I am not giving anybody hope here.

Even tho the money paid is a fraud money, I still stand on my words. That email isnt from a US citizen. It might be some people trying to help the person involve recover his/her money.

Been following this thread and quite honestly, something here doesn't seem right.

Last I checked, before any bank in the US closes your account on suspicion of fraud (especially when it comes to cash deposits), they write a cheque to your registered address of the amount they think you are legitimately entitled to (I suppose the amount in your account prior to whatever transaction triggered the suspicion/investigation.


While I do hope the OP gets every dime of hers back, I think there's some redaction in this story and its part of the reasons why a refund from the sellers is being delayed (as they know the nooks and cranny, twist and turns of this business) and also responsible for the OP not going straight to the authorities yet. Plus believe me, setting up a ring like this isn't easy, anyone who has set up a ring this big wouldn't want to throw it away over less than N5m as they easily make more than that

You know mayorall's shop (pickup for goods shipped from overseas), if you have everything clean and good, you should get the necessary authorities involved and do the needful as you've been advised.

Also, as some have already pointed out, asking you to refund and sweeping the matter under the carpet is rather weird and unorthodox (think of the millions of people that might have fallen victims over the same scheme, refunding and sweeping under the carpet is rather a suspicious way to resolve as most authorities would prefer to go deep down to the root and prevent a re-occurrence).

About the sweeping under carpet, we thought so too. Involving d a lawyer already.
For the rest, working on that.
Thanks

You are absolutely wrong. If your account was closed based on fraud suspicion, the funds in the account will be frozen. I'm a living witness. All those balance checks will come after all investigation have been done, concluded and they couldn't figure out how you run your account. They will simply tell you, you are a high risk.

I have something relevant to tell all of you. Do not be fooled, the lady might be fooling you all, the lady might have even be fooled by the police, the police on the other hand can make up messages to extort money from you all.
Everyone is trying to make money this days. I can setup an SMTP to send you that exact message from my house.

What to do: Insist that the lady presents evidence being screenshot of details of the lottery scam so that you can use it to get the money from the BDC.

If the lady is serious, she would not only present the police email, but police evidence that the money was obtained from lottery scam.

Good luck.

Hello house. I have an urgent situation at hand. Jan 12 2017, I requested for USA cash deposit from Mayorall into my Bank of America account for 4000$ thereabout. On 13 Jan, I received a credit of 5372$ into my account which was more than I requested for. I requested to return the excess since I didn't have enough cash to pay for the excess at the time. Then I found out Mayorall had bought the funds from Meetmal. Meetmal asked that I keep the balance and pay for it at a reduced rate to her. So I made payment to Mayoral and Meetmal for this funds.
March 2017, bank of America closed my account claiming that someone paid in stolen Money into the account but they were unable to let me know the particular transaction and the bank refused me access to the funds in the account.
On Friday, Nov 3 2017, the USA police visited the address on my account to look for me regarding this transaction. Apparently the real owner of the money was told that she won a lottery and asked to pay some amount to claim her lottery price and part of the funds was paid into my account. So the money that Meetmal and Mayorall paid into the account was proceed from a stolen funds.
Now the USA police has given me the option to refund the scammed victim or they would report the matter to the federal authorities. I contacted Meetmal and Mayoral on Saturday to update them and even gave them the screenshot of the email the New York police sent to me.
I have asked Mayoral to refund me the 2 million naira I paid to him and the 513,000 naira I paid to Meetmal so that I can refund the scammed victim.
They have been coming up with different excuses and along the line brought in Tooltip who Meetmal claims she bought the funds from.
The trio is asking me to tell the police to give them another proof that the fund was stolen when its already stated in the email the New York police sent to me. They have refused to refund my money if I don't meet their stupid demand.
Please see screenshot of the message sent by the New York police and tell this people to credit my money.
Mayorall was stupid enough to call me a thief this morning on top the mess they have put me into.

This is not the first time Meetmal fund is causing an account to be closed. Sometime middle of this year, I bought some funds from Meetmal into a friend's account, the bank held the fund and closed down the account. Till today, Meetmal is unable to explain why the payment she made into the account caused the account to be closed.
Mayorall and Meetmal please refund me for the fraud money you paid into my bank of America account.

Here it is, About 10 months ago, she contacted me about a paypal fund and I told her it's already sold. She asked if it is possible she gets bank deposit, but unfortunately before her payment entered, the fund had been already been sold, then I contacted meetmal and she requested for the her USA account details and I gave her, but she couldn't send it for about 24hours.
Egonne then said when can I get more fund, I told her I can't promise that am going to refund her, I went to bank and process her refund of 2 million naira. She confirmed the said payment, by evening of the day, meatmal sent a receipt that the payment had been made and I called and told her, she paid in the money and promised to send me the balance, but when she discovered it was meatmal that made the payment, she went ahead and made the balance of the payment to meatmal.

After 10 months, she told me there's an issue with the payment and her account had been blocked, she sent some screenshots from a mail. I told meatmal and she said she's going to contact account the depositor, she reverted and told me those people requested for evidence from bank, I told her, but she said she can't present anything and resolved to threats.

Solutions I have presented to her.

1. Get evidence or statement from bank

2. Since it's police that contacted you, it should be an official matter/issue. Please drop the police post details, either police officer in charge at the police office or anything so I can send someone to confirm the official Lodgement of the matter and I present that to meatmal and the said bdc.

3. Today, I told meatmal to request for her login details ( change password and drop the email details to confirm the mail message).

No one is saying she is not going to be refunded, but evidence is needed. That's all.

Well, I'd say this is dependent on your bank then.

I know personally of BoA, they'll write you and tell you that you're being investigated and still write a cheque. Had something similar earlier this year, a Cheque was written for a certain sum and the other portion was being investigated or so.

Long and short, had to open another account for the time being.
