impacts corporate America every year. Criminals too often accomplish their mission is by counterfeiting or changing valid checks that were written on corporate accounts. When checks are presented to the bank for payment, if the bank can’t visually see a problem with the check, they have no way of determining that it has been altered, or what the original information should have been.
In response, most banks have implemented electronic reconcilement programs, allowing companies to provide their bank with a file containing a complete list of their valid check data. If the check is not in the file, it doesn’t clear the bank! This virtually eliminates the problem of stolen or counterfeited checks.
