RE: Microcheck Systems, Inc./Fraud/Forgery
Fraudulent Microcheck Systems Account No. 3942320974
Personal Account of Michael Bianchi — No.193-176489-8
Houston, Harris County, Texas
Dear Ms. Nemrow and Castro:
Please be advised that the undersigned has been retained to represent
Microcheck Systems, Inc. in a claim against your bank for damages sustained when
Michael Bianchi opened a fraudulent account in the name of Microcheck Systems, Inc.
This account was opened at Washington Mutual Bank's Town & Country branch
on February 6, 2002. At the time that Mr. Bianchi opened this account, he was acting
as a contract accountant for Microcheck Systems, Inc.
Your bank has been previously supplied with some of the details surrounding the
occurrence which was outlined in a November 18, 2002, letter sent by Mike C. Smith,
President of Microcheck, to Washington Mutual's forgery department. | am attaching a
copy of that letter for your review. Apparently, Mr. Bianchi altered legitimate
Microcheck Systems, Inc., customer invoices and diverted the receipts/payments to his
fraudulent Microcheck Systems account, as well as his personal account. Both of these
accounts numbers are set forth above.
Our investigation has revealed that this fraudulent bank account was opened by
Mr. Bianchi without appropriate documentation or authority from Microcheck Systems,
Inc. Your actions in allowing this to occur constitutes negligence which has resulted in
substantial damages to my client, Microcheck Systems, Inc. Under Texas law you are
charged with the duty of ordinary care to make certain that persons opening bank
accounts in the name of corporations have appropriate authority and documentation.
Your failure to follow these procedures constitutes negligence both at common law and .
under the Universal Commercial Code (UCC) of the state of Texas.
DEPUTY
|
BY.A A
1! am attaching an embezzlement breakdown document prepared by Microcheck’s
staff accountants. At the present time our verified damages are in the amount of Thirty
Six Thousand Two Hundred Twenty Nine and 59/100 Dollars ($36,229.59). We have
reason to believe that our damages will exceed Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00).
We are hereby putting you on notice that we are looking to you to reimburse
Microcheck Systems, Inc. for the damages they sustained as a result of your negligence
in allowing the fraudulent account to be opened at a branch of Washington Mutual
Bank. ,
Please give me a call within seven (7) working days so we may discuss this
matter. If | have not heard from you within a reasonable period of time | will take
whatever action is necessary to protect my client, including filing a lawsuit. Please be
advised that if a lawsuit is filed we will seek additional damages such as statutory
attorneys fees, penalties, interest, etc.
Your immediate attention to this matter will be greatly appreciated.
