Has Anyone Lost Money With A Brokerage Firm How Do You Go About Filing And Reporting It

Can I get investigated by the IRS or a bank if I deposit too much money?

Reena is incorrect. When you deposit that much cash, the teller is required to complete a currency transaction report and file it with the federal government.

A currency transaction report (CTR) is a report that U.S. financial institutions are required to file for each deposit, withdrawal, exchange of currency, or other payment or transfer, by, through, or to the financial institution which involves a transaction in currency of more than $10,000

You could deposit half the amount in one bank and the other half in another bank. But don't leave the money lying around. It could be stolen or lost in a fire.

My real estate agent lost my earnest money!?

Don't let the others criticize you, you are right the agent screwed up and you are due the money back. The agent is showing his/her true colors because any agent with half a brain would know to pony up the cash out of pocket to make the problem go away since there is no question the money is owed.

Now it is up to you how you want to be reimbursed and you have options. The easiest way is to speak to the agents boss, the broker of the office where he works and explain the situation. The Broker will explain to the agent what your other options are and how it is in his/her best interest to pay up immediately.

Second is to contact your state real estate commission. Often state real estate commissions have a special department to investigate and act as mediator in cases like this that will not only serve as judge and jury to have your deposit refunded, but to punish the realtor for his violation of administrative law. In my opinion this is the route you should take. All you need to do is fill out a complaint form and from there it is in the hands of the real estate commission.

The third option is to formally sue the agent and his/her broker in real court for your actual damages plus punitive damages for the agents errors. This will require you to hire a lawyer, but your legal fees can be included in the suit. Small claims typically does not award punitive damages.

Lastly you should be aware that it is common for agents to carry errors and omissions insurance for this type of thing, so it isn't like they won't be able to come up with the money if they lose.

How can I get my money back from a crooked Stock broker?

Contact your state's attorney general's office, consumer protection division and they will advise you where to go from there.

How long do I have to report a car accident in the state of California.?

When you have an accident, report it to DMV within 10 days if:

Each driver (or the driver’s insurance agent, broker, or legal representative) must make a report to DMV using the Report of Traffic Accident Occurring in California form (SR 1).

How can I get back my lost money from a scammer?

There are so much internet scammers especially on dating sites. I was scammed on a dating site last year, couldn’t let it go because I borrowed the money and it was a huge amount of money. Contacted all I was asked to and still couldn’t get the scammer. Had no choice than to hire a private investigator and a hacker who saved me from debts. Learnt my lesson never to give out money to anyone on dating sites after all I went through. Search for Gary Cobb’s blog here on quora and try contacting him. I can’t put up his contact details here for security reasons.
