Gotta love the Citibank response. ‘We closely follow all laws’…..the first thing they do is lie in their statement. They were just found and it was proven, they did NOT follow all laws, which requires them to perform certain actions and also they are required by law to adhere to the agreement/contract with the customer. They didn’t, and arrogantly so. Citibank is scum and if you have any kind of account with them you should close it immediately. If you don’t, your loss will be your fault and you will end up fighting them to the ends of the earth to get your money back.
Nope, no Citibank accounts here. Nor any Wells Fargo accounts, nor any Bank of America accounts. We deal with a rock solid local credit union that uses a smaller regional bank, also rock solid, for their backing accounts. There are no guarantees, but that's about as safe as you can get outside of stuffing the money in a mattress which has bigger problems.
You have a good take. If the police showed up at the President of Citis house at 6 in the morning and took him in for arraignment that will get his attention.
Computer science . Banks have a legal duty to safely hold your money while paying you interest. When they allow others to steal it , they should be held accountable. A person should not feel they need to keep their money under a mattress. Not much different when leaving your vehicle overnight at a repair shop. If it is stolen while in the shop , the owner of the shop needs to reimburse you.
I am thinking exactly the same thing👍. I live in Cambodia & I would ask why Thailand?? There are thousands of barrangs live in Thailand are permanent residents. Where's the connection within the bank, there will be one for sure, they simply need to look
How the heck does a wire transfer take place without the account holder enabling it??? Inside Job? Worker who knew her logon somehow??? Just dangerous for all concerned. The Bank should help its customers with more fervor.
"The Bank should help its customers with more fervor." Banks are in business for ONE reason and ONE reason only: to make money. They don't give a shit about you nor anybody else for that matter and they most certainly don't give a shit as to HOW they make their money.
It would have to be an amazing hack to convince a bank to empty a trust fund. These are not your standard savings or cheque accounts and are supposed to be bulletproof, allowing only limited access as stated in the terms.
I am very glad to see Citibank lose this lawsuit they have done so many people wrong. Glad to see them finally be held accountable for their criminal acts.
not gonna happen. he is lucky to even get the wired money back. this is what happens when you suck corporate dick your whole life. Big business xan and will get away with everything
"grind down the other side" is absolutely their tactic. Thank you for pushing through and sharing your story. I'm sorry you had to go through that and your sister lost her home in the process.
Why would a case about a bank not following it's own consumer notification requirements even require more than one day before a judge? It should be a summary judgement. America, what a great nation to be a rich corrupt bank.
So many cases that are cut and dry yet dragged on for lawyers fees. This is not equal justice under the law because it requires money to fight. The little person dosent stand a chance against corporate lawyers!
Good! He should get even more for the extreme stress Citibank caused him & damages for the loss of his home & dragging this through the courts. There should be no question that banks & big corporations are held accountable to their customers & clients.
I'm a victim to an online scam this past week. I just wish I could get my lost funds. Would you know any professionals I can speak to about this? Any help would be much appreciated.
My husband and I was scammed twice last year, totaling losses over $550k. It was a lengthy process involving federal intervention to get our money back. We need more people like Retrievebackteam taking a stand against these criminals. Much love and support from California
Before watching the video, I thought this was one of those cases where people send money to scammers and then blame the bank for not getting it back. I'm so glad it wasn't. I'm also glad this guy was persistent.
This is what punitive damages are for. Not to reward victims but to punish the big guys from abusing the legal system. They knew they were wrong but made a business decision thinking it would be cheaper to drag it for long and make the little guy give up.
It’s things like this that are why I will NEVER bank with Shitibank. This happens all over the country to customers of this bank. I want no part of it.
@Gaby-N-Miklo it might be possible to find out but it's usually split up after it leaves the country into crypto accounts that are nearly impossible to track and the foreign governments may not be willing to help.
@@Denvermorgan2000 shouldn't they have a system in place to contact the person who is making the transfer? According to the video the law requires Citibank to inform the person transferring the money about the money of foreign taxes need to be paid. They never enforced that. No bank should just allow that much money to be wired without first contacting the person on the account to verify.
and dont link bank accounts to any outside sources.... I've been screwed so many times by paypal and cashapp and the other pay systems... its not even worth keeping your money in a bank anymore crap savings percentages. lots of hidden fees
Social engineering and data breaches are common ways to get the information. Stealing mail is a possibility, as is an inside job… although I’d think the odds of a crooked insider getting caught should be fairly high.
