    One Sip Closer - The Final Act - IBCC Bank Fraud Story

    What happens after the fraud? Not the headlines. Not the “justice served” montage. The real ending—screenshots, silence, clerk emails, fees, delays, and the slow grind of making a system move when it would rather ignore you. In this finale of One Sip Closer, Fred walks you through the moment the mask slips: a “please drop the suit” apology that turns into a full confession-by-screenshot. You’ll hear the verbatim coaching that built the pipeline—“answer the bank,” “money hits at 8,” “start transferring,” “No tf you don’t,” and the cash-out handle $Alandriah25—and you’ll feel the whiplash of forgiveness trying to show up… before anger snaps it back into place. Then comes the part nobody dramatizes: the friction. The court’s slow response. The circular instructions. The paperwork war. The motion to compel. The petty tone. The reality that bureaucracy doesn’t steal your money fast—it steals your time slow. Fred also closes the civil chapter the right way: the bank made him whole, and the civil suit is dismissed. But the criminal thread? Still in play. The record exists. The pattern exists. And the question lingers: you may not stop this kind of crime globally… but can you stop it locally? This is the final cup. And sometimes justice is only the first one. ⚠️ Note: Portions include verbatim text-message reads and voice-note excerpts.

    One Sip Closer - The Breach - ACT 2

    The pennies were just the opening act. In this episode, the breach finally shows its teeth. Fred walks step-by-step through the moment the “weird little charges” turn into a full-on hijacking of Iron Bean Coffee’s business account — and the sinking feeling that the bank isn’t nearly as panicked as he is. From ACH codes and small-print disclosures to dead-end phone trees and “there’s nothing we can do” call-center scripts, Act Two pulls you inside the mechanics of how the money actually moved, who touched it, and how easy it was for someone in a different state to reach into an Ohio roastery’s account and walk away. It’s part crime scene breakdown, part emotional autopsy: the anger, the confusion, the urge to smash your laptop, and the moment Fred decides that if nobody else is going to treat this like a real case, he will.

    Three tiny bank charges. One pissed-off coffee roaster.
