What are the steps to prevent someone from transferring funds into my bank account?

To block someone from transferring money to your account, you have a few options depending on the platform or financial institution you are using. Here are some general steps you can take:

  1. Contact your bank or financial institution: Reach out to your bank or financial institution and inform them that you want to block someone from transferring money to your account. They will guide you through the specific process and requirements for blocking incoming transfers from that individual or entity [1].

  2. Use payment apps or platforms: If you are using a payment app or platform like Zelle or Cash App, you may have the option to block someone directly within the app. Here's how you can do it on Zelle and Cash App:

    • Zelle: Open the Zelle app, go to your activity tab, find the person's name in your activity feed, scroll to the bottom of their profile, and select the "Block" option [2].

    • Cash App: Open the Cash App, go to the Activity tab, find the person's name in your activity feed, scroll to the bottom of their profile, and select the "Block" option. To unblock someone, follow the same steps and select "Unblock" [3].

Remember, the specific steps may vary depending on the platform or financial institution you are using. It's always best to reach out to your bank or refer to the app's support documentation for detailed instructions.
