Fraudulent Bank Accounts Opened Under Existing Customer Identity
Fraudsters exploit existing customer relationships to open new checking accounts and initiate ACH withdrawals from linked external accounts. Banks treat the transaction as legitimate because a valid customer profile exists, leaving the victim with an overdraft and no money returned. Customers discover the fraud only after the unauthorized account already drained funds, with no proactive notification from the bank.
