A few weeks ago 2 checks were lost or stolen in the mail. Then some crook wrote a $950 check to themselves & made it look like we made the check out to them. I saw the photocopy.

It’s possible that the maid took a check from the checkbook as I don’t recall if I hid it or not. I might’ve forgot to do that.

She was here on 11/13 & the check was cashed on 11/21. I can’t do anything about it as accusing her of anything can get me sued the bank manager said.

I won’t hire her again just to be safe. The name wasn’t one we recognized.

It was cashed in person. My husband found out sbout it then blocked the account. I heard this is a common scam & checks that are under $1000 are considered a misdemeanor if they’re caught.

The police probably won’t do anything about this I was told. How do they get away with this? Has this ever happto anyone on here?

How can we keep this from happening again other than using online checking which my husband refuses to do?
