Andy Cohen tells how fraudsters stole large amounts of money from his account after 'unwittingly' giving them access in bank scam


Andy Cohen shared more details about the alarming experience in an interview with DailyMail.com Tuesday, recounting how he managed to get duped by very convincing scammers.

The CNN New Year's Eve host previously revealed that he received an email from an imposter that contained a fraudulent link that directed him to a page where he was asked to sign in with his details - which effectively gave scammers access to his account. A recently DailyMail.com report revealed a staggering 21 million people were duped into fake cryptocurrency schemes and other cons this past year, with a survey showing most Americans are worried about becoming the next victim of one. Scammers use many cruel techniques to part people of their money — by pretending to represent a charity, a debt collector, or even a relative or colleague in a tight spot who needs an emergency cash transfer.
