@abc7la: A bakery owner in L.A. found it strange when someone ordered 1,000 cupcakes since it's not really what she's known for. She later learned it was all a part of a large counterfeit check scam. #scam #losangeles #abc7la #bakery #cupcakes #fakecheckscam
The bank messed up. They should have recognized this was a scam and recommended and extended hold. I hope they give her the money back.

This is obviously really sad and awful for the small business, but equally it’s a sign that American Banking still needs to catch up to modern standards. In Europe, cheques are less than 1% of retail.

I work at a sign company and we get scam emails all the time that look like legit orders except they always order way more than what we usually get. It’s typically obvious that it’s this type of scam though….

if im getting this right, they write a stolen check from a business or company to you then when it goes in your account they take the money back out for themselves

the bank that actually saw this cheque, CONFIRMED it was all good should be fully liable.
I think in such cases it does eventually fall on the back
