Banks are supposed to hold very large amounts on checks until cleared because of fraud

This happened to me. A check taken from my mailbox and altered. They got me for $6000. This is rampant now. Best to pay all your bills through your banks bill paying option so there are no paper checks to mail and money is transferred directly to the vendor. Do it thru your bank. Do not do it thru your vendor. You do not want to give vendors your bank info because this can also put you at risk of someone at the vendors selling your information to a thief. Just do bill pay thru your bank setting up each vendor account thru your bank and pay bills that way.

This happened where I work, though the "cut and paste" was much more seamless. They lifted the ink and put new ink down. We happened to catch it right after it cleared, because the vendor was calling asking about the payment. When I looked at the check online, I saw the altered name and address. It took the bank awhile to fix it, even though I reported the fraud right away. I even googled the guy's name and address and found more information that I also gave to the bank. It was one check for just under $10K. I still remember the guy's name, and it was over ten years ago.

Well, I got my package the next day. I have a strong suspension that the mail lady took my package. Anyways she wrote on the tracking slip it was delivered , so the place I ordered it from said , well the tracking says you had it delivered to your house. Another time I had a package deli ered with tracking number and I received it , but I looked at the tracking g paper closer and the seller noted that I requested the package to be delivered to the neighbor if I wasn't home and I gave to OK to do that !! That was to cover the sellers @ss incase I didn't receive my package she wouldn't be responsible with replacing what I ordered !! I'd be responsible because I gave the OK for it to be delivered to a different address..Id never ask for that im home all day... I did get my package , but when I saw what she did I confronted her about what she did. I did not give my permission to be delivered somewhere else... I will not be buying from her anymore. These days you just can't trust anyone ! The mail person was fired. I was missing lots of mail and some packages were delivered to the wrong house, I complained and others complained about same thing , so they fired her. Thank god.

They didn't catch obviously forged checks. At that point it's the bank's responsibility not the customers.

That taking a photo of a check has to stop. In the 90's banks started to use micro-print on the checks. Look closely at the signature line - it is not a line but tiny words that a photocopier or a photo will blur. Crooks don't even have to steal your checks, they can "borrow" them to to get the account info and then put them back in your mail box. I showed how easy it was. I took a scan of one of my blank checks. Then using a simple imaging program I bumped up the check number, filled out the rest, signed it, and cashed it with a phone app. It went through. Those routing numbers on the check are in magnetic ink too, so why do banks allow photos! It defaults all the fraud prevention they put on them.

If the check is stolen from your mail box, report it to the Postal Inspectors. It's a federal crime, not just a local police crime.

Thank you for this very informative video. We must double check everything so that criminals can't make any damage to our bank account.

I am a victim I had hundreds of dollars stolen out of my account and ended up having my account closed and everything because of it they put a total mess of chaos in my life even got me locked out of my personal online account such as Facebook and Google it was a disaster

Checks are inconvenient and make you vulnerable to fraud. I stopped ordering checks for my checking accounts over 10 years ago.

Never put a check in an unsecured mail box

This is the same thing that happened with the housing market in 2008. When they started sending loan docs by wire. They were able to forge loan docs. By the time people found their homes were gone.

Stop using checks!

When I first heard about mobile banking I said all they've done is made it easier for you to get ROBBED.

Banks save money they tell you it's convenient they just don't want to pay for paper envelopes and postage!!!

So, question is: how do you prevent check frauds???

Ever hear of locking mailboxes? I have one and unlike my neighbors, I have never had any mail stolen.

If a criminal deposits a check via mobile app, then the criminal has an account at the bank. Why can't the bank figure out what account the fraudulent check was deposited to and find that account owner ?

For exmp, in small town, every banks must required to posting thieves photo every month ...

Not my area of law, but I recall from law school that a check that is not "properly payable" is the bank's problem. The bank must refund amounts paid on checks that aren't "properly payable." That includes forged checks. Banks have insurance directed at covering bad checks.

"It's actually just theft......." lol....NO SHIT!!! lol

My bank put restriction on the amount of money I can personally deposit. What they still can’t do is limit who they can accept checks from. Its convenient for their customers but unfortunately criminals also can take advantage of it. Its so easy to get paid because by the time the bank’s security department has uncovered the fraud, the crime’s done.

Why would the bank limit deposits ?

You should be checking your bank accounts on a regular basis that is actually set up by your contract. In most institutions, you have 72 hours or so to find fraud. Fraud alerts for levels of checks and instruments is essential to management of money. You need to set down with a banker and decide how to deal with this.

That is good advice. In my prior job as head of accounting, I checked the bank accounts every day, which takes just a few minutes. Even better, we signed up for our bank's program that requires us to pre-register every payment with them. If a check would be presented on our account that we had not written and registered, the bank would not honor it. At first I thought it was a nuisance but it became an easy habit and eliminated the chance of this type of fraud. We could also register those vendors we regularly pay by ACH and those would go through automatically. Really a great system!

The Bank doesn't ask for 2 pieces of I.D. anymore like they use too.

The bank should be responsible for cashing those checks

Well I just learned everything I need to know to go into business for myself and that I probably won’t get caught. This news station should be called crime university.

If the robbers deposit the check then the bank know exactly who is cashing these checks.

Nope.

This is why I’ve NEVER ordered checks for my accounts.

With Positive Pay, you bank knows in advance the check amount. An altered amount will be flagged.

Couldn't they have a QR code on checks that applies only to that checks # ? Or some other way to differentiate a fraudulent check from a real one. Similar to how they do with money?

That’s scary!

The banks definitely don't seem to care if their customers are scammed. They definitely care if THEIR money ends up disappearing though!

It hoot past the bank because third party checks are not reviewed until a complaint is filed. BofA did this in my account. The check was hand-drawn, but because it was cashed at Wells, BofA did not a it ration it.

I bet if a politician in your city had their cut, cut, there would be no problem figuring out who is involved and they monies returned in a reasonable amount of time. Which the banks themselves define as 30 days.

Pretty obvious that those banking institutions need to Up their fraud detection game. Mobile Banking should be an Opt-In feature with financial institutions to help avoid some of these issues. Get a different bank….😳

Using a mailbox that locks would cut down on stolen mail and checks.

Why wouldn't they drop their outgoing mail at the post office? Putting outgoing checks in your home mailbox is lazy and not smart.

Push a button and make the world😊 I remember in the 60s they couldn't even think about doing this

Fye ass method 🤣🤣

Banks don't validate checks unless and until someone (the victim) challenges the transaction.

Not for nothing but at least 30 years ago in Canada, our post office installed locked post box stands. So, checks don’t get stolen. Sure, no individual mail boxes outside homes but fraud and identity theft is rare. These banks of 45 boxes are located on the streets in our neighbourhoods.

Wtf is wrong with you? Go to hell

If banks did not offer these services, the customers would be complaining about that. Monitor your accounts online to make sure there are no authorized transactions. If you have to mail a check, send from the post office or business center like Staples. Never use curbside drop boxes which are susceptible to all kinds of fraud. I know of one instance where somebody put glue in the slot of the mailbox, so quickly dropping it in the slot would cause the envelope to stick so it could just be removed by the scammer who would get a check to alter.
