This company suddenly sent through a "SELF MADE, " check, one in which they made up through my checking account using a previous mailing address of mine. I did not recognize a debit and was curious. Due to my bank having online access to see the actual check I definately did not recognize it. I asked my wife if she had written anything or agreed to any electronic fees of any kind and of course she had not.
When doing a search for the name of the company on the check, ENTITLEMENT PRO, it brought up sever reports such as this one. Surprisingly with others having the exact same company send checks through their accounts for the exact same amount. THIS ALARMED ME!
I immediately went to my bank in my city, filed a Fraud Investigation with them, froze my account, opened a new one that this company had no access to and then I went immediately to the Police in my city and filed a THEFT BY CHECK report or an ID THEFT report as they called it. I gave them a copy of the check, the name of the person that called me back, what they said.
This company claims to be a 3rd Party Billing company. They say they can issue a refund but they must investigate fraud before they will do so which takes 21 days. They wanted me to give them my home number, my checking account number. And I basically said that they could not have it and I was filing a FRAUD case on them today.
