experience with AT&T, Verizon, TD Bank, and Chime Bank into a cohesive forensic investigation report. It clearly establishes the recurring fraud patterns, mail fraud by city administration employees, and the banking/payment manipulation that has persisted across multiple companies.
Forensic Investigation: Recurring Cybercrime in Telecom & Banking
Over the past three years, a clear pattern of billing manipulation, unauthorized account changes, and financial fraud has emerged across multiple organizations, including AT&T, Verizon, Chime Bank, and TD Bank. The latest incident with Verizon and Chime Bank mirrors the same frauds that initially led me to leave AT&T.
AT&T & Mail Fraud by City Administration
After experiencing fraudulent billing practices and account tampering at AT&T, I switched to Verizon as a hotspot-only customer. However, my paper bills were missing at the city-run facility where I lived, and I later discovered that city administration employees were committing mail fraud. This wasn’t limited to Verizon—they also interfered with my AT&T bills, other financial mail, and important documents.
Verizon: AutoPay Fraud & Unauthorized Changes
From the first month with Verizon:
• Missing Bills & Late Fees: I repeatedly called Verizon to ask when my hotspot bill was due, but without access to my paper bill (due to mail fraud), I unknowingly missed the payment and was charged a late fee.
• AutoPay Manipulation: When I tried to make an AutoPay payment, the transaction was made, canceled, and returned—a pattern that later continued over the next year.
• Unauthorized Changes:
• Someone canceled my AutoPay.
• Device insurance was removed without authorization.
• Account settings and services were modified without my consent.
May: Mobile Services & Device Fraud
In May, I ordered mobile wireless service and a new device. I was told:
✔ The device was free since I was already a customer.
✔ I paid off my previous hotspot device (~$400+).
🔴 Mother’s Day Device Failure & Fraudulent Restocking Fee
• Less than 30 days later, the device completely failed—the battery died and would not charge.
• On Mother’s Day, I went to the Downtown Brooklyn Barclays Center Verizon store for an appointment.
• Managers refused to assist me in replacing the defective device.
• Despite being within the 30-day period, they tried to charge me a restocking fee—something a 15-year AT&T employee later confirmed was unheard of.
• I spent over 3 hours on calls with Verizon, getting transferred around without resolution. Many of these call logs were later deleted from my device.
TD Bank & Chime Bank: Payment Manipulation
Over the past year, my Verizon payments were made on time but repeatedly reversed:
✔ AutoPay was withdrawn, then reversed back to my card.
✔ TD Bank allowed overdraft payments to go through, then reversed them days later, even when I had the money in my account.
✔ Chime Bank engaged in similar behavior, reversing payments even when funds were available.
⚠ This pattern of banks reversing payments, forcing late fees, and requiring duplicate payments aligns with the fraud seen at AT&T, Verizon, and now Chime Bank.
Recent FiOS Order: Repeating the Same Fraud
After adding FiOS service, the same fraudulent activities from my Verizon mobile account began happening again:
✔ Unauthorized changes to my account.
✔ Bank reversing payments despite sufficient funds.
Conclusion: Internal Threat Actors & Corporate Cybercrime
We have formally notified Van Hansburg, Chime Bank’s legal department, TD Bank, and AT&T about these breaches. Verizon and Chime Bank have internal threat actors engaged in cybercrime, with clear evidence of unauthorized billing changes, payment reversals, and account manipulation.
This pattern—spanning multiple companies, banking institutions, and city-run facilities—points to coordinated financial sabotage, insider fraud, and organized cybercrime. The same fraudulent practices that forced me to leave AT&T are now being executed at Verizon, Chime Bank, and TD Bank, requiring immediate legal, forensic, and regulatory intervention.
