Found this interesting article on ezine today:

Ok guys…I’m going to be perfectly honest here just like I always am and hopefully you’ll take my advice here so you don’t end up getting scammed like I was when I was looking for no Chexsystems banks in my local area.

I’ll start off by saying that getting scammed out of $300+ was something that I probably could have avoided IF I had just used this one technique that comes naturally to most of us anyway. But since I was stuck in between a rock and hard place at the time, and would have killed (not literally of course) for a checking account at that time I went ahead and let myself get scammed out of lots of money two times over. Was it a stupid thing to do? You bet ya! But since you personally know how it feels to be stuck in Chexsystems and to be totally unable to live a normal everyday life…sometimes it gets to you and it makes you make choices that you normally would not make.

So what was it that I did? What did I do that cost me so much money and grief? It’s much more simple than you might think actually, and probably not much more different than what might be doing right now. I was simply looking for a way to find no Chexsystems banks that would approve me for a checking and or savings account. In the process of that search and my then desperate state I gave in and was persuaded to buy two different lists from two different websites. Each totaling over $120+….and what was on the list? The same sh*tty information that I came across in those free list providers just looking for an ad click. No really…it was the same and was simply just repacked.

After the first time I thought to myself that surely I can’t possibly get scammed two times in a row right? WRONG! Not only did I get scammed again, but it was worse this time as the list was just 3 banks that were not even real FDIC insured banks and were hundreds of miles away.

Then started my year long journey to find everything out for myself…

So when I put out my guide to the public there was thing that I made sure that I did…I provided everyone PROOF! Because I had learned from my past mistakes that if I had looked for proof from people that claimed to have the answer to all my banking problems, I would have never been scammed in the first place.

What kind of proof? Proof that they are indeed stuck in Chexsystems, AND that they were able to over come that and find real FDIC insured no Chexsystems banks, and most importantly have proof that they now have checking accounts.

It’s as simple as that folks…if you want to know if someone is the real deal and can really help you, and knows what you’re going through, and isn’t just looking to take advantage of your time and money…simply ask them for proof.

Please don’t let Chexsystems or Telecheck get in the way of living a normal and happy life. It doesn’t have to be that way; there are many banks that offer checking and or savings accounts regardless of your situation in these systems. I’m still in Chexsystems and have two checking and savings accounts with the works at real FDIC insured banks. Let me help you out of this situation that I was once in too and help you find no Chexsystems banks in your local area.
