Woman concerned about pay app

I was tricked into sending money through an app, but my bank won’t dispute the charge because I “authorized” it. Is there any way to get my money back?

Unfortunately, this is one of the hardest types of fraud to reverse, but “hard” doesn’t mean “impossible”.

Woman tried to pay with cash at store

I tried to pay with cash at a store and they actually refused it. Isn't that illegal?

Sure, everyone is tapping and swiping to pay these days-and that's great. But sometimes, some of us still like to use actual cold, hard cash. So how on earth can a store not accept it? It's legal tender, so it must be illegal to refuse it, right?
