Credit Card Signatures Are About to Become Extinct in the U.S
It turns out that a signature on a bank check means nothing. Neither does the payer name on the check. Not the amount in cursive. Nor does the check paper.The only things that are checked are the digits of the amount, and the account number.The rest of the check can be complete garbage, and the check will go through and the bank will pay it. Then the banks will blame you, the account holder.I learned this the hard way.
