Consumer Narrative
On Monday morning XX/XX/2022 I returned to my car to see that it had been ransacked and my wallet was robbed. The last time my wallet was in my physical possession was XX/XX/2022. I had received messages on my phone saying that there were charges made on my card, these charges occurred while I was asleep and didnt see the messages until i woke up. I immediately talked to Ally support to let them know and made reports that all the charges that occurred on XXXX and afterwards were fraudulent. I also told them to not let any more charges through and froze my card. A couple months later they locked my account and I received a letter saying that I was responsible for the charges because it was " in the same geographical area ''. Of course it was, they had stolen my physical wallet. Now I have received a letter threatening to take me to collections for the amount these people stole. I did everything to inform them that these charges weren't me and ordered a new card the same day and still they do this. It is not legal, I am not responsible for the charges some theives made on my card as I did nothing wrong and immediately reported it to Ally. I am not even able to access the account to attach screenshots because they have locked me out.
