Wells Fargo Bank Account Or Service Complaint

Wells Fargo Bank account or service department,

Other bank product/service Making/receiving payments, sending money

I had rented a holiday home in -, FL and transferred 50 % of the rental fee to the owner. As I did not want to transfer the money to - -, I asked for a bank account. I received a Wells Fargo account. After 2 months I received an email telling me I need to pay the final amount to keep the booking. This was unusual. I started some investigations and found out it was a complete fraud. The person was no real estate agent, the holiday apartment had been rented for a year, the phone no. was out of order and the management at the building in - never heard of him nor the owner. I found out where the account was located and filed a - - - with the -, NM police department. An officer informed me after weeks that Wells Fargo told her this Wells Fargo has told me that the funds went into a - - - account before they could inquire about it. Unfortunately, they have said they will not reimburse those funds to you because of this. The - police detectives told me that these people open bank accounts with false SSN 's and false driver 's licenses. The - police department has - - of these cases per day. In this case the bank did not operate appropriately and check the legitimation of the person and therefore is liable for the loss.
