Anyone else here affected by the VAHOINTE1 ACH fraud?
Last Thursday I had 2 ACH withdrawals taken from my checking account at USAA, both for $295.95 to a payee called Vahointe1. This was followed soon thereafter by a reversal by the payee of one of those charges back to my account. I have never heard of this payee and I certainly never authorized those transactions.
I was out of town at the time but when I returned on Friday I reported the transactions to the fraud reporting section on the USAA website, and followed up with a phone call this morning. It's still being investigated. Hopefully I won't need to close my checking account and open a new one but I'm gathering all the info I need just in case.
When I first found this I thought it might have been some kind of glitch in my checking account, but it appears to be widespread, affecting customers' accounts at many different banks. There's currently a lengthy thread about this on Reddit:
Anyways, just a heads up.
