Caller: Scammer Says from Crime Stoppers (CIB) and your name is being used under a false identity theft in California and is a crime, so pls check your bank account now to be sure no one has taken out any money! They installed TeamViewer on the phone first to 'help' get rid of the identity theft before asking to check to see if bank account is safe.
Shortly after was scammed 2 small amounts of $5 then one big one for $5000! Bank saying that they were allowed in because they downloaded a pre configured a copy of TeamViewer so they (Australian Central Credit Union) won't cover the $5k.
They stopped payment on a second attempt of money but never sent a text or email saying there was a hack on the bank account. Now the phone continues to ring from a private number as well as the above number to probably ask why they cannot monitor the account, or in other words, steal more money. Reporting this to local police but not much will probably be able to be done.