Look at 2:24 in Citibank's response, the reason the scammers have his information is he fell prey to a phishing attack. He provided the access to his account to the scammers and that's how they were able to wire out successfully.
Everyone should get away from a Citibank bank account. My ex wife had $50,000 taken out of her account before she died. Her brother was executor of her estate and was still trying to get the money out of that bank that was stolen. Her case was a little different in that the bank said they have a recording of her saying "yes" that allowed the bank transfer to go through to a dummy account in Michigan. I have no idea if my ex brother in law got that money back for her estate. He's not the type to put up much of a fight. Besides it wasn't his money. That's the way he feels. I just hope that in the case of this guy that the bank was made to pay all legal fees as well and reimburse the family for the house they had to sell. He shouldn't have experienced any loss in his sister's account or for the loss of that house.
Make a mistake and they charge you. They make a mistake and want to walk away. What a bank pays in interest is far less than what a borrower pays for a loan. Guess policy and procedure is not worth the ink it's printed on. Fascinating, and fortunate that they recovered theirs...
It's appalling how easily the banks will take your money but when they're at the root of the problem for why your money goes missing. They all of a sudden have a very hands-off approach.
Citibank: "I'm sorry there's nothing we can do." Him: "You aren't sorry but you will be. I'll show you that you can actually do more than you believe 😊".
This report makes me never want to use Citibank. This is a horrible situation and I feel for everyone who has been caught up in a similar situation smh
This is the same issue with their credit Cards as well. My card was used in london and Australia, places I never visited until today. Luckily I noticed the charges immediately from my sms alerts and had them reversed as those charges have not been settled yet.
Every bank customer should be assigned a code # and if the bank calls you and they dont have that code, then disconnect the call!! These banks need to step up their game
Someone in that bank had something to do with this fraud. He notified them when the first transfer took place and the6 allowed two more. This poor man lost his home over this and he should be compensated for that loss as well in addition to mental suffering.
The 2 wire transfers Shiti bank made AFTER they were notified about the fraud is inexcusable!!! Clearly they are guilty of wrong doing and deserve to pay up!
Typical bank defense strategy , "you'll have to get an attorney" . Pure brinkmanship , they're confident you'll fold first as they have deeper pockets to pay lawyers out of. They sent two more wire transfers after he had notified them of the fraud ! Making them worse than incompetent, they're practically accessories to the crime. Punitive damages should attach to all of these cases , draconian damages that are reflected in the annual dividend to shareholders are the only way to enforce due diligence on banks .
Wow Citibank, good effort on the buzzword bingo in your statement saying you follow the laws. I just about filled in my bingo card. You left out synergisticly though. But stripping down what you said I heard: "we don't let as many people get defrauded out of their money as we used to.
Their statement should read: After failing to follow our own rules and deceptively hiding our responsibility for the theft and allowing our customers to be victims to thieves.....We regret that we were caught and made to payback all those victims we abandoned. We take security seriously, lol, and plan to do better next time.
I’m just surprised that the bank had the nerve to fight this in court. How can any major bank have a case against an obvious fraudulent debit that happened without the customer’s consent
Giving him his money back is not enough! Citibank must be punished with great severity! I hope he goes after them for punitive damages and collects millions!
So, basically they work hard with robust security measures and advanced AI driven investigatory practices to make sure that the money in question stays with... the scammers... Bravo! Wonderful work!
Good work! It is about time that financial institutions have accountability for their poor security measures and lack of technical measures to track wire and crypto transfers. There is no reason why a bank cannot trace the origin and destination accounts (and their holders) of ANY type of transfers in this day and age.
Citibank: "Hello sir, we recently found an error where we've mistakenly transferred large funds into your account. We are going to expect that money returned to us." Customer: "Oh that's very unfortunate, but there's nothing I can do. I guess you're going to have to get an attorney" Citibank: "But sir, this is a simple error that you can easily correct" Customer:
Fraud and Scams are two separate things. Hacking and scams are not synonymous. This is insane. but this is a lack of overall education regarding the financial industry. They’re using all of the words into interchangeably and they are different forms of illegal activity.
Thats great news. City bank is known for not protecting their customers. This happens all the time particularly with Citibank. They constantly tell the customer that nothing can be done without even trying to help them.
