But they cash in the check.
How can a check be fraudulent and valid at the same time.

Talk about stupidity from a business. One bank I will not give any money to is that bank!

Very happy with our credit union.

~Thieves! Ugh. Didn't hear/see that he'd contacted a lawyer or filed a police report. That's a bit strange. At least they finally got their money back. ~

Wells Fargo....that explains it all! They have a very bad reputation around here.

 

[imagine]

The man wrote the check out to cash on a check from his bank but wrote it at a branch of her bank.

Writing checks out to cash is not the safest way to go.

It probably confused more than a few people.

Glad it all got straightened out.

"Wells Fargo did not explain why the check was deemed fraudulent in the first place and still cannot explain how it could take $10,000 out of Hinrich's account nearly a year ago, yet still question the validity of the check. The bank claimed it had been holding the money in a separate account all this time, which was news to Hinrich."

They took the money out almost a year ago & it took this long to make things right?! :thud:
