Beware of check scams: Banks warn of fraud involving fraudulent checks
13WMAZ
MACON, Ga. — Century Bank and Trust in Milledgeville says they see quite a few scams.
One scam they say is hard to detect is check scams.
With online and remote deposits, operations director for Century Bank and Trust Cindy Hill says check fraud can be harder to detect.
“When the checks are deposited — remote deposit — it's very difficult to tell how the check was altered, because it's just an image,” she says.
