Checking account Problems caused by my funds being low Washington

I am a military member of navy federal credit union. I was looking for a part time job, and was contacted via email on a at home job offer. I was mailed a check for suppliessupplies I deposited the check in my account at the local navy federal, and was given the direction to send a - to the supplier. Not realizing it was a scam due to my hopefulness and being excited about bringing in some extra cash. Once I realized that it may have been a scam I contacted navy federal. They informede there was nothing they could do till the checked cleared as fraudulent. So security locked my account, and told me to come back in a week and they would see what they could do. A week goes by and my account goes - $2800.00. The check was indeed fraudulent. I went to the bank and asked if I could make some type of payment arrangement because I could not afford paying that amount back. They told me no, I 'm responsible for the charges and there is nothing they can do to help. I spoke with a - - bank and they said navy federal


tellers are horribly trained to look for these fraud checks. So now I am behind on all my bills on my navy federal account which includes my car loan personal loans and credit card and line of credit. I was already financially struggling, now I 'm in a black hole. Navy federal will not do anything to help me. Now with no money because I did not receive my last check because it went to the negative balance, no money for next check, behind in all my bills including rent with no help from anyone. How is it that navy federal has no protection for there military members and families. How is it that the people that serve your country can end up homeless and hungry, and in even more debt because of a scam, and their bank not care. I understand my fault, but being in the military I forgot about the scumbags in the world that prey on innocent people looking for a better chance in life.
