I’m as anti-lawyer as anyone.
But, methinks this fellow should sue...big time!
Time to lawyer up and sue the everliving piss outta all involved in this mans unlawful arrest. The bank, the tellers who made the fraud call on the check, the police,,, everyone....
They must have thought the guy was named “Washington Mutual”. I would say much more about chase, but I would hear from their lawyers. Watch it!
Chase is gonna be sorry they lost his business when he gets his money from his uncle the Nigerian Finance Minister.
I think Chase may be taking some of that mortgage bill away. If not, i hope he gets the bank staff involved a free three day weekend in jail for their part of this.
Something really smells.
Well, sounds like he did bounce some checks in the past.
On general principles, I don’t like lawsuits. But in this gentleman’s case, I make an exception.
IMHO, if he files suit, takes in front of a jury, and said jury award his Fifteen Gazillion Bajillion Dollars, I’m all for it.
Or, better yet, enough money to buy Chase Bank. Vengeance is a dish best served cold (Old Klingon Proverb).
But don't worry -- our financial system is sound as a dollar!!
A year? Ain’t very bright, is he, if he’s just now thought... Hey, I should talk to a lawyer...
It would be amusing if Chase ends up using an argument that the man has no standing as an illegal alien. I’ve seen the way they make money off of illegals, so if someone at the bank saw his name and made an assumption...
Advice for Mr. Njoku:
When you get your big settlement check from Chase, go to a different bank to cash it.
Just another ‘dead beat’ trying to extort money from a poor put upon bank. Maybe they can get him locked up again but this time under the jail so they won’t have to deal with him.
Didn’t he have a friend at Chase? I thought everybody has a friend at Chase.
Poor guy fell for the Kenyan scam letter:
Dear Ikenna Njoku,
I am a high ranking official of the United States and am looking for individuals to help me move money out of the U.S. Treasury and send it to people like yourself, seeking a better life. In order to participate in this plan, I need you to send me your bank account number and I will deposit the amount of $8,463.21 in your checking account, without any risk to yourself, whatsoever.
I hope to hear from you urgently, because Republican legislators are trying to close down this plan before I completely bankrupt the entire country. Time is of the essence. Answer immediately.
Respectfully Yours,
Barack Hussein Obama
Resident of the United States
Something doesn’t make sense. His account was closed for bad checks? Yet they only took $600 to cover checks and there was still over $8000 in the account. Doesn’t sound overdrawn to me. If his account was back in the black, it doesn’t follow that they’d bother to close the account.
SUE THE BACHELOR’S CHILDREN ! ! ! ! !
I didn’t know that Kafka was an American.
This is the incompetence that I expect from Chase. Yes, I am a former Chase customer. First they acquired Texas Commerce Bank, which was a decent outfit, and they left it alone. But after a while they had to get rid of the local identity, and place it under the Chase identity. Eventually the whole company was evident as a Charlie Foxtrot. Chase started sending statements to an address I had lived six years previously and refused to correct the situation.
This person’s experience is far worse than mine. He should get the most vicious shark lawyer he can find.
Every one on this forum understands that bankers are federal government snoops right? This is a great overview:

This banker was doing a commendable job.
More and more industries and occupations now have have required government snooping and reporting requirements. But I am sure many on this forum subscribe to the “if you didn’t do anything wrong you don’t have to worry” philosophy.
This could have been drug money right? It could have helped save someone from addiction and crime.
