Or do.
If a victim of fraud, file a police report, go to the bank with it and get your money back. Then change banks as they are incompetent.
It's the banks problem now.
It's always the banks problem to keep your money safe and authenticate things.
It's insane this kind of theft is possible.
Also, OP got the money back:
"two and a half months after the theft — the stolen $5,000 was back in my account."

- OutOfHere 2y agoYou deserve to lose it. Not everyone gets it back.
- adriancr 2y agoI wont, in europe its pretty much impossible to do that identity theft scam. Someone taking cash off my debit card would need to do it via 3d secure and me approving it via phone. Someone doing this via check in a bank would get them laughed off... I'm not sure people even know what those are still. Someone trying to use my identity to withdraw money at a bank agency... they'd need an inside man and police would catch that idiot on complaint... plus since corona going to bank agency is via appointment... I can also complain to government entities if banks wont help, that would lodge official complaint from consumer protection agency and they need to do due diligence to not get fined...
