Ugh that’s so terrible. He was being so confusing and frustrating. I hate stuff like that. I’m so sorry that happened

Nella Marquez

swift's little head bobbing in the back is so cute

HeyBroItsBrad

ALWAY hang up and call the bank

Devyn

Watching you get scammed in real time after already hearing about it on stream made my heart actually break lol i'm so sorry that happened to you

Robert Fisher

I would like to say I also greatly enjoy the link going to extraemily. Didn't click it but I did hover over it to see if you were throwing a rick roll in there

Robert Fisher

Hope your bank is able to lock everything down in time and make charge backs for what you may have lost. Holidays are stressful enough without people trying to virtually pick your pocket.

Redcoat

I love that in the description it talks about how you should never click a link and then right after there is a link to Prezoh's channel.

Jimmaayyy

I never know whether calls are real anymore. Honestly I'd just freeze my card and go into my nearest bank in person the next day.

Darren Hertenstein

I was cringing through that whole call. I'm sorry that happened to y'all QT. Hope it all gets sorted and recovered. ❤️

Okta

Pretty sure the movie the Orphan is based on the evil dwarf feet girl 😂

Aidan C

Prezoh makes me cry, evil dwarf and Casey Anthony feet of the week back to back

Grace

oof that call was hard to watch im so sorry QT! It sucks that your bank calls you similarly to legit check purchases so it makes sense you're less likely to think scam + the wine 😩 In case anyone wants a little social script, if I'm ever suspicious about a call I'll always say "I'm kinda busy right now, can I call you back in 5?" If they get defensive it's 100% a scam but regardless I hang up and immediately call the bank/business myself and say "Hey, I just received a call about [reason], just wondering if that was you or a scam?" I think only once had it been a real call and they weren't mad at me at all for double checking. Oh and if they say "Sure, you can call us back on this number [scam number]" I either just say thanks and don't take it or say "No worries, I've got your number right here."

Not CEOs!

Part of my job is educating our client's employees on scams via a variety of methods, and coaching people towards better cybersecurity practices. This was text book bad actor tactics, and their goal is to frustrate and confuse you until you ignore your gut instinct that something is wrong. It sucks and feels awful when you fall for one. You are definitely not stupid, I've seen cybersecurity professionals and CEOs and folks with tons of training fall for scams. So, your in good company at least

J

How much did they take??

Alexa Palma

It’s ok QT. It can happen to the best of us AND you were tipsy. I thought immediately that she should hang up and call her bank directly. It’s ok that you thought of that at the end.

Sophia

There’s no worse time to get a scam call than when you’re drunk and don’t have the best judgement. Hope everything works out!😭

Slip

Nobody asks for 2fa codes. It’s the whole idea of a 2fa code is that you never share it and nobody will ever call or text you for it. Also the link click is wild😂 much love hope it sorts itself out🖤

Lindsey

Tbh, I feel like there’s no way it’s not🤣

Lindsey

Also, I vote for another Prezoh episode because this shit was hilarious

Lindsey

WHAT AN EPISODE!? It’s so crazy how many scams there are nowadays that at Starbucks where I work, we are training to spot social engineering scams! Sorry this happened to you, QT! Glad y’all recorded this tho because it sure was content!

Cat

This is extra painful to watch after she’s already been on Kitboga’s scam stream 😭😭 but also dropped a follow on Prezoh based on his laugh alone 🖤 had me cackling

Rah

Well it’s not cool you got scammed…but at least you got content??? 😢

BS

What got me was the 2fa section. She was so close to getting out.

Mitch Mitcherson

im thinking about when I’m 60 and not frosty, ill get scammed for sure

Mitch Mitcherson

“it’s not normal to barp this much”

Jacob

aw man, it sucks that QT had the correct intuition that the call was sus but the scammer was able to make her doubt herself

Nivaldo Farias

this is probably within top 10 winaboutit episodes. The rollercoaster of emotions in this ep was A RIDE.

Sam

"do you think he hates me?? owo" QT STOP BEING SO CUTE

RathOX

This was so good!

Jaded Kills

It also sounds like a voice changer

Jaded Kills

“Give me a second to speak” in that rude ass tone was the 5th red flag. Scammers get sassy sooo fast bc they have no job to protect. No one that works for chase would speak like that. Especially without QT being rude first. Also most banks will be fine with hanging up and having you call the number on the back of the card to verify you’re talking to the real bank.

H

It's obvious Fan Fan and Nmplol right?

K

Ahhhhhhhh, I could feel the "I know that this is not right but it feels very socially uncomfortable to be too pushy about it" energy coming off of Prezoh. You're not dumb for getting tricked QT, you were impaired and scammers are good manipulators.

ChubbyHobo

its both funny and stressful watching this. Its like real life lol. hope it works out! Prezoh was great lol

Carmen Ramirez

when she said she’ll click on the link i died inside too

FrostWolf

Oh shit, tell your bank right away. Didn't Prezoh say over and over this was a scam?

Jason Keeler

this stressed me out so much lol. hope it works out for you

sarahFYI

the title was not clickbait

spilt milk

somehow I knew that the messiest podcast was going to be with prezoh

Charles Batman

and so anyone with Chase knows, they will usually verify your identity through a notification on the app

Olising

This is so scary to watch how scams are so advanced, so much 'verification' to make you think it's legitimate. I am very tech savvy and had guided and dealt with scammers for my grandmother (RIP) multiple times over the last 3 years, but I feel like I would fall for this too.

Tomnick69

Prezoh was so on it!

Tomnick69

Watching QT get scammed is so hard to watch 😥😓

kron

Casey Anthony would be a FIRE Wine About It guest

Charles Batman

I was already surprised that she answered the call, but then she clicked the link too

Owen Frost

I got scammed almost the same exact way about 6 months ago shit sucks

delicatheresa

feel like i was watching george bush being told that the first plane hit

Michael

Fr tho hope it all works out

Michael

The identity theft content we didn't know we needed

sotto.voce

"she had a baby. its okay looking" bro

James DePersico

Welp. I was going to say that it was fun seeing a tipsy Wine About It again, even if it was without Maya. Then disaster struck.

AJ Witt

Wow I hope that the scammer wasn't able to fully get in and get your stuff! They're getting scary good, I don't EVER do anything with any bank info unless I call the official number back and make sure that it wasn't them calling.

Elijah

That scam call must be so stressful! Scam calls aren’t like that where I am, so I totally thought it was real for a bit and just assumed that’s how there were in the US! RIP in peace. Great podcast though, at least it might be a learning moment for young listeners or something

Michael Kiwan

Such a good episode

Anastasia

lol the cake decorating stream makes so much more sense now!!

inowb

When I saw Lorde in concert, she mentioned how she never expected fans to connect with Liability so much. It's such a good song.

Glitch

on the bright side, QT still hasn't been scammed as much as lud...

77katz77

literally didn't think about that

Dillon Hoffpauir

Sorrows and prayers

Jimothy

That's insane that after all that she still clicked the link, that sucks

Pax Man

"How do I know this isn't a scam?" Oh no she was so close

Becca

“Editor, edit this all out” is my favorite thing to hear during a podcast

Jan Chlumecký

this was the craziest episode ever, the tone switch was scary

Ed

her being drunk makes the scam way more understandable

Jasmine Fears

oh no its worse than I thought. Prezoh even warned her lol

Jose Marin

What a shitshow but amazing episode lol word to the wise, never answer scammers questions, hang up and call the company directly to verify it’s real

Avery

Hoping that Chase has the mechanisms in place to protect your money! Still a pain to change accounts or banks. It's hard enough when I had to replace a card can't imagine having to replace my entire bank account
