Can I get a refund after a Zelle scam?
Reviewed answer
Report it to your bank immediately; reimbursement depends on what happened.
- In the US, contact the bank or credit union offering your Zelle service through its official app or fraud number.
- Explain whether you sent the payment yourself or someone else initiated it. Include any impersonation, stolen login, or shared-code details.
- Ask for a fraud investigation, possible reversal or reimbursement, and a case number. Save the payment record and messages.

Report now, even if told a completed payment cannot be canceled. Cancellation and fraud reimbursement are different questions.
