Scam Description

I was scrolling on Facebook and seen an ad for rue21 knowing that they were going out of business I clicked on the ad because I said 95% off I thought it was weird when I went to go check out to the cart and all of my bank information was already filled out and I didn’t have to fill it out knowing that I don’t have any of that even saved to my phone when I went to go pay for it it said the transaction could not go through that information was incomplete I then closed out of it I called my bank to let them know that this was suspicious a couple hours later my bank then called me back stating that somebody was trying to make a purchase for $47 for some doll I had reported this to Facebook multiple times I also see other people got scammed as well and Facebook fails to take this down
