Woman Finds Bank Account Hacked, With $27k Extra (Switched)

Oct 5th 2009 5:24PM Yeah something similar happened to me thanks to Wells Fargo's poor security processes.

Back in August 2007, I had two valid Money Gram Money Orders that I deposited on a Friday for $2000. Over the weekend my account dipped below $2000 after a weekend camping trip. (No access to phone signal out in the NW Woods. )

So when I checked my account on Monday via Phone Banking, I was on the phone with a bank teller and in the middle of this my account was 'frozen' due to security being suspicious of 'fraudulent activity'.

When I was transferred to security I was told that they were not able to verify funds, my account was frozen, they were holding my money and if I didnt clear up the issue Wells Fargo would press criminal charges against me. AND KEEP MY MONEY! And they indicated that they werent responsible for their computers not working, IT WAS MY FAULT.

Wow! Nice! I had no gas, no money, and all my money was tied up because their computers didnt synch properly with Money Gram.

Then after I raised holy hell with the Money Order place, they got on the phone and it still took Hell's Fargo 72 hours to reinstate my funds.

And apparently this is all legal under Wa State law(effing lobbyists). They could have waited 5 days and it all would have been legal....

Be very careful with who you bank with... Well's Fargo gets a big "thumbs down" from me.

May 11th 2009 10:51AM How does anyone take the'fun' out of Rock & Roll? That's one of the most ridiculous things Ive ever heard...No one in Seattle wanted to be called 'grunge', they just wanted to play music...AIC, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, Mudhoney, Candlebox....maybe Brandon should just play music and shut his yap..wait that would require a buttplug because he's talking out his ass
