User Donavan Rose (@thedonavanrose) posted a story of being scammed through an email from the online financial platform, Chime, and then not being able to dispute the clearly fraudulent charges with the financial company.
The self-identified pop culture enthusiast stitched his clip to another video by TikToker Steph. In her video, Step claims that she thought she was paying for an apartment she found on Facebook, but was then scammed out of thousands of dollars that she was unable to dispute with Chime.
On Oct. 24, Donavan shared a similar story to the platform. “Fuck Chime because the exact same thing just happened to me,” he says as he cuts up his Chime card on camera.

The TikToker says that he received an email that appeared to be from Chime in September, saying that he had won a giveaway. After he provided his information in order to claim the giveaway, Donavan says he realized the email was a scam and immediately contacted Chime.
He says the fintech company reassured him that his information was secure, but soon after, his account was hacked three times. Luckily, none of Donavan’s money was taken, and Chime again assured him, “you are fine, this is not going to happen again.”
However, a month…
