Fake BTL Checks in Circulation |

Check before you cash that BTL Checques! And we don’t mean those multi
million dollar ones made out in haste before the old management left the building;
those ones are fine. But what’s been appearing since the weekend are a
number of fraudulent Atlantic Bank Checques.
BTL management has become aware of at least 30 of them in circulation. All
those that have surfaced so far are made out in the amount of $500. So far they
have appeared as third party transactions, meaning they have been cashed at
merchants by individuals falsely claiming that the checks are legitimately made
out to them. Well they aren’t and BTL is advising businesses and individuals
to check IDs and make sure you know the individual before cashing BTL checques
from Atlantic Bank. We’ll have more on this tomorrow. |
