I was scammed in may of 2005 , it was a nigerian scam. I am a dog breeder. The amount was 4,000. My OLD bank is taking me to court. I know i dont have much of a chance but I am going in there as a honest person. The bank has not mentioned yet about the check , they just say they gave me a loan and I have not paid them. The FDIC has been sending special alerts to executive officers about these scams for long time. I feel just as violated from the bank as I do from the scammer. My story is somewhere on here i just cant find it. I will let ya'll know what happens.

That stinks that you were scammed almost 2 years ago and your former bank is just now taking you to court . . . you would think by now it would be over and done!

Wow..it took them 2 yrs to do that. What baffles me in ur story is that they say its for a loan? Seems to me they are trying to cover their mistake. Do you have a lawyer? In my case the bank wants to put a judgement on me to pay them back. I am just thinking of going bankrupt and end it right there...

They are covering up a mistake, a procedural mistake. I thought to myself I 'll just take the jugdement, but then I said, I am innocent. I took that check out of good faith, so I will still fight my side of the story. They money I would be paying for a lawyer I could just as well pay back the bank!!. My point now is to cost them money. Everytime their attorney files a paper it costs the bank hundreds. Everytime I file he has to respond. They havent even mentioned the check not once in the court papers. I bet the attorney hasnt read the file. He will the hour before the court day. You know they think we will all just file bankrupcy, or just take a judement.


Fight your fight. Let them work. You never know , you never know. This is what I keep in my head, I will go the ScamVictims website and post I WON!!! I beat the Bank. LOL

I can't remember . . . did you ever contact the Attorney General's office in your state? Or the media? (the media would have a field day with this one!)

I did not. I breed pitbulls. I live in an upscale neighborhood. My dogs are so quite, no has had any complaints since they dont know they are there. I really didnt want to attrack attention to myself as the public has a great fear about the breed.

Is anyone familar with this 24 hour rule according the banking federal regulation CC. I m not sure how this works?

It is often called the Midnight Law.

    The Midnight Deadline Rule (Rule) found in the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) establishes both the time permitted for processing the check, as well as the penalty for exceeding the time permitted. The midnight deadline (Deadline) is midnight of the next banking day following the banking day on which the Payor Bank received the check.1
