I happened to check my checking account balance by phone & realized it was lower than it should be. So i got on my account online & quickly noticed a check for $110. Had been cashed the day before.
I knew I had not written such a check so I called the book-keeping dept. At my bank to inquire about the check. I was told it was check #001 made out to J.Y.F.C. & that on the back it was stamped "deposit only" with no business name. However there was an 800# number on the check.
I called the number repeatedly & only got a voicemail for "trident Solutions". No one would respond to numerous requests for call-back.
Eventually someone answered my call & told me they process payments for many companies & were able to tell me only that I must have ordered something on AOL, but they could not tell what company it was or what I supposedly had ordered. However, I knew that I had not ordered anything.
They promised to send me paperwork to fill out to dispute the charge, but said it could take 21 business days to get it.
I was outraged & did an internet search on J.F.Y.C. I saw 17 identical cases on usacomplaints.com, where this same company had cashed unauthorized $110. Checks (all #001).
So i went to my bank & signed an affadavit of non-authorization. They are supposed to put the money back in my account.
