I Had Money Stolen From My Bank Account Today


Misty Shadow

Just two hours ago, I was looking at my bank statement and noticed that a fraudulent transfer of $15,000 had been made today. I contacted my bank immediately and learned that this was likely the result of someone finding out my account number. I immediately requested for my bank account to be frozen and started a new one that will hopefully be available soon. Because I made a report right away while the transfer had just happened and was still being processed, I could get my money back by disputing the fraud. This is absolutely horrible though how someone was able to do this, insane how this happened after everything I just went through two weeks ago with having to change all my passwords after my e-mail got leaked.

Holy cow, that must have been very desperate, fortunately everything went well in the end, let's hope it doesn't happen again! Whoever did this should be recognized and punished so it won't do the same to someone else! :eww:

That's awful... :sunny: I'm glad to hear you'll be getting the money back, though – hopefully whoever did it will be caught soon.

Wow, that's a lot of money. :blink: I'm glad it got resolved.

Once somebody got a hold of my credit card number. Nothing happened but I had to close my bank account and open a new one to be safe.
