We called a local attorney here and explained the situation and their response was "You knew you owed the money". I am just going to sell what I can, give that to them, and hope I can get enough later to pay the difference. |
Oh Alycia- I am so sorry this is all happening. It certainly does sound as if someone was trying to scam you. I don't understand how the check could have been run through, cleared, a receipt given to you and then NSF show up this much later. And just how did the Sheriff get involved in all this? You are certainly not guilty of check fraud if you have a hand-voided check and a receipt from the facility. If I remember correctly, the breeder runs a local grooming or pet salon? Business do not hold checks for this length of time. They are required to have regular deposits because they need to pay quarterly taxes and such. Something sounds really fishy to me.... I wouldn't want to return Maddie either. Why can't they just let you keep her and make payments. Do you have any jewelry of value that they could hold and then return once you are paid in full??? Gosh, I just don't know what else to say. I'm praying for you guys... |

I agree - she was under the impression that it was paid - and this comes up 3 months later ! It just sucks :( I can' believe these peopel won't work better with you Alycia |
It was only 2 months ago, my mistake. This transaction was on November 19, 2006 and I have a reciept plus the voided check. It is a huge mess. I have done nothing but cry most of the day. I am going to take everyones suggestions and sell EVERYTHING! I have furkid clothes, jackets, a crate...etc etc...so tomorrow I am going to work on getting pictures and sell everything. If I donate my eggs they will pay me up to $1500...but that could take several weeks because I have to go for exams and then get hormone injections etc etc. |

Confused. I might have missed something, but if you paid by cc, why did you give a check? |

It was like a starter check? Hubby had just applied for the card and while we were waiting for the card to arrive in the mail they sent us checks to use against the card until it arrived. We asked the breeder if she would accept one of those checks for the balance on Maddie and she said yes, if it cleared when ran through the machine. So I called the cc company to make sure the check would be valid and they said yes it would and we told them the amount and what it would be for. |
I am so sorry to hear about this situation. Very confusing. Have you personally verified that nothing has been charged to you? Do you have an authorization code. You should, if the check was run through a verification company. If not this doesn't make a lot of sense but with that being said...have you talked personally to the breeder? I would not give her back...this sounds fishy...I would call an attorney..there are a lot of attorneys that will give you a free consult. Do you have a copy of the police report? Why did the breeder not call you? Something does not feel right... |
I have an authorization number on the receipt. The sheriff said he had the returned check right infront of him. I haven't seen it myself. I have mailed copies of everything to my cc company. The only things on the check are my husbands signature and the word VOID in the store owners handwriting. No endorsement on the back or anything. |
Why don't you make copies of front & back of check and receipt and take it to the sheriff's office along with the originals to show them if necessary, just don't hand those over to them. To show you paid in full and have authorization for credit card check. I would talk to them in person...something is not right with this at all... |
have you seen the Sheriff in person? If not I would call the sheriifs department and verify this. What a mess. |
