Complaint narrative:
Hello XXXX  friends : Im writing to tell my sad story with the hopes that you will understand and recognize your own part in the tragedy to the extent that you extend a gracious refund of the {$XXXX} that I have lost. After such a response my trust in XXXX will be restored, along with my serenity. 

I was trying to rent an apartment for my family in another state. The transaction seemed legitimate, so I proceeded to make the first payment. The renter offered me various options to make the payment, XXXX of which was XXXX. 

When I saw XXXX  as an option, I recognized it as the option my trusted bank -- XXXX XXXX XXXX -- uses and stands behind, so of course I picked XXXX. When I went to send the money, I was asked if this was a payment to an individual or a business -- almost exactly like XXXX before sending money ( see image ). I selected business, expecting that ( similar to XXXX business payments ) XXXX offered purchase protections. After sending the payment, I received a confirmation text from XXXX. I wasnt warned or asked to confirm that this transfer is irreversible, or that there were zero protections ; I was only asked if this was me, which I confirmed. I called to confirm the transaction with the recipient and immediately realized it was a scam. The XXXX  transaction showed it was processing and that the transaction was awaiting a fraud check. I called XXXX and immediately told them I wanted to stop the transaction. After multiple transfers and multiple agonizing holds I was invited to file a claim, but nobody seemed to know about how to stop a transaction that was still processing and awaiting a fraud check. 

You sent {$XXXX} to XXXX XXXX sent from account ending in XXXX to XXXX Confirmation : XXXX If you didnt make this transaction, please contact us. 
XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX XXXX claim # XXXX

Issue: Closing an account — Company closed your account
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I was a victim of fraud. 
On XX/XX/year>, I received a letter from Bank of America that they were closing my account for fraud. A few days before, I received a check prepaid for the work and brought it to the bank to find out if it is real, the teller said that it can only be found out by depositing it. The teller deposited the check and told me to wait a few days. When I returned home I found another letter with another check and decided that the first check was probably fake, so I called the bank to tell them to stop the check. The bank agent on the phone said that this was impossible and that I should just wait for the check to clear. As a result, my bank account was closed and I was banned from the banking system for many years. Next, I sent my first dispute to the XXXX XXXX XXXX that was indicated in the letter from the bank, in response I received that All information is correct, the decision is unchanged. I called them and they told me to go deal with the bank. The bank sent me back to that service and said they couldn't do anything about it. I made a few more attempts to make an dispute in the XXXX XXXX XXXX- unsuccessfully. I went to the police and got a police report ( XX/XX/year> ), did the dispute again - I .was again denied resolution of the issue. After that I went to the bank several times and called, showed them proof of several new checks that then came to my address, showed XXXX XXXX XXXX denials, police report- they said they could not help me with anything. 
I can't open bank accounts, I can't get my paycheck, I can't do business because the bank refuses to address the problem and fix the issue.
