If they recovered "about $45,000 so far," that means about $450,000 was missing then, Judge De La Garza!!
$300,000 is one horse on the King Ranch.
What idiot editor wrote that headline?.......
Yep!........
“We feel the bank has eudciary responsibility,”
Does this paper even have a copy editor?
LOL!!......That’s not even a word!.........I suppose they meant fiduciary.....
Does this paper even have a copy editor?......yes, but he/she is obviously not fluent in English!.............Hablamos Espanol!.....
The bank has insurance for just this eventuality and the money should have been returned immediately.
Ping!
If you want on, or off this S. Texas/Mexico ping list, please FReepMail me.
Is "unsuspecting" the correct word here or should it be "complicit." Sounds as if some "third person's" should be facing federal money laundering charges. But this is South Texas and the money probably went to Mexico so that's alright.
My daughter found out that someone had used an unauthorized ACH draft on her business account. They hit it for $40 once to see if it would work and then started regular monthly withdrawals through Wells Fargo.
When she started tracing it back, WF said they had discovered a ‘glitch’ in their system several months ago but apparently hadn’t found all the victims.
Stragely enough they claim that there is no record of an account number to which the money was directed. She did get the money refunded.
Sounds like the banking industry needs to get some new protection and controls.
Which part?
eud·ci·ary (pronounced: "Luxury Yacht") |
adjective 1. Something to do with a bank or other financial institution. Etymology: Laurentian from "EUD", literally "WTF?" |
Florida Panhandle, where the sane people live............
What Funky and Wagnalls did that come from?.......
OOPS! Sorry, wrong thread!..............
Had an old credit card account that was “revived” to an old address. Some checks on that account were then used at several South Texas stores(that I probably couldn’t write with valid ID) for about $1,500. Corruption is rampant!
Well now, that is the King Ranch.
I had a a few thousand stolen from my account; but the bank immediately returned it.
It seems I bought gaming equipment in Tel aviv.
I, of course, asked where were my profits since the gaming industry is known to make big profits.
Are you sure? Have you reviewed all of the bank's insurance policies? What about the county treasurer? Does he or she have any liability?
and the money should have been returned immediately.
It depends. (I take it banking law is not one of your specialties).
