Check cashing Fraud or scam Washington
CFPB ComplaintI have a small business. A former associate fraudulently obtained a check made out & printed payable to my business, ( the payee ). This person Hand wrote their personal name on the check and cashed/deposited it at Bank of America. They also endorsed this check with their signature. Effectively this person stole this check for $20000.00. In USD which was payable to my business. Bank of America, upon filing a Demand letter to have these funds returned to the appropriate Payee, ( My Business ) is quoting state Law for Washington State for which they are not governed by, in using the statute RCW : Revised Code of Washington : - Conversion of Instrument. This is an inappropriate and irrelevant quoting of regulatory statute. This is apparently being used as an Excuse for the purpose of not returning the fraudulently cashed funds into their bank. The Bank of America is governed by the OCC and not by State codes further. This check was printed with my business legal entity Name which is primary in the Payee endorsement of check payment instruments. It is fraudulent to cash or deposit a check to an account to any other account not associated with the printed intended Payee account, particularly without any primary payee endorsements or notifications. I request the CFP make notification to Bank of America this transaction was fraudulently cashed or deposited and payment to the appropriately intended Payee must be made immediately. Further, I request any and all legal notification of the OCC governance and appropriate banking or check fraud notifications be made to both myself and bank of America Fraud department Via : - - - - -, - -, - - - -, - - -, Phone Number - Address : - -, - - -, -, WA, -
