considered fraud but a possible scam. My next step is to file a police report. The police can subpoena video footage from US Bank to determine if I or another authorized user made the transactions. The completed police report should be faxed to XXXX. 
15. I contacted the XXXX Police Department. XXXX XXXX said that he would email me a Victim of Fraud/Identity Theft Checklist and referred me to XXXX. Due to lack of a suspect there was nothing more the police could do.
