[quote=plm]I’m getting the feeling I should have listened to everyone on this forum to run away. But if the wire clears, I don’t see how I can avoid renting to them.[/quote]
I’m out on this one… so many warnings. ‘flu’ brings up the demand transfer that I mentioned w/ acct and routing numbers. The only way to close it is to close the account. You will be responsible for any overdraft costs.
[quote=plm]Had no idea they were going to do a wire transfer instead of cash.[/quote]
Against better advice, you handed them your account number. What did you expect?
[quote=plm]So in my case, since I am receiving the wire transfer everything should be good. But I just have the feeling that I missed something. Maybe I’m just paranoid because they never seem to do what I ask for.[/quote]
Are you serious? Did you look at flu’s statements on demand drafts – they can effectively forge a check on your account using the info you provided.
I agree with flu, refuse the wire transfer and walk. I’ll add, close your account and transfer all funds into a new account with a new account number.
Directly @ plm, several people on this board actually rent out properties, some more than one. You are choosing to ignore their advice after requesting it. Your risk – I’m out.
