I don't think Zelle's issues are new.

We mostly use Cash App. I use Zelle so infrequently, I wouldn't know if there are problems with it. One thing I found out years ago is that if you're using Zelle with one financial institution, you cannot use it with another. My primary bank actually sent me a notice stating I could not use Zelle with them for that reason.

zelle scam - Bing
Lots of savvy paychecks are getting cashed and not going to Bank accounts. Would you
a $15 an hour hamburger flipper put up with saving interest rates now a day? Pay your
rent in cash, reciept, only the heat bill and you pay it with a money order. Our renter pays
cash. Sometimes a couple days late but she is unwed mother and working her buttock off.
I forget the last Book of Flags $$ but it was in double digit costs. Ones in their 20's don't
go to USPS office anymore.
Heck a Bag of blank checks costs $35 --- Everyone forced to pay with Apps and Q-Codes. More scams alarms.
It's been years since I saw anyone paying for anything with a check at any store or anywhere for that matter.
- Scammers use Zelle because transactions are quick and hard to track.
- Beware of urgent payment requests, text messages containing links, and unsolicited overpayments.
- Scammers may ask for your Zelle security code to authorize a payment to themselves.
- Criminals are using Zelle to drain victims' bank accounts.
- Banks and credit unions are not (responsible) for money lost from --- ( P2P ) --- scams. OH BOY!

Zelle is great. I use it to mostly pay workers such as painters and handymen. But….the information must be absolutely correct. There is no recourse if you miss typed something and it matches an unintended recipient’s account…there is no retrieval. .

No problems here with Zelle. I use it only in certain situations, but it works like a charm if you're careful. Especially useful for sending funds to family members who live out of state - MUCH safer than sending a check!
