He also said it is not cut and dry rules, and that clerks are often using their own intuition when it comes to suspecting fraud.

If you're black, banks and low-life tellers will profile you and try to pull this shyt regardless (even if the amount is small).

I remember going into the bank to withdraw like $1700 from a savings account. The money had been in there for a while so there is nothing suspicious about where the money came from. The teller not only suggested that my driver's licenses was fake, but that my U.S passport (which I just so happened to have in my purse) was also fake. I actually asked her, "are you serious?"

She asked me security questions (my mother's maiden name) and told me the answer was wrong. I was like, "ma'am, my mother is in the car, would you like her to come in and show you id as well." They ultimately made me sit down with a manager to have my identification verified. Not only that, the manager simply verified my identity but did NOT give me my money. Instead, she sent me to back of a very long line.

Once I get back to the front of the line, a different teller (white also) who didn't see me go through verification started questioning me again. I had to flag the manager down and be like "can you let her know." That shyt was so demeaning. I would have closed my account on the spot if I wasn't in a rush to do something else.

There was nothing about me that screamed ghetto unless you automatically assume black people are ghetto. They do this shyt regardless of your socioeconomic status, where the money came from, how long it's been there, and how frequently you withdraw money.

I closed my checking accounts with them, but kept the savings because it's the only bank account that I have in city that my parents live. I live up north and use my school's credit union but they sometimes physically deposit money in my account (they aren't savvy internet users).

However, after reading this story, I realize how mad I still am about that experience. I am visiting home Friday and I now plan to go to that bank and close my final account. I will just open one with a different local bank.

In B4 Cacs and c00ns try to blame the victim- No matter how much she spent its her MONEY and nobody would dare do this to an older white person under the same circumstances :snoop:




DETROIT (WJBK) - Imagine inheriting thousands of dollars only to be told you can't touch that money. That's happening right now to a woman in Detroit. Her entire account is frozen and now she's worried she won't be able to pay her bills. The single mom says her son's graduation party is on hold, and she is not sure how long the lights will stay on in her home. The thing is, she has all the money she needs but it's worthless. "I feel like my money is being held hostage," says Christina Anderson. "Every single dime is tied up in that bank." And her bank, Bank of America, says it is just doing things by the book in the name of protecting customers. This all started with a personal tragedy. "I had a little brother and he passed away, and my dad had a lawsuit from that," Anderson explains. From that lawsuit, more than $50,000 was wired into her Bank of America account on May 20. The procedure, she was told, was to place a two-hour hold on the money while the bank investigated its origins. After that, she was told, it is hers to do with as she pleases. And she did - withdrawing thousands just days apart without a problem. "I went to two banks before that, drew $8,000; drew $5,000; no questions," she says. "'Just swipe your card and enter your pin, ma'am.'" Then her car was totaled on May 24, so she went to get another $5,000 at the branch in Dearborn. "The guy behind the counter started asking me where did I get the money from, and a bunch of questions" she says. "And I told him, I feel that's none of his business, so I'm going to go to another branch where I feel more comfortable." And when she went to that second bank -- "They told me my account on hold, it has been frozen for fraud." So Anderson started asking questions, and admittedly got upset. "'I feel like you guys are discriminating against me; is it because I'm black?' And then ... she told me to leave out the back because I was upset," Anderson says. "Yes, I was [upset]. I was mad because these are my funds; why can't I receive my funds?" Since then, she claims she's been in the dark as to why. In the meantime, bills and hungry mouths are starting to mount up. "My rent is due today," she says. "I have four children. What am I supposed to do? I've got to be at work tomorrow morning. I work in West Bloomfield. I have no vehicle to get there. What am I supposed to do when I haven't done anything wrong here?" Bank of America issued this statement regarding Anderson's situation: "We've frozen the customer's account under the terms of our Deposit Agreement and Disclosures. In the agreement, if at any time we believe a customers' account may be subject to irregular, unauthorized, fraudulent or illegal activity, we may, in our discretion, freeze the funds in the account and in other accounts they maintain with us, without any liability to the customer, until we are able to complete our investigation of the account and transactions." "I thought I was being safe putting money in the bank, but it seems I'm safer putting it under my mattress," Anderson says. A banking expert told FOX 2 that under the Patriot Act, clerks undergo training to spot fraudulent activity. He also said it is not cut and dry rules, and that clerks are often using their own intuition when it comes to suspecting fraud. Bank of America has not given a timeline when Anderson's case will be settled, but she said she was told it could last up to a year.



Doesn't help that the patriot act makes it easier (basically carte blanche) to justify these actions. If you don't disclose where/how you deposit funds they can just put your account on "ice" and claim "possible fraud". :mjpls:
