Re: A Company took money out of my Ck Acct without Authorization
First, go to the bank and see if they can arrange for the return of the money. The EFT requires that there be authorization for the transfer. If there is no authorization, the bank should be able to get the money back from wherever it went. Do that quickly since your ability to question bank statements and transactions expires quickly.
While that is going on, you may want to consult with a lawyer near you to determine whether further action will be necessary or appropriate.
