These precautions may save you from being lleeced by some bad check artist; TO THE MERCHANTS: Have some one person responsible for the approval of checks cashed. Counter chocks are for the convenience of local patrons who have forgotten their owrn check books. Beware of the counter check which is already made out and presented by a stranger. A counter check is easily identified, as it is clean-cu- t on both ends, having not been torn from a checkbook. Insist that endorsement be made in your presence. If a check is already endorsed, have the party endorse it again, and compare the two. Have the address written below the endorsement, if the customer is unknown. Don t allow wives to endorse husband s checks and a ONLY THE REGISTERED PAYEE is authorized to endorse check. You can be charged for a check without the proper endorsement without time limit. All government checks bear the following warning in the lower left hand corner, Know Your Endorser Require Identification. See that this warning is followed not only on government checks, but on all checks. Many government checks are being stolen from mail boxes and cashed under pretense of being the rightful owner. Insist on the one offering a check identifying himself. Some perosns ance for the sole purposeacquaintof cashing worthless cheeks. Honest peonever resent investigation. ple If you are victimized and dont swear out a complaint, then are an innocent partner with you the swindle. B'ollow through. eLts help each other to protect ourselves. TO THE FARMERS: When selling your cattle and pioduce, be sure of what kind of pay you receive. A draft is not a check and may be turned down without liability by the company on which it is drawn. If you are not certain of the worth of a draft, or the person with whom you are dealing, bring him to the bank, and let us wire his company. KNOW HOW VOU ARE BEING PAID! Large cheeks and drafts should be mailed for collection and cleared before delivery of yoor merchandise. BANK OFFERS SPECIAL SERVICES If a local check is which you question, presented call the bank. We want to protect you and your business. With questionable customers, unknown to you, send them to the bank to cash their checks. If they cannot be cashed, we have1 facilities for wiring for the trans-fof their funds, and will extend every consideration to legitimate customers. The business people met last Fuday evening to study means used by dishonest people to pass bad checks. Merrill Smith, Deputy county sheriff spoke. He said that 15 bad checks had been passed in Payson recently and that most bogus checks are made on counter checks and made the following observations: Demand positive identification. Scrutinize checks closely and watch for irregularities. Don t hesitate to ask questions of stamper. Know your endorser. Ask yourself this question. If the check is returned, can I locate the endorser and get a refund of my money? Forgers make aquaintances with clerks in social life then get sales cleiks to identify them. It was decided by the business men on a suggestion of Roy Broadbent that on the face of all cheeks Know your endorser Requite identification would be printed.
