Scam Description
I made the mistake of believing this check was real and it was not. I work at so I didn’t have time to go to the bank.i made a mobile deposit. So the first day I did not receive any funds, 2nd day $250 and the next day the rest. Monday morning come and the check was return ! I am like what ? So I called Golden 1 Credit union and the 1st to Representatives stated that they could not look up the check number because I did not have an account. So when I called again I just asked them to look up the check number, Lord behold she said she can’t find the check and that’s when I knew that the check was more than likely a scam. The lady even stated that herself well she let it slip out and I don’t think she meant to let her slip out. So I called Navy Federal my primary Bank to see what I could do they said it was nothing they could do because I’ve already spent the money. I feel like more should have been done about the situation I did not know that it was a scam check I was currently looking for a check in the mail from loan service that owed me money and I thought that check was it but turns out it wasn’t. So now I can’t my account is in the negative and I get paid on Thursday. And I won’t have any money and I have no one to help me figure out how can I get this wiped from my account. I am the one that got scam not Navy Federal I am but no one seems to care. It’s not right that hard-working people get scammed like this so I wish and hope that BBB CAN COME UP WITH A SOLUTION FOR ME BECAUSE MY OWN BANK IS NOT TRYING TO HELP ME AND GOLDEN 1 CREDIT UNION ISN’T GIVING ME ANSWERS EITHER. HELP ME PLEASE !!!
