On XX/XX/year> I checked my bank account on my mobile banking app and noticed a check that was cashed for {$500.00}.

They had also typed the name XXXX XXXX on the " pay to the order of '' line along with an address listed as XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, OH XXXX typed on the check. Everything on the check was typed except the signature- which isn't legible and isn't my husband or my name. It isn't XXXX of our checks. The check was dated XX/XX/year> and the money was removed from my account on XX/XX/year>. On the back of the check on the signature line there is a hand-written statement that says " For mobile deposit only at XXXX bank XXXX XXXX I called my bank - Citizens - on XX/XX/year> and reported to their fraud department. They gave me a claim number and told me that they would start an investigation and that would be concluded within XXXX business days. They also told me that if I didn't hear from them by today, to call them. Today I called Citizens at the number they gave me and now they are telling me that it would take between XXXX weeks before their investigation is complete! They said they couldn't give me an update about their investigation and said that the fraud department person who took my report made a mistake telling me I would hear within XXXX business days. I filed a police report after I initially called Citizens and called Citizens back that day and gave the fraud department the report number. I am so angry- I did everything I was supposed to do. I don't understand why I should wait until they complete their investigation when my bank let XXXX take this money ( a lot of money! ) out of my account- if they looked at the fake " check '' it is so clearly fraud! You'd think they would better protect their consumers! I am an older adult.
