I've had a similar experience with BofA. Somebody took a few hundred dollars out of mychecking account via EFT using a fraudulent merchant ID. I filled out a short form, had the branch fax it in, and the money was returned within a couple of days. (It wasn't near enough to affect my actual spending... I'm just glad I check my account activity online once a week.) However, I also changed my checking account number following that incident, which (while simple to do at the bank) caused a few small hassles elsewhere. -- Brad Beyenhof . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . http://augmentedfourth.com If the world were merely seductive, that would be easy. If it were merely challenging, that would be no problem. But I arise in the morning torn between a desire to improve the world and a desire to enjoy the world.
