Two- and one-half years ago, the Goldsberry family was robbed of over $230,000 by international computer scammers who took control remotely of a family computer and emptied several bank accounts.

This happened through 14 wire transfers to Thailand from December 16, 2020 to January 11, 2021.

During this time, the family noticed strange transactions happening and notified the national fraud department of their bank plus the local bank authorities.

To date, however, the Goldsberry family has yet to be reimbursed for their loss and they are frustrated.

Retired Ohio judge Alan Goldsberry and his financial consultant son Stuart have unsuccessfully tried various means to get reimbursement.

They contacted the local police, the local prosecutor and the FBI but have come up empty on a mechanism to get their money back.

They have attempted multiple times to get cooperation from their bank but to no avail.

They also have filed suit in federal court to get the bank to release its records. This was only partially successful.

Finally, they have turned to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) but have not heard from the FDIC for several months.

Meanwhile, they are running out of options.

Listen to their story as a warning on how this might happen to you.

If you have any suggestions on other options the Goldsberry family may have, please email them to me at hodson@ohio.edu.
