Consumer Narrative
On XX/XX/XXXX there were six fraudulent transactions in my Chase Safire bank account. ( See Attachment 1 ) The fraudulent transactions were made at an ATM machine, operated by the XXXX XXXX in the XXXX XXXX. I have been using the ATM at this bank for six years. Apparently, someone was able to hack into my account and made six fraudulent transactions during a short period! Chase must have realized that fraud was being committed because they sent me a message at XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, asking me whether I attempted a withdrawal of {$370.00}. When I saw the message at XXXX XXXX, I replied No. At that time, I was not aware of the five other fraudulent withdrawals. I immediately received a message from Chase saying that my atm card was closed and that I would receive a new card. ( See Attachment 2 ). On XX/XX/XXXX I noticed that in addition to {$370.00} fraudulent transaction, Chase had also credited me for the other five fraudulent charges. ( See Attachment 3 ) So, you can imagine how shocked I was on XX/XX/XXXX when I looked at my account online and discovered that all the fraudulent charges had been re-applied to my account! ( See Attachment 4. ) Of course, I called Chase immediately and they passed me on to the Fraud Department. There I spoke with XXXX, a supervisor who told me that an investigation had been done, and that since my password was used, I was to be liable for all the charges. She said a letter was sent to me, advising me of the decision. The conversation was very short. When I asked her if she would call me back if we got disconnected. XXXX said, we wont get disconnected, When I asked if there was someone else, I could talk with about this matter, she said I could look that up on XXXX. As of today, I have not received the letter. I have had an account with Chase for over 25 years. During most of that time, I have maintained four accounts with an average balance of more than the {$75000.00} minimum balance requirement to receive free checking. Usually more than twice that amount. In the past I have received excellent service from Chase including several warnings about suspicious transactions. As stated above, I even received a warning about these fraudulent transactions. However, in this instance Chase has let me down. The fact that a thief somehow hacked into my account and was able to make six consecutive fraudulent withdrawals and Chase was not able to stop this is outrageous and unacceptable. I contend that given the information that I have presented above, Chase should restore all of the charges associated with these fraudulent transactions.
