The Ones Above And This One Cole Bright Wayword Lincoln. I'm a victim of a scam and identity theft in the amount of $12,251.75. Las Vegas, Nevada, Belle Vernon, Pennsylvnia, Russia And Online

I put a cat on Petfinder.com. I was contacted by Wayword Lincoln, who wanted to buy the cat. I was sent three $1000 money orders through UPS to cash and keep $420 for myself and the cat, then send the rest to his shipper in Russia.

I went to the bank and they cashed them so I though it was ok and sent the money by Western Union to Russia. Then I received two more UPS envelopes, one with five $850.35 money orders and one with a $5000 check. I told him it was to much trouble but he sounded like an old man on the phone and I wanted to help. He told me to keep $1000 for myself and to send more to his shipper in Russia and the rest to two people in the states for other goods he was receiving. If I didn't then he wouldn't be able to pick up the cat because he wanted to get everything all at once. I trusted my bank and again they cashed everything so I still thought everything was alright.

After I sent everything the bank teller who cashed everything called and said that they were all bad, so I went straight to the police and filed a report. The police Chief said that I was a victim of a scam and identity theft because one of the people in the states I sent the money to was allowed by Western Union to use my name, without my ID, to send it somewhere else.

I have all this information in paper form, the emails, UPS envelopes, Western Union receipts and the police have the check and money orders. The bank is saying that I am liable, that they don't have insurance to cover this and they are saying that I have to pay $12,251.75. I am low income and do not have the means to pay this.

$3000 of the money bounced back to Western Union when they allowed them to falsely use my name and I am retrieving that myself for the bank because the police haven't tried to yet.

I need help and have no idea what to do about the bank. I thought that the government and banks had programs to help victims in these circumstances.
