Bank wire question....
Has anyone ever heard of the following scenario........
A client of ours recently purchased content direct from an "alleged" content provider in Florida.
There were 2 transactions, first a cashiers check was sent for $23,000 for HD scenes and then immediately thereafter a wire was sent for $17,000 for additional SD scenes.
The "provider" first says "There's an 11 day hold on the cashiers check from Bank of America" (never heard of a cashiers check taking so long)
Now keep in mind this all happened on MAY 6. So finally after a month of delays, the provider finally says on JUNE 9th.... "we were just notified by our bank that our account is frozen because the wire sent by you is suspicious and suspected fraud" .... The sending bank (BofA) knows nothing about any problems, and has processed over 1,000 wires for the company.
So, has anyone ever heard of a bank deciding a wire looks suspicious after having the wire for 4 weeks?
