Fraud and FedNow payments
09/08/2024
We are considering allowing customers to use FedNow to receive instant wires. The concern is our customer receives the wire and spends the funds and a day, two, or more go by and we receive a claim to return the funds due to fraud. Which bank would have liability for a fraudulent wire transfer, the sending bank or the receiving bank? Can you provide the references that I should be looking into (UCC, Regulations, etc.)?
Discontinuing cash advance service

Can a bank offering VISA cash advances stop offering cash advance services?
Does one mistake make a business an MSB?
09/01/2024
We have a commercial customer that cashes checks, but they are not registered as an MSB because they have a policy to not cash checks for one person over $1000 in one day. We found one instance of checks cashed over $1,000 for one person. Are we required to have the customer register as an MSB, or can we verify their check cashing policy and continue to monitor the account for any further instances?
Lost Debit Card
08/25/2024
We have a customer that lost their debit card but didn't notify us until day five. Under Visa's zero liability policy, would this be considered "gross negligence"? The charges do not all add up to $500.00, so are we required to give the customer any credit at all?
Consumer Protection for mistake in loan payment transaction
08/25/2024
Scenario: A bank employee inadvertently makes an error while processing a payment authorized by phone by the customer, for example, customer authorized his/her personal loan monthly payment of $100 but the employee processes a debit for $101, or $96. Could this be considered an unauthorized electronic fund based on the amount error? Can this be considered a violation of other consumer protection law/reg? UDAAP?
