HEADS UP EVERYONE: YEsterday while looking at my online bank statement activity I noticed a wierd transaction on my acct bank statement. Several years ago I refied with them and they used Taylor Bean and Whittaker, we all know what happend to them. A new bank picked up my loan and possibly yours to if you refied with TB&W as well. I believe that my bank acct info has been compromised by a company called ALLIANCE tele number on the check conversion voucher says 1 877-886-0144. They used this ck con. voucher using my name the same way i pay my mortgage online to Cenlar. This is the only bill I pay online using my bank routing number and acct number on the bank website. Upon googling this alliance co and tele number many others have also been victims of this scam taking 29.95 out of their checking account a common denominator with many of the vicitims are T B &W and Cenlar Bank. I also found mention of a Wells Fargo bank/Cenlar connection so I am believeing it has to do with a breach in Cenlar Bank system. I have contacted them and they are starting an investigation as well at my bank. I have contacted the atty general filing a complaint and also with the FTC. Check your online banking and look out for this CHECK CONVERSION VOUCHER for 29.95 or some other amount that you did not authorize! IT IS A SCAM..google it check conversion voucher scam and read up on what others have posted about this scam..IT happened to me it can happen to you to!!! best of luck..will keep you updated...barbara... trying to keep us all safe out here...

Thanks for the heads up. I also have Cenlar, formerly TB&W. Just checked my online bank statement and did not see the charge.

GREAT!!! keep an eye on it!! You will notice it right away!! there are ALOT of us out here who have been hit by this company ALLIANCE not quite sure how they are obtaining our bank info..but find it really odd that TBW and Cenlar is involved in many of our claims!!
I sent all the info I have to Cenlar regarding my suspicions..
Hopefully they will respond instate and not outsourced country. The lady with a very strong accent did not understand what I was trying to tell her????

If you can't understand someone on the phone, ask to speak to a supervisor or someone that speaks English.
