OMG! Someone stole a check out of my mail box

and cashed it!

signed my name

it was for the boby shop for the repairs on my car

i am so freaked out now

I am going to put a fraud alert on my accounts

and change my checking account number - b/c this all started with a lost rent check!

(I used to leave my landlord a check in my mail box- she never got the May check- I had to stop payment on it)

I am freaking out now

scary!

We just had something similar happen with a credit card we very rarely use. Someone's been racking up charges in the UK and France.

Definately change your accounts and put a fraud alert on them.

And when they cashed it no one asked for ID? That would pisss me off more. Unless they went to a check cash place. Balls either way.

OH WOW...that's scary!

I'm a little confused.
If it was for the body shop, who was the check made payable to?

Re: OMG! Someone stole a check out of my mail box

well- I just put a fraud alert on my credit- just in case they stole a cc application

Jake is running my credit to double check

but it doesn't look like any new accounts were opened

the banking thing is annoying- I am going to have to change about 10 automatic payments

but first I need a PO box- b/c my bank refuses to send my new account number anywhere BUT my house Chat Icon

which defeats the purpose- since I think someone is stealing my mail!

Wow. I am so sorry. I can't believe some people do this. Can your bank figure out where it was cashed?

Strange that they would cash it someplace and use their account#.

I wonder if was delivered to the wrong address, like an office and they deposited it in error.

Re: OMG! Someone stole a check out of my mail box

What balls!!

When we first bought our house the former owners would come by and take all the mail, and even cashed a check we received from my great uncle who couldnt attend my wedding. We had all our mail forwarded to the post office, then went and bought a mail box with a lock.

BTW we pressed charges against the wife, she got 2 years probation
