The check cashing company advertises on monster.com and their website really looked legit. I received my first check from them on April 20th. The plan was to deposit the check into my bank account and then receive wiring instructions. They supposedly connect Americans that are working overseas with their bank accounts that are in the US.
I followed the instructions and the day after my deposit, I wired the funds minus transfer fee and 5% commission to a company called spectrtravel in Moscow, Russia.in the meantime. I saw a report regarding Checkbank on usacomplaints.com. I e-mailed the company and they actually responded by saying it was from their competitors at fethard.Biz trying to hurt their business.
On April 26th I went to Checkbank.Biz to see if the next check was on its way yet, and I was denied access. Since I work at a bank, I decided to check my account and saw that their initial check was being returned. This put me at a huge negative in my checking account.
I have contacted the better business bureau in Buffalo, NY and I am considering a lawsuit. So if anyone else out there that are victims of this scam please let me know if you want to join in on a lawsuit against these thieves.
