Question:
My husband had a check stolen from his check book and all of the sudden their was a cash advance that came in and then it was gone again. In this process they took a payment and he closed the checking account. We have switched banks but the problem who ever stole this check knew all of his information and now we are recieveing harrassing e-mails from them. We have already explained to them that it was a case of stolen identity and that we were not going to pay for something that we did not do. MTE Financial told us that it was placed in our checkin account and they would find our new one and debit it from there. Is there any thing we can do about this??
Answer:
Not sure I completely understand. I believe you are sayings someone took a check and went and took an advance out against this check at one of those check cashing places?
If this is the case, go there and ask them to see the video of the person who took that loan out. This should prove you are not them.
They can NOT go and withdraw monies from your new account, the check they have is based off your old one. They can not submit the old check to another one. They are simply trying to scare you. You need to contact the local law enforcment agency and report this to them. Save all these emails you are receiving, tell them you are filing a police report.
These places have video cameras, contact police let them to the investigation.
Though this is scary, and stressful. It will all work out.
Good Luck
