Their daughter, a banking professional, insists TD Bank should have flagged the suspicious transfers — but the bank says they can’t reverse the transactions since the account holders authorized them. With emergency scams already costing Canadians over $800,000 this year — and likely much more since most victims never report — this case is a chilling reminder: never send money based on a phone call — always verify with a direct, trusted contact.
