Speaker 1 (00:00):
One eight hundred do uy away now offering free remote
consultations by phone or video conference for any criminal offense.
Trust Brook, Jeffrey and Jose's friends with a free remote
consultation from Bradley Johnson Lawyers. Visit one eight hundred douy
away dot com or call eight.

Speaker 2 (00:14):
Hundred do you wy away.

Speaker 3 (00:16):
It is time for your phone tap.

Speaker 2 (00:17):
And at this point we've done thousands of these calls,
and most of the time when we reveal it's a joke,
the person will laugh. Sometimes they'll get upset or just
be surprised that radio still exists. But we've never had
a reaction quite like today.

Speaker 3 (00:37):
And brooks Cy is a big hitt because she poses
as a bank representative and calls a woman to address
her recent fraud charges. It's an ending we never could
have anticipated, certainly not brook In. Your phone tap right now.

Speaker 4 (00:53):
Another Hello, Hi, I'm calling from Sapphire Visa. Is this Jane?

Speaker 3 (01:03):
Yes, this is Jane.

Speaker 4 (01:05):
Hi Jane, I'm one of the supervisors here. I was
looking into the fraudulent charge on your credit card from
last week. Yes, thank you for calling back.

Speaker 1 (01:12):
It's so hard to get hold of somebody.

Speaker 4 (01:15):
I am here for you. And I'm really sorry that
that happened. Oh, thank you. Yeah, but I have gotten
to the bottom of it.

Speaker 1 (01:22):
Oh no, oh great, what happened?

Speaker 4 (01:25):
Well, turns out they bought five thousand dollars worth of
swift coin. Swift coin, yes, not really my area of expertise,
but apparently it's Taylor Swift, theemed cryptocurrency. What that's exactly
my reaction too. Yeah, I didn't even know Taylor Swift
had a cryptocurrency. What doesn't that woman have right exactly? Anyway,

(01:50):
good news is we were able to reverse the transaction
and debit your account.

Speaker 3 (01:55):
Oh my gosh, that is such a relief.

Speaker 4 (01:58):
Thank you so much. Well, there is some bad news.

Speaker 1 (02:02):
Bad news.

Speaker 4 (02:03):
Why what since last week's purchase a swift coin was
devalued from the original five thousand dollars taken from your
account and now it's only worth nine dollars and three cents.

Speaker 3 (02:14):
So what does that mean?

Speaker 4 (02:15):
That's a great question. I'm just saying when you're wondering
how the rise and fall of swift coin affects the
world's crops, and I don't know what. I'm not really
an expert. I don't think you understand what I'm asking
I mean, what does it mean to me and my money? Well,
it means the five thousand dollars is only worth nine
dollars and three cents, so that's all we could refund you.

Speaker 3 (02:38):
Are you insane?

Speaker 4 (02:41):
The market is I'll tell you that market.

Speaker 3 (02:43):
It's crazy with this sin charge.

Speaker 1 (02:46):
They took five thousand dollars out of my account. You
have to return the five thousand dollars to my account again.

Speaker 4 (02:53):
Yes, if it was a product or service one hundred percent,
we'd be able to reimburse you the full five thousand dollars.
But it was swift coin, so we can only reimburse
you for what it's worth. No, I don't care. I've
never heard of anything like this, do you know everyone
in my life? I don't mean to interrupt you. I
think you're not looking at the positive here.

Speaker 3 (03:13):
Positive look.

Speaker 4 (03:14):
Normally we don't get anything back on these crypto things.

Speaker 3 (03:19):
Oh, but you're going to give me nine dollars this time.

Speaker 1 (03:21):
That's so nice for you.

Speaker 4 (03:23):
I feeling you might not be too happy about this.

Speaker 3 (03:27):
Oh you think you think I'm not too happy.

Speaker 4 (03:29):
Really, we do have some options for you, though.

Speaker 3 (03:33):
The only option I want is my five thousand dollars.

Speaker 1 (03:36):
Back in my account.

Speaker 4 (03:37):
I knew that that would be the case, So that's
why I spend a lot of hours investigating this for
you and a little Bertie. Are you ready for this?

Speaker 1 (03:45):
Probably not.

Speaker 4 (03:46):
A little Bertie told me that cardigrams are trending upwards.
That's the name of the CARDI b new cryptocurrency. I
got a DM about it. We could put your nine
dollars into some cardigrams and let it ride. So what
is this? What's offer?

Speaker 3 (04:00):
Bank lady?

Speaker 4 (04:02):
You're not a day trader, You're not a stockbroker. That's
why I get some hot tips. And I'm gonna tell
you you have another option. We could try putting it
into another tailor currency called bad Blood bucks. I don't
give a crap about celebrity crypto. Whatever you know we
got bad Blood is that song but super volatile though
like the life give me your name. I don't know

(04:24):
that it's a smart move, but that's what a gambles goodness.
I will give it to you right after I tell
you about Ali Coyn. It's the best choice. It's a
new cryptocurrency from your coworker Allison, who totally set you
up for this prank phone call. Wait, what we're doing
a phone tap on you and your coworker Allison set
you up. I don't know anything about your missing money.

(04:48):
What deep breath deep, So sorry, I'm so sorry.

Speaker 3 (04:55):
Don't cry, don't cry.

Speaker 4 (04:57):
It's supposed to be funny. It was supposed to make
you laugh.

Speaker 1 (05:01):
Well that's not nice to do.

Speaker 4 (05:08):
Are you all right?

Speaker 1 (05:11):
I'm calming down.

Speaker 4 (05:13):
Do you think maybe in a couple of days we
could laugh about this. You don't know. I guess it
depends on if you get your money back. Why why
I don't understand why I'm doing After this reaction, I'm
going to email Alison and ask her why she has
because now it's so terrible. Well, I'm going to talk
to her too.

Speaker 3 (05:32):
I don't understand why.

Speaker 1 (05:34):
I don't get it.

Speaker 4 (05:34):
It was supposed to be a joke to make you
laugh and lighten your mood and make you feel better. Well,
maybe you did too good a job at being a
jerky bank person or something to take that as a compliment.
And and we'll end this phone call and I'll check
up on you in a couple of days. Okay, okay, okay.
