Brazilian car content creator Tabata was stuck in traffic when a thief suddenly attacked her and stole her iPhone. The entire thing happened in just one second.
It took Tabata a few moments to process what had happened before she broke down crying.
But the strangest part wasn't the phone being stolen.
The thieves somehow managed to make a bank transfer from her account, even though they supposedly didn't know her password, have access to her Face ID, or know her bank transfer password.

She later reported the incident to the police. who were able to recover the iPhone.

That's what I'd tell the cops if I wanted to make some money disappear too

>who were able to recover the iPhone.

of course they were because part of the arrangement with the "robbers" was her getting it back

I mean she didn't lose any money since the bank will get her money back. Insurance will take car of the car damage. But the attack is traumatizing.

How ridiculous is to mention the phone model in a post where this is not relevant.

How brainwashed someone have to be??

The bank won't get her money back. There are case after case of people.havj g their bank accounts compromised through their cards and the money is gone. Banks can't/won't do shit.

Her insurance deductible is likely higher than the cost of her window, if so she will need to pay out of pocket for the windows as well.

Same. Some influencer trying to get followers, and money. We are doomed

I’ve been fighting with capital one for a year now about a stolen credit card that was used, and they refuse to help me in anyway.

As long as they report their phone/card stolen banks can lock the account.

What? Are you saying this was a set-up? By her?

Is Brazil a country where kidnapping happens all the time? I feel like that country is the Wild West
