My bank let me cash $5,000 in USPMoney Orders. The teller used my neice's checking account!?

I was a victim of money order scam although I didn%26#039;t know it at the time. My neice and I share the same name. She had about $5,000 in her checking account and I only had $800 in my one and only savings account that I share with my son. I found a job on line with an %26quot;Art Gallery%26quot; and they had sent me US Postal Money orders asking me to deposit them in my account and then to send the money out of the country. I was not aware of money order scams as I just moved from out of country. I figured that if I could just cash the mo%26#039;s it would save me time to follow the %26quot;art gallery%26quot; instructions. The teller apparently thought my niece%26#039;s account was mine and cashed the checks for me against my niece%26#039;s acct. The teller checked my ID. A week later my neice gets an overdraft and the bank freezes her account. Please tell me that the bank was wrong all the way around and should not have used her account or let me cash the money orders. The police recieved my report.

The bank is wrong and they can%26#039;t do that to her unless your name was on the account also.|||yes, the bank is wrong for that, I just hope your name wasn%26#039;t on the account as well.|||let me see if i got this right. You sign up for a deal where you get a money order depsoited into your account and then you send them the money out of the country???? Do I have this right??? I Do???????

*SMACKS YOU OVER THE HEAD WITH A PHONE BOOK!*

This is a classic scam and now these morons got YOUR (Niece whatever) BANKING INFO and thus pilliaged your account. The tellers are mindless drones they just sit there and process the stuff given to them. When the bank saw what was going on they froze the account to PROTECT YOU (Niece)! Thus not only was the 5k from the money order gone but whatever was in that account at the time of pilliage is now gone. That is why the bank froze your account they saw this scam develop but couldn%26#039;t stop it until it was too late. Hope you learned from this cause it cost you BIG TIME!
