Re: Truist account hacked for 42k
Cautionary tale. In March when I was about to pay income tax, for which I had left money in my SunTrust account following sale of rental property, I logged into my Truist account.

Truist had just frozen all SunTrust and BBT accounts as they merged.

As soon as I could.log in, I noticed 42k missing, labelled as a personal wire to the Pentagon!!! Because of course everyone wants to contribute to the Pentagon??!??

So I went to the bank office. Looked different. Giant signs everywhere with happy joggers and mixtos. Also brochures.no white people on any literature.

I signed up to speak to a banker. Long wait. Met two people trying to cancel their accounts.

Finally got a "banker", bored millennial latino, who was uninterested in the theft. He told me I could wait two hours for him to contact " corporate ", or wait for me to contact him.which I did. He had nothing to add, except he had filed a report and it may take a week to hear back.

Went to the local police. They were great! Immediately the detective division filed a subpoena for the wire transfer. They also filed an FBI report on my behalf. Money refunded within 3 days, Immediately have reason to believe that's the only reason I got money back.

The detective strongly recommended I move my money somewhere else.which I tried to do. However, Truist would not allow it. I could only open a new account with them. Which I did, but I drain it every week.

Then I called Schwab to alert them I would need checks from them and be transferring funds there. They had heard lots of similar stories about Truist, same with local police.

Went to the Truist website. They promised lots of diversity on their new board. So exciting!!??!!

You are quite welcome. Since you read it, you know the local police fraud unit are the best hope!

Well, I managed to read the ENTIRE first post from this page. I’ll never do business there.
