SunTrust Banks, Inc. Bank account or service department,

Checking account Making/receiving payments, sending money Florida

On Sunday - - after - -, I wrote a check payable to - - in the amount of $31.00. The one was mailed to a PO Box at - Florida. Drove to the Post Office near my home and mailed the envelope. On Monday - - at - the check cleared my bank account in the fraudulent amount of $820.00 payable to a person that I have no knowledge of. My original check was completely changed, to whom it was payable to and the amount. I became aware of the fraudulent activity on - - around - - as i was checking my online account. I immediately called SunTrust Bank and reported that my original check has been misused. The representative on the phone took all the information and provided me with a case number, advised that it was going to take between 7-10 business days. Later on that same morning I went to my local police department in - - Florida and reported the incident. The officer took my statement and provided me with a police report number. That evening i contacted again SunTrust to provide them with the Police report case number. I then asked how long


me at this time. Till today - - i still have not heard anything back from the bank no e-mail or any kind of correspondence explaining the progress of my case and or any resolution, nothing at all. I currently feel as a victim of fraud not knowing what to do in order to receive back the money that was stolen from my account. The money I though it was in a safe place. I have been a customer of SunTrust for over 6-years now, I though the bank will protect me as consumer and a victim of fraud. It seems by the way they are handling the case, they are not wanting to take any kind of responsibilities, my money was given away in minutes to a thief but i now have to wait 120 days to get my money returned. Any kind of help with this matter will be appreciated.
