A small business owner's account was emptied after she received a call from someone claiming to be her bank.
This scam didn't start overseas. Someone walked into Hyeon-Jin Kwon's acupuncture business, went into her office while she was with a client and rifled through her wallet.“They managed to take a couple of credit cards, debit cards, but not my whole purse ran up about $2,300 between Walgreens and Walmart that day,” Kwon said.
That was in September. Kwon still does not have access to her money.“Oh, it was devastating. I think this is probably one of the hardest things I've experienced in my life. And not knowing if rent can get paid, you know, my creditors, my bill collectors, and how do I even stay afloat?” Kwon worried.
