CONSUMER ALERT: BBB warns of new Venmo scam, Webkinz users asked to change credentials
2 First Alert
GREEN BAY, Wis.(WBAY) - Venmo users are being warned of a new message sent by scammers, which asks you to return money accidentally sent to your account.
The BBB says the scam starts with a message from someone who send you money by accident, and then asks you to send it back, and although you might think you're doing the right thing by returning it, officials say don't fall for it.
Officials say this is one of the many cons of using digital wallet apps, like Venmo, Zelle, or Apple Pay.
