Theft of chequebook and distribution of cheques
17-Aug-2023 (In Cheque Bounce Law)
My sister is studying medicine abroad...And we misplaced her chequebook after she was gone abroad. Later we went to the bank to inform that we lost her chequebook and ATM card but the bank refused to close the account. Then they said to tell your sister that send an email from the registered email but she said that I don't even remember the email. Later we came to know that someone stole the ATM and chequebook from our home, it had not been lost. And we tried to get to that person but we came to know that it was a set up for us...That guy distributed our cheques to some persons whom we don't know...Know those persons are threatening us that they will file a case against us...We told them that that guy stole it from our home...even the signature on those cheques are fake...Now we are in trouble, we don't know what to do? As per our knowledge the cheques are 3 month valid and I think it has been more than 4 months since we lost that cheque book... please help. we don't know what to do?
Make a complaint to the nearest police station or urgent basis.
Also write a letter to bank and speed post it... Keep the speed post tracking recipit for record.
It may be a case of house theft.....

As I see, you guys have been bit negligent towards your issues, its a serious mistake. Sorry for being bit harsh but attitude like this can get your sister in very trouble as it's her bank account and her cheques that are being misused as per you. Tell your sister to write from her e-mail id to the bank stating her account no. and the date and issue that someone stole her cheque-book & ATM, so the same should be blocked or closed. File an F.I.R. regarding the same asap and a complaint against the person threatening you. For more information, you can contact me.
