If I needed money and I went to my bank and made 3 deposits buy put no money in the envalope will I get introuble for fraud.

You bettcha.

And your legal fees will dwarf the piddly amount you could possibly get.

So I'm going to go to jail or will they give me chance to pay it back?

Depends on the bank and the amounts.

Altura credit union.. and its for about 13 hundred $.. I. Have never had anything negative in my account.. I really needed the money desperately I didn't think id b arrested for it! Omg.. I thought they would penalize me by making me pay it back and freeze my account until I did.

First each time you don't put money in, will be a fraud, so they can change you each time. But may add them together, to equal a felony. Since it is a bank, they could even change you with Federal crimes, not just state crimes.

Since they will know 1. it was not a mistake 2. you did it on purpose 3 you knew it was wrong


It will be a serious event, you will be arrested and have a change to post bond. If you get prison time or if you get probation may be your ability to pay it back before court. Along with a fine that can be in the 1000's

It is up to them. Have they found out yet?

And they will the next business day when they process the ATM.

No.. pretty worried. Lost my job and my 2 year old daughter needed kimo. Needed the money.

They don't know yet its been 3 days and my accounts still good.

Hello n:

You can't change what you did.. But you CAN change how it's viewed, which will effect what happens to you. Hire a lawyer TOMORROW. Promise him ANYTHING.

Start looking for a lawyer... you are going to need one. And soon. THAT you can count on... just like the sun rising tomorrow.

Well how will your child be with you in jail, and where will money for bail, and who will be caring for the child with you in jail.

If you still have the money your best thing would be to take it in and act like you just discovered you forgot to put iit in the envelope. If you can cover the money in the morning you may be OK, if not, ( of course if you can't pay the money back , you can't hire an attorney in the morning anyway)
