No, of course they aren't worthless. They give you the routing number, account number, and next check number in order to print your own fake checks on other people's accounts.
- MerelyMortal 4y agoSure, there is some value in the information printed on the checks, but they're worthless because they can't be redeemed as they've already been redeemed. These checks cannot be "stolen" for "millions" contrary to the title.
- IncRnd 4y agoThe checks disclose 100% of the information that is needed to write new checks against the accounts. Those accounts could be completely drained from this. That accords with the title.
- 4gotunameagain 4y agoAre you saying that if somebody writes me a check, I can drain their account by writing new checks? How would that not be super abused in the wild ?
- IncRnd 4y agoThat is exactly the case.
