Funny and intriguing story about a man, a bank and a fake check for over $95,000.

The laziness of banks has annoyed me over the last few years. Combined with their ability to change legislation, it’s extra annoying.

While working as a bank teller during highschool I was horrified to find out that banks are not required to inspect the date on a check. That seemed completely backwards to me, and then I found out that it was so they could reduce the complexity of the huge “check clearing houses.” Cheers to the wonders of modern technology.
