P.E.I. Woman Loses $9,800 in Bitcoin Scam After Being Duped by Fake Bank Employee
A woman on Prince Edward Island lost $9,800 in a cryptocurrency scam after a man claiming to be from TD bank asked her to help with an investigation. The victim believes the bank should have done more to prevent the loss.
The scammer posed as a TD employee and convinced the woman to send him Bitcoin to aid in the investigation. He eventually disappeared with the funds, leaving the victim feeling frustrated and angry towards the bank.
The bank maintains that it is not responsible for the loss, but the victim believes this stance shows that banks do not care about their customers' well-being.
