RDTrains Posted August 7, 2019 Report Share Posted August 7, 2019 This is getting ridiculous. I go online to look at my checking account and it is overdrawn by almost $500. Then I see my checking is down 5K. Had this problem 3 weeks ago with funds taken out of checking and changed debit card. Now this bullshit. Total missing is $6700. Heading to bank now. Fuck me.

sugardaddy Posted August 7, 2019 Report Share Posted August 7, 2019 So sorry to hear this RD. What happened last time.. did you get your money back? Geez... scary stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDTrains Posted August 7, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2019 Yes got money back. And both withdrawals look like they are scheduled which means the bank can issue a stop payment. But why aren’t I being alerted to these huge transactions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RDTrains Posted August 7, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2019 Check this out. Two small credit transactions were made on 8/5 for 15 cents and 36 cents in my savings. Then a withdrawal for 51 cents was made later that day. Then today they went for the kill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know how when you legitimately verify accounts with third parties, this is one way. I have done it a few dozen times over the years. The names on those transactions are important for the investigation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeman Posted August 9, 2019 Report Share Posted August 9, 2019 Those micro deposits are the clue, they stole it right before that, check where you used it the day or 2 before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDTrains Posted August 9, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2019 Since I check every day I caught the withdrawals before the money was taken so the bank just puts a stop payment on them. Money was returned today so now I visit the bank in the morning to get a new account. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you notice the micro transactions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you notice the micro transactions?I noticed the transactions on the 7th two days after. I’m sure the name associated with them is fake. The only thing I use the debit card for is ATM withdrawals and very infrequently. I use credit cards for everything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeman Posted August 9, 2019 Report Share Posted August 9, 2019 Strange, I guess it's possible there's a skimmer on the ATM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
