I was the victim of fraud. But I thought if I used my bank to verify a check before I drew funds it would protect me. I deposited a check into my atm went to the bank twice asked if the check had cleared. A vice president offered to call me when it did a few days letter I get call the check had cleared.
Because it took so long to clear the person who frauded me said he lost his client because he was a broker and I entrusted my bank to protect me. He later sent me fake postal money orders and I went to the bank and asked to be verified before. The teller told me they were good and cashed them. The check was fake the money orders were fake.
I am out 11k I entrusted my family's funds twice thought I was being smart by in trusting my bank now the bank said screw you. I would have never drawn funds without the banks ok. I don't know what to do that was a bulk of my savings. No one from the bank has called or done anything. They did not even tell me the first check was fake. I checked my account on-line. The bank took 11k out of my account with out my knowledge or ok. Wachovia Bank has the worst security. A
