A few days ago, I received $30 into Apple Pay from somebody I don’t know. They alerted me to the error and asked by that I send the money back. I am being very cautious just in case this is a new kind of scam. Is there any reason I shouldn’t send the money? Can this person gain any of my personal financial information if I send the $30 back?
That’s Apple Cash, not Apple Pay. Almost certainly a scam.
Apple Cash is a service that’s administered by Green Dot Bank. Contact an Apple Cash Specialist at Green Dot Bank by calling (877)-233-8552 or by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE
For future reference, you might consider turning AppleCash’s Auto Accept “off.”
I can’t see how it could be a scam, but I too am interested in other member’s “takes “
You ARE conducting a financial transaction w/ an unknown individual … but “that ship has already sailed.”
Edit: Do what Jeff suggested.
No, reposting is not advised. It may confuse other community members.😀😀
Thanks. Do I need to repost this under Apple Cash?
Thanks. I did call and has all been resolved. I appreciate the tip about setting receive to manual. I did not know there were two options there.
I was accidentally paid by somebody I don’t know who wants me to pay the money back. Is this legit?
