Capital Payment Systems/Tritec Phone Fraudulent check processing Ripoff El Paso Texas
I checked my bank account online on 08/20/07 to find that there was a check for $249 written to CPS/Tritec Phone that was paid on 7/13/07.
Ironically, the check does not have my signature or authorization but has printed in the signature area 'This draft preauthorized by (my name)'. Also, the address on the check is from a check that I have not lived at or used in over 7 years. I called the number on the check 877-277-7045 and reached a young lady named Rebecca who gave me an 800# to contact the company that processed the charge, "Tritec Phone" The number was no longer in service. I called back Rebecca at the 877 # and she asked for my address so that she could mail me a reimbursment. I declined giving her my address and she suggested that I could contact my bank and file a fraudulent check report. I have contacted my bank and am awaiting the results of their investigation so my money will hopefully be returned to me.
Obviously, this scam has found an old check with my name and account # on it and has fraudulently run this check stealing $249 from my bank account. .
I have read of several other people being scammed with this exact scenario. I will be looking for a class action lawsuit once my the bank has completed its fraud investigation and my money has been returned. I have no idea who this company is or how they got a hold of this old check, however, I will continue to work until this scam is caught and stopped.

$249 fraudulently charged to my checking accoutn by Capital Payment Systems was credited back to me by Bank Of America. I had to of course file a claim for the money and close my checking account that I have had for twenty some odd years, but B of A was very helpful and, as I said, credited me back the money immediately.
