On 8-22-18 My friend Mikala was on twitter searching for a sugar daddy to help pay some of her school expeneses. Something I wish she hadn't done. Anyhow on this day she was texting with a man named James Taylor. His twitter acct @JamesTaylorr4, agreed to send her 2000.00. However he said he had to have her acccount login info so he could mobile deposit said check. At the time of the deposit I was a joint owner on the account. WHen I say the deposit I questioned my friend who said she had sold a bunch of her stuff. I knew she was lying. On 8-23-18 I went to the bank to see if they could provide me a copy of the check. they did and I new it from the get go it was fake. I had been in banking for almost 25 years. Anyhow my friend was leaving town for a music festival and I could not reach her. So I had my name removed from the account to protect my accounts at that bank.
on 8-23-18 Anthony demanded she send back 500.00 thrice in his words. She said no. He threatened to report her to the FBI if she did not. She is 18 she was very scared. SO she used Zelle and sent back 500.00 to anthonycorralejo49@gmail .com. She questioned him if this was legal and he assured her it was. SHe also spent an additional 700 at this fistival she was at. She is very overdrawn and at risk for losing her chance to go to college as she has no account her financial aid can be deposited to.
My friend has sent me many of the screen shots of the texts. This man is evil and needs to stop. I also want him to pay her back. She spent money she thought was valid. She had no intention of defrauding anyone. When I showed her a copy of the check she said had she seen the check she would not have accepted t. Yes this is a learning experience but people like this need to be stopped. He is a criminal.
