I looked at the bank information and realized Wells Fargo had sent the money to acct. ending with XXXX which was not associated with my account., only having one associated acct. with XXXX XXXX. 
XX/XX/22 called customer to inform them of the last 4 of acct. ending XXXX was not my account and was informed the bank had close my case and blamed me or an associate for hacking my account and sending money to XXXX XXXX. 
XX/XX/22 went to a branch because it was hard getting info. from customer service other then notes that was read to me stating hacker send money to my account and closing my fraud case.The Banker XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX stated to me a Fraud Case had never be established and no investigation was never done and Wells Fargo denied my Fraud Case talking to me over and over again and a fraud case was never established or one investigated, I REALLY THANK XXXX for all his help, got little help else where. 
I established 3 case for the $ XXXX $ XXXX {$990.00} with case numbers ON XXXXWells Fargo needs to be investigated, how many time has such happen to the consumers, when they send money from accounts and don't know where the money is going or were it should go to. 
WELLS FARGO sent money from my account to an account not affiliated with my account and as a consumer I should not have to wait for they to figure out who they sent my money to.XXXX  XXXX stated to me that Wells Fargo sent the money to acct. ending XXXX and should replace the money. 

Don't know if this is the standard practice, but this practice should be looked into, i'm waiting to hear from the bank. 
Problem started with the withdraw from acct. XX/XX/22 Contacted the Wells Fargo Advocacy Dept. XXXX Bill Pay Claims XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX-Consumer Financial Protection Bureau XXXX XXXX XXXX
