Question

How do I correctly log fraudulent hotel charges and then the credit the bank made to the account to correct the charges?

We recently had 4 fraudulent transactions hit our account, showing up as 4 separate charges from a hotel.  The bank has now credited our account (also in 4 separate credits).

 

My question is, the 4 fraudulent charges are sitting in my "for review" transactions and the 4 credits from the bank are there as well....how should I properly log these? 

 

Do I just log the 4 fraudulent transactions as normal hotel charges and then credit the same expense accounts with the credits from the bank?  Or is there a different way that fraudulent charges should be accounted for?
