I apologize if this is duplicate report--the first one doesn't appear to have been filed correctly.
At this time, I see two other identical reports at Ripoff Report, one from Illinois and the other from Ohio.
Just like the other victims, two checks were "written" against my checking account, each for $100. The first was dated 2/28/07, the second 5/1/07. They were processed through Bank of America.
The 2/28 check cleared my account on Thursday, 6/7, and the second cleared on 6/8. I did not have sufficient funds to cover either check, so I learned of this when I received a letter from my bank reporting the insufficient funds. I called the bank to learn that these checks were written to Intabill, each with memo on the check stating "monthly auto payment."
Because these checks hit my account on Thursday and Friday, I did not receive the information from my bank until Saturday, and am unable to clear this up until Monday, which I assume with involve me closing my bank account.
We will all be hearing about this fraudulent activity in the news by Monday, I'm sure.
