Fifth Third Bank ripoff Called my eldery grandmother and asked her for numbers at bottom of her check to deposit money she was owed Then issued two checks to themselves on her account

The scammers called my grandmother and asked her for the info at the bottom of her check. Not sure exactly what ruse was used, but I think they told her that she was owed a payment, pretended to be a bank.

Then they issued themselves two different checks on her account on 11/3/06 and 11-06/06, with two different payees. Each was for close to $400.

I found out because I recently got power of attorney over her account and am investigating fraudulent activity. Poor thing is 89 and can't tell when people are scamming her. She baarely has any money, but the scammers are after her hot and heavy on a daily basis.

One of the payees is "BNKSAFE", the other is "CPS The NCAS". The latter endorsed the back of the check with PayStream USA, the former was deposited by Capital Payment Systems to "Fifth Third Bank".

I called the numbers on the checks and was told to leave a message at the BNKSAFE number. The CPS phone number listed on the check was answered by some mumbling guy with a ghetto accent who was totally rude and obviously a scammer.

I did some research and found this article:

Also a few police reports regarding "Paystream USA" and elderly people receiving calls asking for banking info.
