We have become aware that someone or several someones are freely passing around fraudulant checks with our information on them. There seems to be quite a few of these checks floating around. We have alerted the authorites and the banks to the situation and passed along the information that we have been able to gather.
There is no mechanism available for us to directly stop the activities of these criminals or we would have made use of it. We do not encourage or condone illegal activity in any form.
If you receive a check under suspicious circumstances, or it looks unusual, don't accept it. There is no such thing as free money.
Anyone forwarding you checks and then suggesting you deposit these checks from people or companies you don't know are not acting in your best interest. Especially if they are then asking you to forward some of that money somewhere else, but you can keep a portion of it for your trouble. FYI, that is money laundering and is a crime.
Be shrewd. Look carefully at what you're being told. Weigh whether it makes any sense. Don't allow yourself to be pressured into anything. Be smarter then the criminals.
