Gary Mce This person passed TWO counterfeit checks using my name and address, one for $4100 and the other for $4900. Since I am recovering from being a victim of bigamy and previous identity theft and fraud, it goes without saying that this is an outrage!!! It has messed up a joint credit card account that I have with my father and also my bank account that I just opened last year to get child support. ripoff Atlanta Georgia

This individual claims to be an accountant from Atlanta, Georgia. All I have is an email address, and a cellphone #. He was working with someone in Great Britain. He claimed to be working for Benarld Down but it would appear Mr. Dowd was as much a victim as I was. $4100 and $4900 counterfeit checks were sent using MY name to both my Citi Credit Card company for my account (which has since been closed) and the $4900 check was MAILED directly to my bank here in Upstate New York that I had just recently opened. The attempt at forging my signature was pathetic.

Since I just opened my account and was in the habit of showing photo ID and my signature they knew immediately it wasn't my handwriting. With the credit card company however, it's a joint account with my father who is 76 yrs old and has had one stroke. Being a single mother of two girls age 7 months and 13 yrs. I have too much to lose to become involved in any sort of illegal activities. Consequently, I want to do everything possible to bring this individual to justice. He ruined both me and Mr. Down financially and furthermore destroyed any change of our having a personal relationship beyond that of friendship.
