Connecticut
I think I was suckered by an overseas money transfer scam. I was sent a cashiers check from Washington Mutual.
Being skeptical I drove to a Washington Mutual bank branch ( I am a noncustomer of this bank ) 2 days ago and they verified and cashed the check I then wired the money overseas .
Still being skeptical I saw a photo on the internet of a fake Washington Mutual cashiers check it looked exactly like the one I cashed.
I have heard that UCC prevents the bank from charging back the amount.
Could I still be charged in anyway by the bank to collect the money even though they should have known it was counterfeit?
