Ways You Can Protect Your Identity
All it takes to for someone to empty your bank account is a one signed check taken from your mailbox and some acetone. A piece of cellophane tape is placed over the front and back of your signature, and then the check in put in a pan of acetone. This process is known as “check washing” and it takes roughly 30 minutes to clean everything but the printer’s ink from the check. Your tape-covered signature and the printer-inked information are the things that remain intact.
