Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
IN Oct of 2008 my roommate stole all my monies out of my checking account by forging checks of mine. I filled out all the proper affidavit's Bank of America asked me to and my roommate was arrested and charged with 9 felonies. He is now being prosecuted and I was cleared of any "scam." by the Bank.

Even though the defendant is being prosecuted and pled guilty, the Bank refuses to give me ANY of my monies back including the thousands of dollars they incurred on me, I was evicted due to having no mopney to pauy my rent and caused to become broke as well as now being thousands in debt now to my credit card companies because of there refusal to pay my monies back as I have no money after being laid off as well.

The defendant stole my life and Bank Of America allowed him to do it with no signatory cards on file for him. It is now July and they still refuse to give me a dime of my money back and I cant afford a lawyer. I cant afford to get by anymore.

SOMETHING does not add up, aside from the date of the incident. On one hand you state your room mate forged your name on the checks, on the other hand you state that the bank had no signature cards of your room mate on file. If your room mate forged your name on the checks, no addl. signature cards were needed. Do you mean that the bank did not compare signatures? Check vs. signature cards? Give me a break! The bank does not check signatures unless there is a cause to be suspicious. Furthermore, the bank usually refunds any monies lost due to fraud if the account holder (victim) is willing to prosecute. The bank would have issued you a lette, indicating why they refused to refund you your losses. What did this letter say??? If everything is the way you say it is, why did you not ask the DA to assist you with the bank? Something does not add up here. HWH - Buffalo

Not Against The Bank

Michelle, your action should not be against the bank. They are not responsible for the theft of money from your bank. Your roomate is the one who stole the money from your account. The fact it was done fraudulently has nothing to do with the bank. Unless you can prove the bank was negligent, the bank is not entitled to give you anything. As you said, "The defendant stole my life...." , not the bank.
