If you don't write checks, you are not in control of your money ! Try and get some answers or action if there is a problem with a "direct" or "auto-pay" account. Once they have your money, they won't want anything to do with you. Auto pay only benefits the entity you are paying. In this day and age, your digital info can be ripped off even easier. There is a price to pay for easy and convenient.
Checks can be a very easy way to steal money. Someone doesn’t even need to see one of your checks to make fake ones. All that they need is your name and account number. If they actually have one of your checks they now have both of the above plus your address, phone number, and bank routing number. I rarely write checks and I be been keeping less and less in my checking account.
I only write a check if I have to and no other option to use. When I get a check from anyone who is buying something from me, I always wait 31 days to make sure it is cleared. I warn them in advance I will wait a minimum of 31 days before sending the item. I make sure they agree in advance. If they put up an argument with me, I tell them to look somewhere else. I will not deal with them!
I'm not concerned about this at all. Even if the scammer was somehow able to fake a check of mine, as soon as the scammer deposit's the check, the bank sends me a notification via email and text. Personal checks take time to clear giving me plenty of time to put a stop payment on the check.
Digital payments, have you seen how secure ATT keeps your personal information (70 million plus in the past few months). I’m sure ATT isn’t the only one.
I got a letter in the mail saying I've yet to cash a check that will be expiring soon... with an option to request a reissued check Idk it's says it's in the amount of 600.00 ..... Also a deadline date I have til oct 1st To request it I must sign it
In rural towns they still use checks for transactions and charge you extra for plastic and paying online. That is if they have an online fully functional website.
I have a PO Box to help protect my mail and packages- always there at a specific time, no delays due to weather, and it’s all literally under lock and key. And it only costs me less than a grande Starbucks latte every month.
That scanning of incoming mail by USPS is not reliable. Frequently they miss many mail pieces. Also, USPS does not stamp most of mail. There is no way of knowing when it was mailed.
Check Fraud, should it not be written as Cheque Fraud which is the correct English’s? The word “Check” has different meanings “Safety Check, Examine and Verify”. The word “Cheque” means “a printed form on which you write an amount of money and who it is to be paid to”.
@SAPFM - EXACTLY! 💯 Next advice: just get a chip in your hand, problem solved! 😳😳 They are preparing everyone for that. You will be doomed for h*** for ever if you accept.
Do not keep large amounts of money in your checking account.
This! I also don't have my savings account connected to my debit card.
Use a Sharpie pen when writing checks. The permanent ink soaks into the paper.

Even the people who is worked at the post office steal your money, they caught the the postal service stole so many checks at his house
Don't be greedy... that is the best way to protect yourself from scams.
Nope. the best way is don't be ignorant, and always think he or she can be trying to scam you.

A lot of the older generation still write checks

@@taylorembach8559it is 2024, get with the program or suffer the consequences!
But always check the additional fees for paying online! It can really add up!
I get a cashier's check from my Credit Union...because I won't use checks. I use bill pay. If I mail a check I send it certified.

Rent paid with a check no cash or electronic accepted .
That is very sketchy 😮😮😮
@@a.e.7988 lots of landlords don't want to be carrying large amounts of cash.
Wait “or” not “and” if you make out a check to two people! So you have to both sign if it is “and” if it is “or” either can sign !
I heard telegram fraud is on the rise too 😂
haha

Speaking of 'mail theft' recently in Northern California usual suspect ( Chicharo'n) it's shame
Isn't there a black ink pen on the market specifically protecting against the check washing?
yeah sure how else can we get the matrix to accept the CBDC... engineering consent
The last time wrote a check was 2010

Oh yeah! I remember checks back in the dinosaur days.
Dinosaurs wrote checks? Who knew?
Shred everything with information. Stop sending checks. Accepting checks.
@@SAPFM Checks, is like holding up a sign!!!😮😮😮
Catch Me If You Can, starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hank’s, is a film to look at twice. For a reSon!!
I miss the times when women wore skirts or dresses to their knees, not way, way, above.
Look at the guys attire - classic, decent, professional
Are checks still being used in the USA? In Europe we ended that about 20 years ago.
Never visited Europe don’t know what they do .
Its the BANK TELLER RESPONSIBILITY TO SPOT THE CHECK WASHING. ITS SO FKN OBVIOUS…!
I tried cooking checks. I don't like the taste. Yuck!
Do people still use cheques? How quaint…😂
Many landlords don't take cash.
Who still writes checks these days?
90 year olds
Americans

Stop writing checks TODAY. Stop physically going to the bank. Stop going to the ATM. Stop using cash.

I agree. I carry chicken, duck, goat with me so I can barter them for other stuff. Try stealing my goat, I dare you.
