Default Re: I need some help ASAP, identity fraud.

My mom had her best friend steal money from her like this.

All the thief needs is the routing number, account number, and check number (which is on EVERY check) and they can steal your identity without even stealing your checks.

Her best friend stole something like $5,000 from her over the course of about 8 months before she caught on to it.

(They were using it to pay off their CC bill)

Her bank did end up refunding her, but didn't prosecute her friend because they said the amount of money wasn't worth it.

You need to change your account numbers first thing in the morning.
