    didn’t trust them

    So they choose a payment method where the bank account and routing number are printed in plaintext on the document. 🙄

    If someone has access to both your bank account and routing number, they could make fraudulent ACH transfers and payments out of your account. In other words, you could wind up being scammed. https://www.sofi.com/learn/content/what-can-someone-do-with-your-bank-account-and-routing-number/

      Yeah, but you signed the check so the bank knows it’s real. I see no further possible security transactions beyond what I’ve explained.

          Sure, but only if there’s a line to sign. Cuz banks, my parents, and my grandparents taught me that if you sign things then people can’t steal from you.

          Friend_of_Satan, are you trying to imply that somehow something negative could occur after you put your signature on something???
