Got scammed out of $500 through chime and zelle
It's a long story. But I was trying to sell something on Facebook marketplace and the persons money wasn't going through to my account.
Zelle said I needed a business account to accept their money. I very stupidly followed along with their instructions to try and get the persons money back to them and Zelle said to do that, they needed the $500 deposit and then they'd send the remainder back to me and the other person once my account was made a business account.
So I (very stupidly, I know) gave it to them and they said they needed $500 more
TL:DR: I'm a moron and paid zelle $500 that I won't get back. Please help, I need that to make rent 😭
