I have gotten a few myself, usually when I use my daughter's computer to do FC stuff instead of my own. The complaints just go away after a while.
Just be careful about doing that, because they could block your account or ban you at some point if they feel you are routinely violating the rules.
Completely different scenario but I know of another user who was banned for a 'rule violation'. She got paid from FC by check (she had no PayPal account and wasn't interested in getting one). Her husband has extreme OCD and is a control freak about money (old school mentality where all the money belongs to/is controlled by the man b.s.) and he always insisted that any checks made out to her be signed over to him --> she would endorse on the back and then he would countersign and go deposit it into the bank. They've been married for 50 years and apparently have always operated their finances that way and she didn't fight him about it - so I guess that's all on her. The banks never refused to cash or deposit checks so he was determined that it was okay to do and that was how they were going to do it - end of discussion.
Anyway - because she was paid with a paper check and the canceled checks came back to Fusion Cash - at some point she got a warning from Fusion Cash that this was a violation of some sort and that she should stop having someone else signing the checks sent to her. Husband didn't care about the rules (he knew better) and continued to do it that way. One day she tried to logon to Fusion Cash and her account was closed. When she eventually got through to support to determine why she was banned, she was told that she had been warned about that check cashing practice and still continued to violate the rules. End of story; cash flow stopped. (And she was one of those actively cashing out every single month users).
The moral of the story = they really aren't playing around when they say "Don't do X."
That is stupid on so many levels. First off if the account had both her name and her husband's name on it then he didn't need to sign the FC check. It only needed her signature to deposit it in to the account. Now if he cashed it then either she needed to be present or he would also need to sign it.
I do not see what business it is of FC what is done with the check as long as the person it was written to signed the back. I don't even know how they would know because with thousands of members I doubt they sit and look at the back of every check they issue. They do not get the cancelled checks back in hand anyway. It is all electronic. Surely there is more to it.
When she got the first warning did she not try to explain what the deal was and why there was a 2nd signature on the back of the check?
Then we go in to why she allows her husband to control her the way he does. I would not put up with that. She needs to open her own checking account that he doesn't know about. Have her own email that he doesn't know about. Have the checking account stuff ALL delivered electronically. Then get a PayPal account to deposit the funds. Assuming he controls the mail. And if he does maybe she needs to open a post office box so that when the bank delivers debit cards they can send them to the post office box. Seems like a lot of trickery but her husband sounds like a mental case.
