Scam verdict · Educational pattern check
Yes — scam
Is it a scam if someone wants to “refund” me through Cash App or Zelle?
Yes. In this con, a “support agent” or buyer claims a refund — or an accidental overpayment — is coming through Cash App or Zelle, then walks you through the app until you've sent money yourself, often as the “difference” you're told to return. These apps treat transfers like cash: instant and effectively irreversible. No legitimate company issues refunds by coaching you through a payment app, and no stranger accidentally sends you thousands.
