Schwab, crypto, alleged fraud and an elderly couple's $18.5M loss
In July of this year, Lawrence Liu saw a pop-up warning appear on his computer telling him his Schwab accounts were under attack.
Liu was provided with a phone number ostensibly for a Schwab employee who could help him protect his assets. The scammer advised Liu to move his and his wife's assets to other institutions for safekeeping.
