A common type of scam involves fraudsters who send counterfeit checks and then request that the recipient transfer the funds to their account. Initially, the fake check often passes the bank's first level of verification, causing the funds to be temporarily credited to the victim's account. The scammer then urgently asks the victim to transfer the money, often before the check is fully processed and identified as fraudulent. Once the bank discovers the check is fake, the funds are removed from the victim's account, leaving them responsible for the transferred amount. This type of fraud is widely known as a "check scam" and has become increasingly notorious due to its deceptive nature and significant financial impact on victims.

I was given a referral from a business partner for a client that wanted to purchase 500 External Toshiba Hard drivers 1 TB. Company name Teopista Trading Company/David Mulungi from Kampala, Uganda. Total Purchase $54,570.00

He paid with a check that was sent via DHL, the check was deposited into my bank account with Bank of America, and later to my other business account with Bank of America to complete the order. I learned about the check possibly been returned almost 5 days after the deposit was done , Bank of America still was uncertain if the check was going to return or not, and I had to wait until Jan 4th to find out. I contacted the client who sent another check from Uganda to cover the first check. I never transferred the money back from the second account into the account that the check was deposited waiting on clearance of the second check. When I found out about the second check being returned, I attempted to login in to the online banking for Bank of America to transfer the funds and found out that they have closed my account and they were keeping the funds that were in the account. In the meantime I am dealing with the other department of the Bank that handles the other account that now has a negative balance of $42,560.00 . Balance that I can't transfer from the account that was closed by the bank and they decided to keep it.

I have been a victim from the client that wrote me the forged check and Bank of America for not allowing me to transfer the funds to the original account.
