Question:
Hi I live in Israel and a while back one of the big Israeli banks where I use the ATM often deposited money in my US account, not much like $350 but I have no idea why. It could have been legitimate or a mistake I have no idea. I asked the American bank what it was and they said they didn’t know I should ask the Israeli bank and give them the account number. So I sent the Israeli bank a message saying I got this money and the date it occurred, and gave them my US account number and bank name. They said I need to contact the US bank and ask them to open an investigation. I told them the U.S. bank told me to contact them. What do I do in this situation? Do I need to keep spending my time trying to determine what the deposit was?
Answer:
If you can call the bank and ask them to open an investigation that is best, after that there isn’t much more that you can do. However be advised that the Israeli ban may come back to you one day and demand the money bank, and hopefully they won’t charge you interest for it.
Best wishes
