Chase Banking did not refund my fraudulent purchases of 3000 dollars Watsonville, California

Since the pin number was being used to withdrawl cash, the bank suspects one of two things. 

1). It was an inside Job.  either one of your mother's friend's, or family members commited the crime.

2).  You mother did not safeguard the pin number, and someone found the pin number, and got ahold of her card, and used  it.  The banks have been using the "Safeguarding of the Pin" as an reason for not reimbursing for Fraud. 

I have a question for you that could help to disprove theory #2.  Did your mother ever use her ATM card at a gas station, movie  theater, or anywhere else to pay for goods or services? 

If the answer is yes, then it could have left her open for fraud, because savy criminals have been placing devices inside the card reader, that captures the information on the card, and the criminals retreive this information later, and they then produce atm cards, and use the pin to clean out the account.  This practice is knowm as skimming.

The fact that she cancelled her card, and probably got a new pin indicates 1 of two things.  1).  Either this was an inside job,or  2) she went back to the same merchant who's machine was set up for  "skimming", and they got her information again.

Your mother is a victim, and proving skimming will be very difficult.  Even if you can prove skimming took place, you only have 30 days to file a fraud claim.  If it takes you longer than 30 days to prove fraud, you will not get your money back.

Tell your mother to stop using her atm card to pay for transactions, where she is required to enter a pin.  Have her use her ATM card, as a credit instead, so no pin will have to be entered instead. 

She needs to change her ATM card again, this time she needs to be careful where she uses it.  If she needs cash have her go to the bank, but be careful there too, because skimming was even found to be done at banks.

The details are Someone got a hold of my mothers Credit Card And her pin number. I know it wasnt her card because she still had her card and hasnt used it since the theif took out money numerous times. Burglaries were happening sporratically for around a month my mother tried to tell chase about this and chase said since the person took out money with an authorized pin number that there was nothing they could do about it. that was to about a some of 1300 dollars. all fraudulent too because my mom never makes withdrawls for anythin over 60 dollars and the crook had obviously fraudulent charges making substantial withdrawls at over 400 dollars each time. 400 dollars is also over the daily limit that my mom has on this card. If my mom wanted to take out 400 the bank would not let her, So how did this criminal with a clone card do it???

My mother changed her card hoping that this was just a one time inconvenience but we were not so lucky.. It happened again with a brand new card. This time totaling at around 1700.. Bringing the total to near 3000 dollars. this time it was also about a month span . The weird thing is Chase banking is supposed to notify you when you make fraudulent purchases that are not of your normal spending habits. Since my mother never spends over 100 dollars at one time how come Chase never notified my mother of the 400 dollar spending splurges of the identity theif?? The reason chase told me mother she was denied.. "Because it would inconvenience them too much".. The man was very rude..
