I am so sorry this is happening to you...and I know how mad and frightened you are...it happened to me..........
Keep checking with your bank.and have them open another account ..in fact...if you could go there personally and have one person that you deal with....(that would check every day for you) it would be a big help. If your bank has an automatic phone system, you could check it yourself everyday...if anything was amiss - you could call this one person...and alert them. This happened to me about a week before I left for Disney a few years ago.
They did have checks printed and started cashing them. When I went to my CU they immediately gave me a new account...and after I filed a police report...they refunded the money that was taken out. They had to watch for the checks when they came in to see who they were signed by...(this person who did this was NOT the brightess crayon in the box...they had their real DL #, name and address printed on the check). Granted it was frightening....but it worked out. The only trouble I had was at Albertson's - they wouldn't accept my check for a while...evidently the person had gone to Albertsons and left some bad checks. I finally got that straightened out, but for a while didn't shop there. Now I check my account every few days....
Take a deep breath.....it's going to be okay...just cover all your bases at the bank and find someone there who will take a personal interest. They really are great people!!! Barb in Texas
