If the depositor does not notify the financial institution that he has not authorized the transfer, the financial institution may honor the instructions. If the depositor notifies the financial institution that he has not authorized the transfer, the financial institution shall cease making such transfers until it has determined that the transfers have been authorized by a party to the account or are otherwise legally required or permitted.
