Complaint narrative:
Ive had Venmo for years, on XX/XX/XXXX I tried to cash my boyfriend tax refund check on my Venmo account because I had heard that they let you cash checks and he doesnt have a bank account of his own to use. It didnt let me cash his check which was fine. So he made a Venmo account of his own and cashed it on his account. Then he sent me XXXX to buy our kids some things and I used my Venmo card almost 2 days then Saturday XX/XX/XXXX afternoon they emailed me saying they froze my account but didnt say why. I asked them why multiple times, they asked for a picture of my ID so I sent that to them, even though they already have my social security number and everything else. They still did not unfreeze my account. This morning they emailed me saying my account is being permanently deleted and that they are keeping my money for loss prevention. This is my money. This is not okay. I have no idea what to do or what I can do
